YAHOO!!!
I have made it through the worst of Treatment #2. There was a slight “delay” in my side effects this time, and I was wishful in thinking that I would just bypass them. No such luck. It is strange to me that such quirky phenoms can occur specific to certain medications, and multiple people have the same side effects. A weird voodoo this chemo is!
Today, Gordon, Emma Kate and George have left to join Aunt Donna for an adventure to the Magic Kingdom!!! Aunt Donna is our beloved hostess with the mostest, a hands down winner for Aunt of the Year award (Sorry Missy and Cecelia). Donna has taken all of her nieces and nephews on this magical journey, and now it is time for the next two in line. They are SO excited!!! (adults as well as kids). They will have four days of a fun filled menagerie before returning to the homestead. I can’t wait for the pics.
Clayton? Well we have opted to delay his trip to Disney. Give it a few years and maybe a solo trip will better serve “King” Clayton. For his fall break, I have in store an array of “mini” adventures, to include sleeping in a cabin..one of Clayton’s all time favorites. He will have fun too!
Thanks again to all of you for pulling me through with prayers, thoughts, cards, food, calls, visits, etc. I could NOT do it without you! I know I say it a lot, but I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH !!!!! I continue to coast in a weakened condition trying to follow the routine of my “physical” reality versus my “mental” reality. I greatly appreciate your showing up to lend a hand; it helps keep me from trying to do too much.
Some of you have referenced my Bible verses that I have selected for my journal entries. God is great. God is awesome. God is my everything. So, I hope not to dishearten you by leading with a song title from The Doors….but this really is a trip.
Peace Out!
