I’ve been spending a lot of time these past few weeks watching the calendar. As each day passed by, I tried not to dwell on the fact that it was bringing me one day closer to starting chemotherapy. I now find myself with the entire month of November gone, Thanksgiving behind me, and now prepping myself for my appointment with my doctor on Friday. Yep, December 5th is it. I’ve been cleared to start my treatment. The mystery infection has for the most part been resolved (having not been an infection after all) two surgeries are behind me and now I’m ready to face this new phase of my treatment. Part of me is ready to “get the ball rolling” and the other part is nervous as to how I will be feeling and how I will handle a four month stint with chemo. Sometimes the unknown can be scary.
I also will be blogging about my journey over at the site Mothers with Cancer. It’s a great resource and blogging platform for over twenty women who are dealing with this disease on a daily basis. My first post isn’t up yet, but should be soon.


I’ll be thinking of you and sending virtual hugs and get well thoughts. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
Always thinking of you. See you this week!
You know I’ll be thinking of you all this week and the weeks to come. Lots of love and hugs coming your way, dear friend.
In the journey that begins this Friday…
Your family and many friends…
We are all going to be there with you in spirit…..
Those of us who can help in person are at your disposal. ….
Mom and I will always be at your side.
LOVE…Mom and Dad
You will sail through with flying colors
It is scary thinking about it but a relief to start. Good luck on Friday, I will be thinking about you! Make sure you eat lots of protein it keeps the nausea away! Rest up and try to get some sleep!
The unknown is scary, but hopefully those of us at MWC that have come out the other side of chemo can “virtually” help you through. Such a special note from your parents… and do not be afraid to ask for help from those around you, it is so important – even if it is something small like dropping off a case of water so you can stay hydrated. I will be thinking of you…and praying that the chemo does its job.
I’m thinking positive thoughts for you to remain strong physically and mentally through your chemo treatment. You are an amazing woman. You can do this!
Stephanie – Believe it or not, it’s on my calendar as well. I’m thinking about you!
Stephanie I am here and I have been thinking about you often. Please know that I am definitely with you in spirit and I know that your strength and beautiful heart will carry you through this. You are so awesome. Sending you much love and good wishes.
Just popping back in to tell you I’ll have you in my thoughts tomorrow (how’s that for an klutzy sentence?!).
My brother (who’s a bit of a wuss – shhhhh) survived his chemo, so I have faith that you’ll do great!! I’m sure you’ll have lots of helpers to get you through those weary days.
Know that so many people are thinking of you.
Hugs and love,
Les
