New Schedule

Well either I misunderstood the doc, or he changed his mind somewhere along the way regarding my treatment schedule...but it's going to be a little different than I originally thought.  He initially told me there would be 3 weeks between rounds, but I found out from the nurse that there will actually be 3 weeks from the beginning of one round to the beginning of the next.  That basically means that week 1 of each round will be spent getting chemo drugs, week 2 will be getting that out of my system (probably at home, unless I can shake off the effects faster than I did the first round), and week 3 should be my "good week".  Then I'll start another round the following Monday.  Today is the beginning of week 3 and I am back at work - feeling like a normal human being again finally!  Round 2 begins Monday, July 26th. Boy, chemo really does kick you in the butt!  There is a long list of possible side effects - some of which I didn't experience, but several which I did.  Suffice it to say that I have a new respect for the many people who have been through this before me...I didn't realize what troopers they were and I feel bad now for not being more attentive and... just aware of what they were going through.   
I cannot write a blog post without saying thank you again to the many people who have been so nice and have done so much to help me...I just can't even list everything, but for the food, house cleaning, shopping, lawn care, phone calls, thoughts, prayers, words of encouragement, gifts, cards...just thank you SO MUCH for everything.  My sister was reading some of my cards and she said, "Gosh Susan, you have a lot of people who really like you and miss you".  (Seemed a little surprised by that, but...).  And I replied, "I KNOW - I HAVE GOOD PEOPLE!"  I do. I have good people.  Much love to all of you.
Thanks for reading,  Susan
