Since last Tuesday I have felt really good. I am praying that my next round tomorrow will bring little to no side effects. I am starting the new chemo, Taxol. The first 4 treatments I was receiving 2 different chemos...now only 1. Makes sense to me that the side effects will be cut in half...wishful thinking. I just hope they are not as strong and do not leave me bed ridden for 2 days. School will be starting in just a month and will have 1 treatment during in-service week and one 2 weeks later after the students arrive. I prefer not to be out since it is so early in the year.
On Thursday my mom's friend, Patty, gave us tickets for the screening of "The Help." I got to see the faces of some people who I haven't seen in quite some time. Great movie...and even greater company!! Thanks ladies for joining us...AND thank you Patty for thinking of me :)
Friday, Angie Woolum, came over and gave me an hour long massage!! What a wonderful gift. She is really, really good for anyone looking for one. Maybe that is why I felt so great all weekend! THANKS WOOLUM :)
On Saturday, we took the kids to K.I. water park. I found myself shopping for a new pair of boobies...lol! I kept pointing the nice sets out to Jr and he kept saying I didn't have to because he has his own "radar." Yeah whatever....typical male response. I did find the perfect size...I should have asked to take a picture....wouldn't be the first time (ha girls...Christy's rehearsal after-party). I find that "shopping," as I like to call it, has become a ritual. I can't help but point out a nice set when I see em in person or in a magazine or on TV. I think Jr may be starting to worry...he he. Well to some it may be weird...but it is my payback for all the crap I am going through!
Have a nice week...stay cool in this heat...and keep your fingers crossed that my treatment goes well.
ha i forgot all about that!! so obviously you were a freak way before you had cancer!!

Hello cousin. I was very sad to hear the news and I am praying for you. It is great to hear that things are getting better. You are a very strong woman and I know you will come out of this even stronger. I love the no hair look on you :) You look great. Nice to know you are SHOPPING :) You are too funny. Say hello to the family. I hope we get to see you soon. Love you. Take care
