Dinner & A Book

I needed to unwind from the Oncologists appointment. A quiet dinner and a good book should do the trick.
So I stopped off at Home Restaurant in Los Feliz.
I got the Thanksgiving Dinner - turkey, mashed potatoes, vegies and cranberry sauce.
I ate all the vegies on my plate - broccoli, carrots, zucchini and yellow squash.

They had a Green Tea available as a hot tea. I asked them if they could serve it iced, and they did.

I started to read Goldie Hawn's Autobiography, "A Lotus Grows in the Mud".
I always like to read about how other people have lived their lives. I always find autobiographies inspirational in that way.
And Goldie Hawn has had such a successful career in the entertainment business, I think this will be an interesting book.

But yes, it was hard to consentrate after such a rough doctors appointment.
I think alot of my emotional upset is about the cold hard reality that there is no cure for Breast Cancer. Or any kind of Cancer.
Once you've had it, you always live with the uncertainty of it returning. Whether your uncertainty in 30% or 23 %, the risk never goes away.
And that is a hard lesson to have to learn.
