Today was my 3rd Chemo treatment.

Feeling very tired the last week, hoping to feel better after I start my chemo trip this weekend. It certainly doesn't seem like three weeks have gone by. I heard that the treatments are not as rough after the first three. I am scheduled for 3 more treatments so far. Before  my next one I am going to have a bone scan and pet scan (detects cancer cells from the neck down) this will let us know if the chemo is working or not, I pray it is. I have seen how the other half lives, people go about their days and life's without a care and then the other half spend their days and weeks and years fighting for their lives. The offices are always so full. I meet some of the most amazing people, we share a different type of conversation than one has in a regular day.

Many different bugs different journeys yet all fighting the same fight and still there is always laughter, and joy. When you have hours to sit and visit with strangers, I think about how fast life moves outside of lounge. I would have never met these new friends I have found. Thank you Lord for giving me joy in the most unlikely place, it is just like you to turn fear into cheer. In this life, pain is inevitable, but misery is optional!

Thank you so much for all the cards, prayers and love you have really filled my heart!
