Corona frenzy

So I think I’ve whipped myself into a frenzy about this. At first I was hesitant and resistant. I didn’t want to cancel my trip on Amtrak on Friday to Washington DC to speak with senate staffers but my family started complaining so I agreed to abide by what the doctor said. The drs comment: “There are a limited number of cases of coronavirus around. I would personally avoid travel, but that's just my bias.”

So what’s a girl to do? Instead of going to Washington I booked myself a spa appointment for a hydrating facial. It was great but then I started worrying....I don’t know these people and i don’t know who they've been around. I’m so crazy my chest hurts (probably just the tumor fighting back on it’s last gasp...I hope). Then I started googling cancer and corona virus. Seems I’m in a class by myself. Highly susceptible. At risk. Right now I’m in the burbs and I gotta say not sure I wanna go back to the city....plan is to go back this week as treatment starts Thursday and say to the dr should I be 1) even taking ubers to the dr? (I think I’d be better off in my car) - today an Uber/taxi driver was discovered with the virus; 2) isolating myself during and after treatment (just go to the apt or back to the burbs) and if so for how long? Work from home button up for the long haul. Scary for me with limited immunity. I feel like I’m on the ultimate TV game show of Survivor (just give me a colored buff - I’d like pink please) and somebody give me that immunity idol!!! Haven't I earned it with all this chemo crap??? What more do I have to go through?

But I know I’m not alone...I mean you’re right there with me....you are part of the masses that made a run on all the rubbing alcohol, aloe gel and hand sanitizer!! Its surreal ;) I have faith we’ll all come out the other side fine but for now my next treatment is Thursday and mom, I concerned...so if there’s anything you can do wherever you are I know you will because none of us are ready to join you.
