February 23/2017 

I had a little tea party here on Monday night. Both my sisters and my Aunt all came over. My Aunt lives in the USA so we don’t get to see her much. We had quite the visit.lots of giggles.  Got all caught up on the old times and our families old stories. Many of which we all had different recollection. Lol lol. But it was so much fun. Definatley a bright spot in my life theses days. 

I even did the cooking and made supper ( a stew ) and a apple crisp for desert. Not to bad if I do say so myself. We stayed up talking late into the night. But I wouldn’t change a minute. Thanks so much to my Sisters and my Aunt, you gave me a night to just take my mind off of everything going on in my life that I have no control of. I didn’t realize just how much I needed that. ❤️❤️❤️

I also had a busy day yesterday doing some running around in Edmonton and in  St Albert. Keeping busy keeps the mind busy. No time to think and worry. I need that. 

I am feeling much better now I seem to have the nausea under control. Only took the meds morning and night yesterday.  I feel like I have my life back. A little scared to get to used to it. But I will take one day at a time. 

My only chemo symptom right now is that I have little sore’s on my head. Actually all over about 10 of the little suckers. It make it hard to wash or blow dry. But I am still doing it. I think my hair days are counting down. In my reading you can get the sore’s just before you loose your hair. Hopefully it lasts until my wine/whine party on Saturday when my sisters are coming over with wine to see me whine as I buzz cut off all my hair. I will see if I can figure out how to put a picture on her after the cut.  If I think I don’t have a odd shaped head to show it off.  Lol lol 

I have some very very dear friends of mine. The husband is in his final stages of cancer. They are the strongest and most beautiful family I have ever know. For all of you that believe in the power of prayer, please say one for them. They could sure use a prayer of peace and comfort right now.  I am starting off the chain by sending lots of love and peace their way today and in the days that follow. As you can never have to much love in a house when someone is struggling to live ❤️  

In plans to keep busy I am off today to help my Dad get his car fixed. Cathy and I have the plan ….. Poor Dad we just tell him be ready and we set it all up.  So fix the car and lunch with my Dad and my Sister are the order of the day . 

I am feeling better because a few days ago I thought I might never eat food again.  Chemo sucks. What sucks more is that I have to do it 5 more times. But it is the means to the end. At the end of this I plan to be cancer free , hair free, and just free. I so look forward to that day. But for now it is just another day. Moving forward …..😊
