GOOD GOOD HAPPY DAY

Feeling good today.....going to take my beautiful dog out for a walk.....yeahhh.....2 more days until my infusion number 3........so I am enjoying my good times I have right now.....I just read something interesting about chemo and breast cancer.....a lot of women on chemo for breast cancer put on weight because they eat bad.....hummmmm.....that is totally what I am doing eating bad food, well kind of bad food, not food I usually eat.....ie-white bread, plain bagels sometimes with butter, and a little donut yesterday.....weird I crave bad things....I probably put on about 2-3 lbs since I started.....lost some the first week when I couldn't eat but now that the meds are under control....food is ok....and white starcheeeeee food is what I crave.....uggg....BUT article said I can't worry about my weight issue right now....when I get thru with this...I am sure my "good craving" will come back.....and COFFEE is still NOT what I drink anymore....that is my most FAVORITE food :).....(not really food)....Chemo does strange things to me.....
Off on my walk with my best friend Hudson......he will be happy to have me back

Went to the driving range today....first time in a long time

Took the girls to hit some golf balls and I HIT SOME TOOOOOOO......yeahhhhh.....fun and felt good.
I am getting nervous about my next infusion but really working hard to keep myself occupied and not think about the next one.
Nice to feel the sunshine on my face and swing the club again....I actually could drive the ball.....yeahhhh

Hummmmmm......I thought I wouldn't get my period thru all of this....and SURPRISE.....today....how fun....chemo brain and period together....fun times......oh well....at least some of my body is still functioning normal somewhere...........just  a little way to make things fun out of these chemo days.
The cancer society said I was 25 percent done.....ugggg......sounds......like a little amt.....I am shooting for April as my month to shoot for.......so.....apples are my new favorite food....they taste sooo good and make me feel somewhat normal

Off day

The lady at the cancer society said I was 25% done with treatments. Uggggg that seems like nothing. Today I am a little "off". Hope the meds kick in. I cooled off on meds yesterday but now I am not quite feeling it today :(

Ugggg.......hair thing is hard

Having a hard time with hair loss.....my girls love rubbing their fingers thru the hair but when I look at myself I look sad.......ugggg...this is hard

Hair gone :(

Shaved hair today...cried and cried and cried.......ugggg...this is hard
But.....it will come back.........right????
Feeling not as bad after this past chemo session....not as "puckeeeeeee" as my doct calls it :)
I didn't thinking losing my hair would be so hard BUT....my 6 year old giggled, jumped up and down and rubbed my head and smiled.....she said she liked it :)
That made my heart happy.
Kids.....sure make the world a better place
