This day…

I confess, today was overwhelming for me yet a sense of peace as well. The new and unknown is never a calming place even on the best of days. Yet, upon walking in the door I felt cared for by hands and hearts, while tired of the load they bare, they attended with ears to listen and gentle with words shared. 

Labs were first and I met Darrick and his assistant Sam for my first draw. Then off the the chair. They went over the hours plans with both of us then I sent George off for home. We knew it would be at least two good hours and all said and done we were at 2.5 for chair time. I had just stepped out the door and took a seat when George walked in. 

I've come home with a injection patch for my white blood cells. Instructions for the days to come. I will likely begin to see a shift of energy and some physical pains over the weekend. George is off during this first round so we are aware of what to expect all the way round. 

Thanks for the love and prayers today! You are appreciated and loved much in return!!

It is hard waiting for the other shoe to drop... this can apply to so many areas of life... financial security... job security... health... children... family... all of these things are difficult enough in their own way... what is most difficult is waiting for another to twist the knife... we as human are such flawed creatures to begin with... with the three fingers that point back as we call out the failure of others... it is enough just to keep the eyes in the back of the head open wide to protect us from the inevitable... often we know that which is about to happen... yet there are times when we never see it coming... it is not always about doing what is right... it is more often about doing what is necessary that gets us into trouble... and there in lies the rub... we do what we feel to be right to make the wheel turn and others just can't bare the thought of not having control... whether gained or earned... and as the aftermath of what is left behind... the question remains......

Treatment #2

There is a great deal of this journey that has left me flummoxed. I rise everyday with a goal to be brave and strong, to defeat the day with grace and determination. This is my code to life for everyday. That sounds like I’ve got it in the bag. Lol! Reality strikes again.  I have made two small solo endeavors in recent weeks but my guy has seen to most of my needs. I am blessed and thankful to have George at my side. Even the effort of the grocery store has proven to slow me up so I am grateful that his effort and heart is assuring that all my steps are guarded by his watchful eye. Bonus… arm candy! Lol! When people refer to chemo fog, trust they speak the truth. I had embarked on my first real solo adventure since my first treatment. I am excited to say the least! I began my adventure by assisting my sister with a lunch for the living center mother had spent the past 2.5 years of life. It is a small thank you to those who shared their caring hands and loving hearts. I will be fore...
