a tinier bag

When I had my first post-hospital doctor visit last week, I was still using a walker to get around. Carrying a regular purse would have been a bit cumbersome so I went much smaller, borrowing this tiny cross-body bag from our granddaughter. Just enough room for ID, iPhone, lip balm — and a tiny sketchbook and pen, of course.

On the far left I began a gratitude list that was added to daily. As my medical team prepares to go on the attack against the tumor, I am reminded of so much I have to be thankful for.
