Hope to get away from these gray mornings. I'm also hoping that Myrtle Beach brings us some sunny mornings. Even though I don't leave till Friday bright and early, I have been packed for a couple of days now. Just throwing in things I couldn't pack till just before I leave like the phone charger cord and my pills.
Yesterday went pretty well. Carol and I walked in basically together only I didn't realize it was her walking in in front of me. Talked to Dr. Londer about my meds, if my acne side effects get worse I can take two of those pills a day instead of one, but for now we will keep it at one. I also talked about the med I take for RLS and neuropathy in my feet as I've had some problems with that in the last couple of days, and he thinks maybe the chemo has something to do with it not working as well, but said it is the best drug for my neuropathy....so maybe I can get a stronger dose....but I have to talk to my primary doctor for that....which I may do today. Then I asked him if I could stretch my trip to Salt Lake and Sedona the end of Feb.....I was going to ask if I could get the chemo there someplace....and he says sure you'll just have 3 weeks inbetween your cycle. He says whats wrong with having 6 sessions in 12 weeks or 13 weeks? So I was thrilled with that thought!!
The rest of the chemo with Carol went pretty much as usual, and we talked non-stop...I sent her to my favorite "El Toro" for lunch for chicken enchilada's and to get something for herself, and she came back with a Taco Laco, it was a deep fried flour tortilla and she says Mary taste this....Yuk the tortilla was fried in rancid oil....she had to scrape all the toppings off and just eat that....than when she left, she took the shell back to the restaurant and got my money back for me. So now, I don't think I want to get food there anymore. It isn't my favorite anymore!
When I got home I noticed on Facebook that Nick had passed his Drivers test, and Ann had posted his picture holding the temporary license to drive. So I downloaded it and added it to yesterdays Blog, so you can go back and check that out. We are celebrating with dinner there tonight.
Got to wrap presents today for Nick and Bill (as I won't be here for Bill's birthday on Saturday.) and don't have any other plans....Probably take a nap!...cause I didn't sleep well last night witch is par for the first night of chemo for me.
The big thrill of yesterday was making arrangements for my trip to SLC and Sedona. Once the doctor gave me the go ahead I started surfing for flights, and actually booked the trip late last night, after emailing back and forth with Gary and then later talking to Kathleen on the phone. So I'm really excited. Wow, 1 week in Mrytle Beach, 3 weeks in Salt Lake and Sedona and 4 days in Boston all booked!!! I'm beginning to be a frequent flyer!!!
Okay enough about me! Please keep that long list of people I have on my prayer list in your prayers, and Thank You so much for all the prayers coming my way!! I feel the love, Love and Prayers, m
