Chanting

Chemo session #5 - check.
Great Husband who came along - check.
Nap on the couch once we got home - check.
By the way - NO ALLERGIC reaction!! Yahoo! This is a big answer to prayer. BIG answer. Thank you so much for your prayers. :-) The nurse said to pay attention to my feet and toes, hands and fingers and let them know if I have numbness that doesn't heal within the 2-3 weeks between sessions.
So I am staying on track, my blood cells seem to be dipping, but recovering well. I'm still eating fruits and veggies and lots of protein. I am still exercising. Apparently I am not the normal patient and I am sure it is the prayer and care that you all have given me.

So my chant for today was and is  "GOD is in charge, Al is coming along, and the cancer center staff know what they are doing." :-) I think this helped my blood pressure and gave me an overall peaceful feeling.

I saw this picture on another blog by a gal in California. She is a couple of months ahead of me in this journey. As you can see, she feels that radiation is an integral part of the breast cancer treatments. She is a nurse and she didn't initially want to undergo radiation, but after researching the odds that radiation gives us, she went ahead with a modified program. She had her first treatment today, and I will continue to follow her journey. I will be calling my radiology doctor and asking for another consultation, please pray that I can communicate clearly my concerns and get answers for my questions.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for reading and keeping up with me.  :-)
