I survived!

I survived my first chemo treatment. It didn't hurt or last for very long. I had to have some blood drawn first, send it to lab, see the dr., and then go to the infusion center. I was given some medicine to prevent nausea that lasts for 3 to 5 days. The nurse double checked my chemo medicine because it wasn't dispensed like the dr. ordered and so we had to wait for more medicine to be added to that. Then, I got my chemo. It went in through my port and took about 20 minutes. I went to eat with Jeff and came home to nap. However, I haven't napped but only rested because I couldn't sleep.

I am excited, nervous, anxious but not really scared. I have been told three times in the last few weeks that God has spoken to people and that I am healed. And I believe that. My new preacher prayed over me at church yesterday and said I am glowing with God's grace. Now, I just have to go through the medicine part for my body. I go tomorrow afternoon to get my shot to boost my immune system. Then I won't go back until the 20th for the next treatment.


Keep praying for my family and me. We are strong and I am going to beat this. Call if you want. I am fine! Love ya!
