We're halfway there!!

Hello Everyone!

Treatment #3 is now history, so we're halfway done with the chemo! woo-hoo!! What a relief that is. They did extra blood work, and found that my white blood work had dropped considerably and I was quite anemic. That would explain why I sleep all the time and am cold so much! So, I started today with another shot - Aranesp. I'll get that when I get the chemo. If that doesn't bring my white blood count up, I suppose a blood transfusion will be in order.

I'm very tired, but couldn't nap this afternoon, and won't sleep much tonight - never do the first night or next day because of the steroid they give me as part of the chemo. Sam will be home soon - he's coming home early today. We both need for him to be here. He's been just wonderful and wants to be here and "needed".

Thank you everyone for your prayers, your emails, your cards and your support - we appreciate them all and know that it makes a huge difference in the healing process.

Love,
us
