Still Feelin' It!

I am still feeling really well!!! How amazing is that! I can't believe it myself. I've had a really great week of just relaxing and hanging out with Thomas and his friend Dan from college. Today I went to Target- my first outing alone in some time. Now that I'm not on pain meds I can drive! It felt great! If you read Thomas' blog, you heard about my nerve damage in my feet. It feels really weird walking- it feels weird in general. Like my feet have been stuck in snow all day. A little tingly, a little numb. And I'm going to have it forever now!!! Crazy. A small price to pay to be alive. Dr. Chahin said there are meds I can take to decrease the sensation but there really is no need while I'm on chemo. I still have my hair- this new chemo is suppose to make it fall out within 14 days after treatment- today is the 16th day. Dr. Chahin says I'm washing my hair with sampoo glue to keep it in- he's so funny.

My oldest nephew Christopher recently enlisted in the Marine Corps and is now at Boot Camp!! It's really cool because we leave 7 minutes away from Parris Island where he is training. That means when his graduation rolls around in 13 weeks: #1- we will get to be there, #2- we will get to see all the family that come, #3- what a cool experience to be a part of......And Thomas is excited to go over and stick his head in to make sure he's getting the crap kicked out of him! Just kidding but he is going to try to go over and see if he can get the low down. I'm really proud of Christopher and hope he learns a lot from this experience. How can he not.

And now a little lovin' for my husband.....I love you Thomas. Thank you for all your love and support. Thank you for taking me home to visit the family. You're the greatest.

And thank you to all of you for your wonderul comments! They make me feel so loved. : )
