6 Weeks and Counting

It was 6 weeks ago today that I was diagnosed with cancer. The weeks have been a bit of a roller coaster, much like our weather during that time. Some fabulous sunny days, and some stormy cloudy days. But I'm doing great right now and getting ready to gear up for chemo on Thursday.

So I'll play a bit tomorrow having lunch with a dear friend, Deborah; and then spend Wednesday with Sarah when she escorts me to my Oncology appointment and for my blood draw. So as long as blood counts are doing good, and there is no reason they shouldn't be, I'll have my second chemotherapy treatment behind me by Thursday night.


Woo Hoo!!!

One Month

To day is exactly one month since my diagnosis! Infiltrating Ductal Carcinoma!!

Need I say that it has been a quick month. It started out slowly with the news and disbelief. Then the worrying and waiting to get in to see the doctor and see what was really going on and what was the next step. That followed by anxiety to get rolling with my plan of treatment. And finally all the tests and doctor appointments leading up to my first chemo treatment of today.

I must look at it as one month down, and probably 8-11 months more of "stuff". to go That would be 4 months of chemo starting today, then surgery, ending with radiation We hope that will be the end, but time will tell.
