		<description><![CDATA[Greg and I moved back to our home in Vermont today.  Now, instead of weekly visits to the hospital in Boston, we&#8217;ll only have monthly visits.  This would&#8217;ve come much earlier had it not been for the (likely) false diagnosis of CMV and the myelosuppressive therapy that ensued, which may well have been key to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t read the literature on this myself, but my oncologist tells me the data are strong that taking walks—or just getting up and about—has a significant impact on recovery, especially regarding fatigue.  So, as I&#8217;m feeling so much better (being able to eat tends to do that), my partner Greg and I decided to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just started a new drug for the peripheral neuropathy.  The drug turns me into a complete zombie: I&#8217;m unable to stand, extremely sleepy, hallucinating, and unable to focus my eyes.  These symptoms are supposed to pass in a couple of days, but the central nervous system impact of this drug is much, much greater [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Neuropathy, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, narcotics, dehydration, extreme fatigue, and crushing sadness—these are the experiences I&#8217;ve been enjoying for the last week. This has been a hard week—the last few days especially so.  With the ongoing C. difficile infection (which is perhaps fully suppressed now . . . maybe), I&#8217;ve been eating nothing but yogurt [...]]]></description>
