Blessed

How blessed am I to have so many people pulling for me?!  I am amazed and humbled by the support being shown, both monetarily and emotionally.  I was able to completely pay off one of my very expensive chemo treatments thanks to donations from wonderful people.  I thank you for that.  I thank you for being there for me...

I apologize for the misunderstanding about the donation site in my last post.  The flyer is actually a picture, so you cannot simply click the link.  But if you are interested in donating any amount towards my medical bills and are not planning on attending the fundraiser dinner, you can use this link.  If you are planning on attending, I can't wait to see you (and be sure you rsvp)! 

I am feeling GREAT five weeks after surgery.  I am healing well and have all of my range of motion back.  I have no pain other than the day or two after my "fills" for my tissue expanders.  I have been back to work since 3 weeks out of surgery, albiet with some lifting restrictions.  It really does feel good to be getting back to "me."  I will have one more filling process on the 15th and will most likely start my radiation the next week.  I will have treatment for 6 weeks, 5 days a week.  I pray that radiation goes without a hitch just as everything else has.  (And I'll knock on wood, too!)

My hair is coming back, as I'm now NINE weeks out from my last chemo treatment!  My eyebrows are growing in and I have enough eyelashes to actually put mascara on.  :)  I know it sounds vain, but it really does feel good not to look like a cancer patient anymore even though I'm still fighting. 

So other than the hair and the fundraiser, there's a big fat nothing new!  Hooray!
