You, O Lord, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. Psalm 18:28
Happy New Year! Here's to a very cold, windy, but beautifully sunny day! Last Thursday was my #3 chemo treatment. Gerry and I saw my oncologist; she is encouraged and at this point thinks that probably #4 will be the last chemo before surgery. So-I hope and pray that this is so-but she's not hesitant about changing her mind if she thinks a couple more treatments would be good.
Gerry, I, my brother Doug, daughter Angie, and a friend I've met who's having treatments, all hunkered down on Thursday and played Kings in the Corner during chemo. It sure made the time go fast, and was fun for all. Am still feeling pretty good today; usually days 4-6 are kind of dicey. I've read at least twice that short rests are good, but it's best to be up and moving and drinking lots of water. Exercise is encouraged-have found that the experience is certainly unique to each person, but the guidelines from the doctor's office are helpful.
Gerry and our three daughters, plus many friends, have been my angels on earth. Thank you so much for all your care and prayers. You are all a light to me! Love, Nancy
