Day 5 and still tickin

Today the weather was in the mid 70s and cloudy until we started home and then the sun appeared!

This morning was not a very good morning. As you all remember I have buun sick to my tummy since Sunday, well today was Wenesday and I was vomiting. I decided to talk to the Dr. after my treatment. He placed me on a low dose steroid for brain swelling, however this could make my face swell and make my mask much tighter(OUCH) So just pray that my tummy ache just goes away!

Todays driver in the spotlight is Pam. Pam is a friend of mine that I met when working at the Flowershop! We had some nice together away from her son and husband;}

well more to you later

Treatment 4 is out the door!

Today was my fourth treatment:

The weather today was warm and very sunny:)

Please stare into the sun , count to ten and scroll down 6

Oh My Gosh, it is Shining Star!

This is my sister Robin, she is my Tuesday driver.

Treatment was fine today and I met with the Doctor. He did not have much to say as it was only treatment #4. But to make you all jealous he does not want me to diet during the next six weeks, I am so sad:( NOT

Have a great night!!

MIGHTY DOG

This is what I came home today from radiation! Schnaaps chewed and pulled this rocker from one side of the room to the other. This is a distance about 12 feet! He does not like when I leave him alone yet I feel guilty putting him in his cage. This is the thanks I get!

It is funny though when you come home and ask "Who did this?" Schnaaps immediately lowers his head, looks out the top of his eyes and goes in the other room. Guilty? What do you think?

Monday Night and Many Professions

My Sister Karen was over last night and was experiencing with a couple of her many talents:

She is an assembler-she had purchased this Bird-Bath for me and assembled it!

And then a photo shoot with the dogs, Eat your heart Ashley! LOL

Have A Great Day and Much Love

Day 3 with Marie

The weather today was beautiful, lower 70's and partly cloudy:

This is my friend Marie. She is my driver on Mondays. The round trip was fairly good. The only excitement today was a turkey vulture that instead of flying out of the way was flying in front of us, in front of the windshield. Sorry, I was not fast enough with the camera.

The following is a picture of my Radiation badge that I have to have everyday, if I forget it NO TREATMENT! I hope that never happens. Attached to the top, is a pin that my niece Erin sent me to BORROW. I gave it to her when she was a little girl and she still has it! HUH, I only thought there was one person who kept everything.

Todays treatment went well, I still am experiencing tummy trouble. I am not sure if I have a bug or what?????? I met several people in my waiting room today-just remember there is always someone worse than you!

Take Care and Much Love

The Weekend

As most of you know I do not have treatments on the weekend.
Saturday was so-so, the only thing I did was go to Pamida and get a new computer desk that was clearnced for 37.00! I am glad I did not buy it when I first wanted to. And then I went to visit my parents.

Sunday, well Sunday has been a different story. I am very tired and sick to my stomache. I do not know if this is Radiation related or a bug. I do know I do not like the way I feel. I slept until 11:30am and had some toast and took my pills and back to bed. It is about 6pm and I am trying to stay up so I sleep tonight.

I will be seeing the Dr. on Tuesday and I will ask him about anti-nausea medicine they have. No pictures yet, however I do have some burn marks starting on my head from the radiation. Nothing I can not handle as of now. BTW I dont know if I told you about wearing the mask-it is uncomfortable but not unbearable. I thank the good Lord for that!

I thank everyone for their continued prayers, love and support. Your kindness does not go un-noticed!

Much Love
