How is everyone doing going into this hectic holiday season?
Remember to take time for rest and to look after yourself. Our immune systems take a beating. Currently down and out with flu but hopefully will recover in time to enjoy at least part of the season.
It is easy for many of us to be outwardly focused on pleasing others that we can forget that our immune systems are not 100%. It was right after chemo when I did some "safe" local travel and came down with Covid Pneumonia . Take care of your self Susan . Find a warm blanket... some hot tea and just get over that nasty flu before the start of 2024 🎉... Dennis (Blood-Cancer.com TEAM) 
I refuse to focus on others. As in I live alone, my son lives in another state and contacts me via phone at least once per week. I get to focus on me so that is great. Lately I have been wearing a mask when out in stores, I trust me with all the vaccines I have gotten but not so much others in my area. Covid is again on the rise so you know me first and others can laugh at me I don't care I will do me you do you.
Hey, nothing wrong with focusing on yourself! I live with someone but I basically close myself into my office for the day and focus on myself and the things I want and need to do! I use a mask at the grocery store sometimes, and I still get the looks but it's worth it because I really don't want to get sick again! You are not alone. Keep on keepin' on, DPM 
it sounds like you are being smart and proactive in your self care. I admire that! Keep taking great care of YOU!
