Half way there

Today marks the halfway point through chemotherapy.  I must say I'm somewhat dreading it (other than I get to watch a movie with Joel while I'm getting the infusion!)  Just when I start to feel a little more like myself they zap you again. As I mentioned before taking medicine is not my thing.  I don't think I have ever once in my life finished a round of antibiotics.  Once I start feeling good I know I'm through the woods and don't feel the need to finish the drugs.  That's a little how I feel about this cancer.  I'm through the woods....good to go.  I just don't think Joel will let me quit this time!  I cannot fathom Taxol once a week for twelve weeks, uggg!  Not to mention once chemo is over 33 rounds of radiation.  And after 33 rounds of radiation Herceptin for A YEAR.  Sometimes I wonder how I will get through it.  OK, I've ranted enough.  I know I will get through it.

And this is how I will get through this round...My mom, dad, and two sisters are coming to AK!  We are all very excited for their visit.  Please pray for my chemo buddy (dad) that he will fair the plane ride well and not get too exhausted through his travels.  They leave MI today, Tues. Oct 30 arriving around midnight. There is not much of an agenda planned so hopefully it will be restful for everyone.  If any pilots here in Anchorage would like to take him out I'm sure he would love it!  (Dr. Moll.....are you reading my blog? ;)

Again, as always....thanks to everyone who has done anything to help me get through this.
