Monday, October 26, 2009 | A General Update story

   Well this is a general update, I went through the first round of  chemo and it was bad and I still have the side effects, nausa, etc.....The shots seem to be the worst I have to give myself  3 per day. but if it  does the job,  if the cancer goes into remisssion than all this will be worth it. Went to the dr today to do blood work cbc count, all is ok at this point so we will be a go for November 2nd to start the stem cell harvest...

  Oh yes praise God for the sun that was shining today and the nice weather we are having.....

    Amen I almost kissed the ground when the sun came out. Amazing what it does for us. It sure charges my battery. Sorry you are feeling bad but like you said it will all be worth it. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Naomi xo

    I noticed your update so decided to check it out. Wow. I really feel for you. I myself have been dealing with cancer issues of my own. I recently had a hysterectomy. It was a bit dicey. I can't have chemo or radiation because of my liver. I even had to have the surgery while awake because of the worry of how the anaesthetic would affect me. I am glad I had it done tho. While in there they found a separate tumour and removed it. I was lucky. The tumour was just entering the cancer stage. My Dr. feels tho that because it was caught so early, I should not need any chemo or radiation, which is good, since I could not handle either of them with the way my health is. Still for the next year, I have to have regular blood checks to see how things are going. I will keep you in my thoughts.
