Hi gang!
Well, the last chemo was a big rough. I didn't eat solids for about 5 days, and everything I looked at just didn't appeal to me. I finally got my ear issue addressed. I've been fighting a sinus infection for about 2 months now, and my ear was blocked with fluid. I had tubes put in the left side Tuesday, and can finally hear! Bad part is there goes my selective hearing! lol Now I can hear everything hubby is grumbling about! I haven't been the easiest person to deal with though. I'm an angel one moment, and a complete you know what the next!
I have been having a hard time with my blood work, and yesterday finally had to have my first blood transfusion. Just entering the hospital makes me sick. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. It's doable, but still sucks. If everything goes well August 22nd will be my admission date for the SCT. Thanks to a very good friend, my sister in law will be coming from Hawaii next week to take care of my children, so my husband can work. Things have been a bit tight, but thanks to the generosity of Andrews work, we have been very blessed. They paid for all the kids back to school supplies, and donated food, and some of their sick days so he can take off here and there. I'm not normally one used to asking, or even accepting help. Cancer is a very humbling illness. I won't go as far as some can call it a blessing, but I guess everything has a purpose. Hopefully this will be the cure for me, and in return I can play it forward and help someone in need when it arises. Thanks for the warm thoughts,prayers and support! I'm so thankful that the chinnies brought some awesome people into my life!
