Session 5!

Sheila was on vacation today so she joined us for the big protien loading breakfast at Rogan's. It was great to have her along and bring some laughs to the routine. Not quite the half way mark for Taxol but close. Another med adjustment today. A reduction in Taxol due to the significant increase of my neuropathy. Struggled this week, and an emotional purge came with the territory. God Bless Bill for listening, soothing, and responding to me. My head knows that life continues while I battle on, but my heart is sometimes heavy when I want desperately to participate more and just live. One of my cancer fairies - Sandy - who has helped my mind tremendously told me "while you are in treatment it is on your mind 24 hours a day. Just try to remember treatment will end and you'll be on the other side before you know it." I am truly holding onto those thoughts and repeat them to myself this week more and more. I am maintaining perspective for my own health. My healing is good, my team continues to strengthen me, my support network holds onto me, and that is what a good day is all about.

  1. Put a check mark on my new calendar for this coming Thursday, half way. Rest today, tomorrow is supposed to be nice. I think of you and Bill each and every day, and when I see our beautiful sunsets, I know you are looking at them too. Wouldn't they make a lovely calender? Gloria...
