Things are getting more intense. This week Bruno is on cycle 8 of chemo; there is only 1 left before his surgery, which, if all goes well, will happen at the end of March.

Often, of late, people say to me, “I cannot imagine what you are going through.” The answer I give -sometimes out loud, sometimes to myself- is, I can’t either. I’m certain that when we look back on these months, we likely won’t be able to grasp just quite how we got through so much suffering.

In the meantime, I bake. We spend most of our time at home in the kitchen, our place of comfort, and turning on the oven makes it even more so.
