I am on a wonderful vacation cruising through Canada and ready to have the time of my life. My oncologist took me off chemo, so I would not experience the nasty side effects. I had been eagerly anticipating this vacation for months.She has myelodysplastic syndrome, which is rare, and would love to communicate with others who have MDS.
Step by painful step, I am walking through picturesque Quebec City. All around me are historical old buildings, dozens of art galleries, unusual old cathedrals and several museums. It is truly one of the quaintest and most beautiful cities I have ever visited.
The problem is I can’t enjoy it one little bit. The rain is pouring down in the hazy mist, the walking is treacherous and every single muscle in my legs is tightening up in spasms, screaming in protest.
