So, today we {proverbial we....} are taking it easy. Totally staying on med schedule. Jenn has mastered the TPN so is on board for nutrition. Gerald's "Nutrition Break" club is taking on a whole new meaning.
We are hoping to get the chemo treatments going then continue at home. The side effects of this particular trearment are not suppossed to be drastic.
The stages of awareness of are slow in progress. At the Clinic, you can see the resigned look of acceptance on peoples faces. Luck is when the other guy gets hit with the arrow. Now, they are in it for the battle. {Sara's friend Dawn, who lives close by, even sent little plastic army guys.} There is still laughter and jokes. The strength of these people would put us all to shame for our petty grievances. This is a very hard lesson.
Sara will get through this, but it will forever change the way we look at life. I think her experience will affect the way we all see things. Good and bad. One thing for sure, Friends and Family are #1. You cannot imagine what it means to have that support. THANKS!
Good Afternoon My Lil Birds of Rare Plumage....I just posted on yesterdays opps, so I will say I Love You TOOOO Much and next week is the week, I have that intuition....Don't be afraid, as things usually aren't as bad as you assume, honestly I've learned that through the trials of life.
ReplyDeleteGOOD JOB jENNIFER, Sara has a complete team when she gets home, very cool! Take care of one another! Love U Mama LOu
Just wanted to drop in and tell you, Colleen, that your updates are so appreciated, thank you for taking the time to keep all of us in the know. We sit here hoping against hope that all will be well. Sara, I think William wants to drive over there and personaly kick cancers ass for you, I think it realy bothers him that somethings threatening you that he can't beat the crap out of. I'll keep him in Idaho though, and let you rest as you are in the best hands a girl could ask for. You are so loved here, we all miss you terribly and I'm sending you all my strength and love. - Devin

ReplyDeleteIt's so windy here! I'm hoping that the love I'm sending will get to you even quicker! I so appreciate the updates, too. Always happy to here of Sara's progress. XXOO
ReplyDeleteOops - that would be "hear". Sorry....
ReplyDeleteEvery once in awhile we are "awaken" to our core which in turn opens the door for God to work on us spiritually. Sara, your story, your family, your friends have "awaken me". You (all of you!) are an inspiration and evidence that LOVE and HOPE are the most important things in life. You will be in my prayers and I can't wait for the day to meet you in person and give you a big hug!! God Bless you!
