Wow, what a difference a week makes. I was feeling pretty low last week. But I got better bloodwork on Tuesday - 8.4! And we started the new protocol on Wednesday at the office!! So much better than the hospital.
It was a pleasure to be with Kristin in the Chemo Lounge. She takes such good care of me. It was fun to see some of my chemo friends and catch up with them. It was wonderful to have Marcia with me as my Chemo Buddy and easier for her and her family that it was so much shorter and we didn't have to sleep over in that hospital again!! We were home by 2:30 in the afternoon!
I then crawled into bed and slept from 2:30 until 9 pm. Awoke briefly to eat the delicious Rigatoni A La Vodka my loving husband made (my favorite!!) then promptly went back to bed with a full belly and slept until 9 this morning. Not a bad run, huh?
I continue to receive wonderful get well cards and wishes, fun presents in the mail (like nice panties to upgrade me from Granny panties) and prayers from all over. I know this is a long haul and I'm so bored of it. Cancer was so 2012. But thank you for your continued support. I can tell you haven't forgotten about me just because this keeps dragging along and that makes me feel good.
I visited work this week too to talk to my boss. I sadly handed him a Doctors Note that says "several more months of treatment." Someone at work was saying he thought I'd be back early spring, but even that seems a little too overzealous. I'm so anxious to be a regular person again and I think going back to work will make that happen. I'm not there yet but I'm so thankful for everyone patience and understanding. If it were me, I'd be bitching about me behind my back!! hehe
So I'm taking a deep breath, trying to focus and be calm. I have a good team. I will be cancer free soon. And this new chemo is gonna do the trick. I just know it!!
