Nushka Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Cheryl, I think spunk is the right word for what you are doing. I admire you for being courageous and wish you only the best. Keep us posted as you are the astronaut here...going into space not yet seen. Nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pecola Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Cheryl, I go gray for NO ONE, either! You tell them sister! BTW, how is that wonderful husband of yours doing with all of this? You can tell he is absolutely crazy about you. I picture Jack in your corner with the water bottle and the towels as you go into the ring this round ready to K.O. this cancer beast in this new round!

-Cheryl- Posted July 30, 2004 Author Share Posted July 30, 2004 Hey gang, Thought I would update you all on what is supposed to be the worst day following chemo. I had a bit of a sour stomach this morning, which quickly abated and seemed instantly relieved with some Maalox. That is about it! I am not that tired, but hey, who really is when they sleep till noon? Well, all good things must come to an end. It is back to work hopefully on Monday. My chest still hurts from tome to time, but hydrocodone usually helps. I usually only take it at night, when at home. I cannot work when drowsy. I appreciate the encouragement greatly. Oh yes girls, if I don't lose the hair, then I will probably add a few highlights. It isn't really coloring my hair, but stripping the hair of it's color. It is done with a rubber cap and pretty safe. I only do it every few months or so. The whole head isn't done, and nothing touches the scalp. I actually enrolled in beauty school, following high school. I changed my mind about professions though. There are quite a few similarities in the professions of counseling and cosmotolgy though! Ha!

Connie B Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 Hey Cheryl, YOU GO GIRL!!! I am SO glad to hear the chemo is going OKAY!!! As for counseling and cosmotolgy, isn't that like couseling and bartending? Don't they go hand and hand??? I use to bartend many moons ago, and talk about an EDUCATION???? I'm still sending up lots and lots of prayers my friend that all will go VERY WELL for you and that this new treatment will be the magic we are looking for. Much love and lots of hugs to you and Jack! Con Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
