While driving home from Costco today, Eric reminded me that his parents left Austin one year ago today.
His parents were here for 2.5 months while I was in the hospital for and after my bone marrow transplant.
With me being a stay at home mom, his parents knew he couldn’t do it all and were so willing and able to help.
Eric and I were discussing all that I could NOT do when I got home verses now:
Drive – my leg was numb again from inflammation in my my body and therefore brain which numbs up my leg.
Walk – I could walk with my pole to balance me but I had zero endurance…seriously, walking around the house exhausted me.
Cook – again with the exhaustion thing.
Pick my son up from school
I KNOW there is so much I am forgetting (YES, I still and probably always will have chemo brain).
It is still crazy to me how much change in a year…SO CRAZY.
