Friday Update

Sorry the Friday update is not being posted on Friday but I am feeling well and have been taking advantage of it!  It's amazing how a diagnosis like this can change your perspective on everything.  Totally true - I was excited about doing laundry this week.  It was the first time I had done laundry since the February phone call (yes, my husband and mom are that fabulous!) so doing a load of laundry took on a whole new significance.  It meant...
     Being a cancer patient does not define who I am this week. 
     I can take care of myself.
     I can take care of my family.  And anyone who knows me well enough knows that I am not fond of being dependent on anyone - this week I am contributing to the world instead of only taking from it.  It's been a great week! 

Friday blood work looked better than expected, which means we are on track for next week's round of cocktails.  I will meet with my oncologist on Thursday to review all the results and if it looks as good as it does now I will have the second round of cocktails on Friday, 4/12.
