Courage is being afraid but going on anyways. I am afraid. I am a first time breast cancer gal and it scares me. My doctor suggested blogging. I have never blogged and will try it out. I hope it helps
I love you LEIN.....I am so sorry you have been feeling so bad but keep thinking about how this is only short term and in the long run the long term results will be a ARE MUCH better :)
Thanks everyone day 5. Had another Iv hydration feeling a little better had more cries felt better. Wish this was over but doing my best to get thru this barely!!!! I don't like not being part of my families daily routines :( Uggggg
Feeling very helpless and wishing I could take away the misery and fear. Thanks for sharing this with us as I will read your blog devotedly. Stay strong you amazing Warrior!
Day 6 horrible. Horrible!!!!! Up at night bone pain and throwing up in the morning. I feel like a terrible mother. How will I deal with this for months? This makes me soooo sad
So sorry about the pain and nausea. Your courage in dealing with all this is more than enough to demonstrate your love for your kids. You don't have to do all your normal activities with them right now, in fact you can't. Letting them help you when you are hurting can be a positive experience for all of you. Helping you can help them cope, make them feel like they can make a difference in helping you heal. I know your love for them is a powerful motivator for you getting well. Your love for your kids is the only thing they need for you to be a good mom, and we all know your love for them is never ending. I know it must really suck. Hang in there. Love, TJ
Day 7 Better. Craving Noah's bagels and pudding. Strange! Oncologist and chemo pharm both clapped to discuss drugs. Hopefully when next treatment comes they will do the trick! Uggggg I walked to get my kids today at school yeahhhhhh
My good friend Val sent me this quote tonight. I LOvE this quote too. "You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have!" Here here. Gotta be strong Day 9 almost over and I FEEL good today. I actually went "out" to dinner. Close friends took family out to dinner. I had a plain gluten free pasta with parm. Nothing exciting but "out to dinner" yeahhhhh
