The Other Side... of a Bump in the Road

Front of card from a dear friend :h

A few other things that really made me SMILE last week

Balloons from my Bestie :)
Time with my Precious Daughter <3
Cooper literally STANDING on top of Awesome Son xD
AND...
'nuff said :tup

Of course Precious Daughter and I think THIS vintage mojo contributed to the victory! 
(Sorry dawgie fans - but I REALLY hope you beat the game chickens ;) )

So,
  • Surgery was a success :)
  • Counts were UP today :)
  • Round #4 is in the books :)
  • NO MORE :v !!!
Next Wednesday will mark the halfway point in my treatment!

    :e     :party     :e     :party     :e     :party     :e

I saw the COOLEST thing in the chemo suite this morning.  The nurses all surrounded a patient who was DONE with her chemo regimen and sang :tone :tone :tone to her!!!  Is was so AWESOME - they even harmonized!  I can't wait for my turn (I'll record it and share :tup).

Oh, I nearly forgot!!! (not really) ANOTHER :) for the week:

Dear Brother's BRCA test was NEGATIVE!!!    
  :tup     :e     :tup 

Awesome Son came in with us this morning and had his blood drawn.  I'm counting on a 75% negative return on my genetic investment ;)

Now it's off to fight the side effects of another round...

I've been TOLD that the SEs from Taxol (my next set of 4 treatments) are not quite as bad (except for the rigged, black, falling off nails! - but that's just SOME people :i  )

The thought I'll close with was shared by an :angel supporter and encourager:

Hugs to all of you who've been following my journey :h
Just another bUMp in the road!
