A few things…

Hi Everyone,

I am sorry that I haven’t updated in a while. Nothing has really changed in terms of my treatment. I continue to be treated on a daily basis. It doesn’t take long once you’re in, but sometimes they are running a bit behind. Good thing they have a puzzle. I don’t mind waiting, if there is a puzzle. We finished the tough puzzle and have just about finished the new puzzle. It’s kind of amazing to sit there and think that so many different people work on the puzzle – people who are fighting the beast and their support team.
Treatment seems to be going well. I am a little more pink by the day, and the doctor says it is going to worse before it gets better. I am halfway through the tough part of the radiation. When this part ends, then I’ll have a few treatments directly to the scar. I am looking forward to May 23rd, when all these treatments are behind me. I know that I’ll have to have scans every three months, which will bring on major “scananxiety” (a term I recently ran across), but I trust in the Lord and know that I am in His mighty hands. With that knowledge, comes an amazing, indescribable peace.

Sol is feeling much better, although his tonsils is still sore and inflamed. Please continue to pray for him. Kai continues to be a wonderful little boy! He is so active and adorable. He learns and uses new words every day! It’s amazing to see him grow and learn. The big news there is that he peed in the potty for the first time. He was so proud of himself! He hasn’t done it since, but he’s interested!

The last thing to report is that I have an appointment tomorrow for my prosthetic tatas. Oooh, La, La!!! I’ve experienced the gamut of sizes in my existence, and by far being in the middle is the best place to be. I guess that’s one good thing about this process…I’ll finally have the size I’ve always wanted. It’ll be an interesting experience I’m sure, and sorry, NO photos of this fitting will be posted! It’ll only be in my memory! 😉

Farewell for now. God bless,

Monica

    Sounds like things are on the up and up, which makes me *so* happy.

    Love to you all!

    Glad to hear things are going along as they should. You were always a puzzle fiend, remember when I had one in my apartment? I have some pics from the shower to send. My Outlook needs to be reloaded first.

    Dude, seriously…that is an AWESOME post. So funny. Just good clean fun. Let me know how it all turns out…I’m thinking of getting some implants, too. 😉

    Saw your most recent post. Will be praying.

    Blessings.
