Just looking at yesterday's picture makes me sick to my stomach. I hate how it makes me feel, but I love what it is doing to any free-floating-cancer cells! I know the cytoxan makes me really sick too, but it looks like water, so it seems less problematic. Despite all of that, I've felt pretty good today. I figured out that if I tank up on nausea meds on treatment day, the rest of the week is doable. I've only taken one pill today, and that makes me happy (considering all the pills I have to take everyday anyway!).
Kari and Diana came today, so we went out so I could run a few random errands today. I also took a nap and worked in the yard a little bit. Someone please tell me, WHY did I think I needed so many flowerbeds? And where can I throw some grass seed this year? Sheesh. Over the last week or so, I've managed to get the front yard cut down and cleaned up. Now I just need to move a few plants, prune the peach trees (I haven't a clue how to do that) and start in the back yard. Let's pray that the snow/rain will cooperate with my treatment schedule!
I decided to have a "HALF WAY DONE" Party on March 28th, 6:00 at my house. That is the night before my 5th treatment and officially marks completing half my treatments and their aftermath. Everyone is welcome to come! I really mean it!!! If you are reading this, you are invited! We're doing potluck appetizers and desserts. Bring whatever you want, we'll eat whatever shows up. If you need my address, send me a message and I will get it to you. I am so excited! : )

Kim, I am so glad that you have reached this milestone and that the second half will be "easier". We would love to come celebrate with you at the end of the month - do you mind if the family comes (assuming we are all healthy)? I would love the chance to meet the awesome people that have been there for you through all of this. What a great celebration! It's going on my calendar right now.
Love ya,
Colleen
Heck ya! Bring everyone! Maybe I can convince the kids to clean up the basement so we can send them all down there? Here's to hoping! Love, Kim : )
