Guest Post: 28 Years and Counting by Carrie Leeth

Earlier this year, TMP Books put out a call for submissions for two anthologies, requesting stories from cancer warriors/survivors, and from cancer caregivers. We received several submissions, but not enough to fill either book, so for now, the books are postponed. When I notified the writers who had submitted, one of them suggested running the stories on my blog, and I loved the idea. My goal was to share people’s stories, to give encouragement and hope to other cancer warriors and caregivers, so why wait? I’m sharing the stories each Tuesday, in the order they were submitted. Today, I welcome my sister, Carrie Leeth, to the blog, sharing her story as a lifelong caregiver: 28 Years and Counting In 1994, my father had been diagnosed with throat cancer and had been battling this for some time, losing weight, not able to work. He had a feeding tube placed before he started taking radiation treatments two times a day, for six weeks, so my brother and I took turns driving him to treatment...

New Writing Outlet - Come Join Me!

 Dearest Blog Readers (and yes, I do mean "dear" to me!), I realized it's been a while since I've updated the blog so I thought I'd come share why. At the end of January, I began writing regularly on Substack . My posts go live in a newsletter on Tuesday mornings (this week, it was Thursday, but that was just a mistake on my part.) Tuesday, 3/11, I will post my latest health update, but most of the time, I'm just writing essays about life.  I hope you'll come over, subscribe, join my private chat, and let me know what you think! (It's all free - I don't charge for the newsletter or the chat.) I look forward to seeing you there.  PS. I have some fun and exciting news coming in a couple of weeks, too!

Our Home Health Care Experience

Blogging got away from me this summer. At the end of July, I got sick with what the doc eventually said was either the flu or covid, but it was too late to test by that time. Then Tim got sick and ended up in the hospital for a week with covid and double pneumonia. He’s home now and recovering well - I’m grateful and he’s happy to be home again. I decided to share our experience with home health care. Since all of this was new to us, I don’t know if our experience is the norm, but thought I’d share in case it’s all new to someone else. The hospital filled up while Tim was there, so once they got him on his feet without oxygen, they sent us home because they needed the bed. But they ordered Home Health Care, saying he needed physical therapy, and that’s what we expected. Tim left the hospital on the 19th. To simply things, I’ll list the dates and duties of Home Health below (we also had 3 doc appts scattered in the middle of all these dates, and perhaps only introverts and hermits like ...
