2 down......

I had my second chemo session on Friday.  Proud to say 2nd down, 6 yards for a first down.  I started with labs early, and moved onto my oncologist visit before I moved to the infusion center.  We had plenty of time in the exam room where we realized if all continues to go well, my last chemo session will be the day after my birthday - I couldn't ask for a better present simply because I plan to make 16 weeks of chemo only be 16 weeks and nothing more.  I have a strict timetable I want to adhere to so I can go on vacation, hunt, get back to TKD and attend more Falcons games next season. Priorities :)

While in there, they have models of breasts to look at and of course, only I would have it fall apart all over the counter.  Gregg just shook his head at me while I attempted to put it back together which I feel bad for the next patient to look at it, because it was not right whatsoever.  Gregg needless to say was not about to be caught touching it when my Doc walked in.  The Doc did give me some additional meds to help with nausea on top of iv fluids when I went back for my neulasta shot yesterday afternoon.

I was sore when they accessed my port due to being so fresh but it was much better receiving the Red Devil through the port than it was an iv in my arm.  My cousin, Chris, was with me and helped take my mind off the pain by talking about Disney.  She gave me a beautiful ring that I cherish dearly.  After she left, my mom and Gregg hung out with me while I finished up.

We watched and cheered for the Ravens last night - and honestly, I wanted Green Bay to win simply so I could see Clay Matthews play another game.  Today, I of course am rooting on my Falcons boys and I'm going to have to root for the Texans.  I would love to see Ravens vs Falcons for the Super Bowl.  You can definitely feel the Falcons energy at our house and in the Dome.  Lets pray for a win today.  

Thank you again for your love, support, and prayers!  We are blessed in so many ways right now and I am truly thankful to each and every one of you!!!!!!  I honestly do not know how we will ever repay everyone for all they are doing for us.  Thank you!!!!!!!
