Got through it!
Hello everyone,
Radiation ended Thursday morning and the new chemo, 2nd treatment happened Thursday afternoon. Contrary to my expectations of feeling terrible Thursday night, I actually felt very good. Could there have been a steroid in one of those IV bags? I went to Beef's for the mixer with the Centerville Noon and UD Flyers Optimist clubs, and the food tasted good.
After that came choir practice that lasted until about 9:30 P.M. and I still felt good. Amazing!
For as much as I enjoyed seeing the staff at Radiation Oncology at KMC everyday, it was a relief to not have to get up and go there on Friday morning. It was fun to see everyone at Dr. Calvo's office on Thursday. I am really lucky to have such great crews of doctors, nurses and technicians for all of the treatments.
We received some great news from our son Jim in Chicago. He auditioned and got the part of the drummer in the Buddy Holly stage musical. He is really going to work hard being a real estate agent, a dad and now a drummer/actor, but he seems excited about it.
Tomorrow after my Presidents Club meeting at lunch, Roy and I are driving to Boyne Mountain, Michigan for three days of skiing. We had to give up Utah in February, but just hated the idea of getting in only 5 days of skiing the whole year. The weather forecast looks very good, so we are very optimistic about 3 more days of good skiing in one of our favorite places.
Thanks for your continuing prayers and good wishes. They are definitely helping and most appreciated.
Love to all,
Margaret
