I'm a Japanese housewife living in Japan. I'm in my 60's. I want to know daily lives in the world, so at first I'll tell my daily. What is your daily life?
Yuki’s radiation treatment is going to start this weekend.
He will have to go to the hospital every day for a while, but fortunately he won’t need to be hospitalized.
Today, his care manager will visit us, and in the afternoon our accountant will come as well. His inheritance matter will be more or less settled for now.
March has started, and the Japanese plum trees are in full bloom.
Last Friday, Yuki couldn’t receive chemotherapy. Starting next week, he will begin a different kind of treatment. The doctor said that this will probably be the last chemotherapy. If this one becomes impossible to continue, he will be monitored without active treatment.
Additionally, although they are small, two tumors were found in his brain. We will visit the radiology department next week.
Unfortunately, the disease is progressing, but Yuki remains in good spirits. Playing tennis and musical instruments has become difficult, but his appetite is still strong.
The other day, on the way back from the hospital, we were able to return home earlier because there was no chemotherapy. So we had lunch out — even with a glass of wine.
We hope to live well with the illness and spend each day peacefully and joyfully.
It is cloudy, but my face isitchybecause of the pollen.
Today, before going to the clinic, we are planning to discard a set of speakers, so we will take them directly to the recycling center. It would be nice if someone could take them as junk items, but that seems difficult because Yuki modified them quite a lot.
Anyway, we have to keep up our slow and steady decluttering. In a way, it has become both my hobby and my work.
Our usual routine has started again — going to the clinic and the gym.
February will be over in four days. We have to visit the hospital twice this week, so we hope to have a calm weekend.
Additionally, after going to the clinic, we often drop by a few stores, including a department store. Sometimes we don’t even know whether the main purpose is shopping or seeing the doctor.
My husband Yuki and I live in a regional city. Our retirement life has state since 2020. Though Something good, exciting, worried or bad often happens, we try to focus the current situation and spend enjoyable days while living offf our savings little by little carefully.
