Tired, but two down.

I was able to have my chemo treatment on Tuesday. My white blood cell count was very good, almost normal, and so after a quick visit with the oncologist I was able to complete the 2nd of 8 chemo treatments. My mom was my visitor this time and we were given a private room in the cancer center. We watched HGTV shows and talked about redecorating and other things. It was nice to have company and the treatment went pretty quickly, we left about 4 pm. I slept in on Wednesday but worked a half day and worked both Thursday and Friday. I am tired, the anti-nausea medication causes drowsiness and I am really tired. Oops - I said that already. :-)
So I'm hoping for  a quiet weekend, and then I have two full weeks to recover again before the next treatment. There will be a blood work check up on March 25th, a week from today, to make sure I'm staying healthy. On that note, if I don't take you up on a social opportunity please don't feel bad. I may just be resting and staying away from germs.
Oh, a deer decided to jump in front of Al on his way to work Thursday morning, so my little Vibe is at the body shop. Al is fine, no injuries there. The latest news on the car is that is it to be totalled and we should start looking for a new car. Yuck. Please pray that we can figure out what to do with that news. Thanks again for your prayers and love.

  1. Hi Mary. I'm glad to hear you were able to have your treatment. Answered prayer for the white count to be good enough! Will be praying you stay healthy and for the car search. Praise that Al was not hurt. If venison is on your list of foods you'd like to consume ( Especially now! :) ) let me know, and I'll bring some for Al to cook up for you!
    We love you and your family!
