Sorry that it has taken me so long to get back on here. Sometimes its a little crazy. Well, Mom made it through the first round of chemo like a champ. She didn't experience any sickness. We all feel very blessed for that. This weekend we decided to cut her hair... We did a short little boy cut. We had been told that will help to ease the shock when it begins to fall out. She looks cute as a button! We have had 4 good days in a row. Her spirit is up and her sense of humor is back. What a wonderful time for us! After 3 months of not knowing what was wrong and then a month of her dealing with the diagnosis, it is wonderful to start to see some of the "Old Mom" coming back. I know that it is silly, but there were days that I wondered if we would ever sit around and laugh again. But thankfully, I see that you do find that new normal. It is always on your mind, but sometimes you can actually look past it for a minute. I do have to say I'm a little nervous. We go to the oncologist this Friday, the 11th for the first chest x-ray since she was diagnosed. I hope for good news. I don't know how she will handle anything but good news. Then we start our 2nd round of chemo on the 16th. So far, she is coming through this with flying colors. She is truly my inspiration right now. In this journey, we have been so fortunate to find so many wonderful people along the way. Cancer is such a terrible thing for all involved, but I do have to say, it has completely changed my outlook on life. You all have been an inspiration to me. Sometimes I can't find the words to type anything out, but just reading helps me to find a little peace sometimes. Thank you all!
