Progress

There is some progress in this very llllllooooooooonnnnnngggggg drawn out process..... Looking forward to Friday.  Dad, Sarah and I are heading to Seattle staying at the Seattle Cancer Care House right by the clinic and conveniently located 10 blocks from downtown where Westlake  is:)..... hmmmmm. 

Sissy is meeting up with us Friday AM for the doctor's consultation.  We have no idea what they are going to say or tell me about treatment.. this is like not finding out the sex of your child.  All I know is 3 weeks ago a doctor said the C word to me (Cancer), and I still feel like I'm waiting for a diagnosis.  Even though I'm shooting my self up everyday I just don't feel like for the "aggressive" cancer I have and the "aggressive" treatment they said I needed..... well I'm no doctor, but it just doesn't seem like this is very aggressive!  I want this shit gone, now.... hasn't cancer ever heard of ASAP?

Yesterday was hard, if something could go wrong, it did.  And considering my hormones are all messed up, I thought I was having a nervous break down....
I'm rambling now, characteristics morphine does, and a lot of times doesn't make sense. A big shout out to everyone and your support, good thoughts and prayers. To my Dad, Chels and Laura Raines for keeping Bentley and Liza entertained for me.  To my Mother, Sarah, Jenn, Denise and Erin for staying with me... (even though I tell them I'm fine, then I forget to take meds, so they're right.) My sister, brother and Sarah for fixing this website stuff for me, everyone who's been so awesome bringing me food, I have to say, for someone who hasn't been able to really eat, my refrigerator is more stocked now than it ever has been. Just to everyone helping in anyway they can, from Lauren's acupuncture to handy man Dave. Stay tuned, Jill has offered the DTC to do a benefit which Karley is brewin up.

For now it's Seattle, to mull over what the specialist say, and decide if to stille go to the Mayo Clinic in Houston for that 3rd opinion.  I figure if they say the same thing, then I'll know the treatment is right, right?

Love to all,
~S
