Four down, two to go

Just a quick post to let everybody know my fourth session of chemo went well yesterday.  One of my sons accompanied Paul and me, and he sat with me the majority of the time while Paul “worked remotely” from the waiting room.  We had good conversation together, and I’m glad we were able to share some quality time.  He’s not squeamish about needles and such, so I think he actually enjoyed watching my chemo nurse access my port to get the ball rolling.

Paul went back to work full time on Monday and seems to be managing well with the schedule.  He’s been tired in the evenings but not so much so that he isn’t able to recover for the next day.  I think he’s enjoying getting out of the house on a regular basis after being largely cooped up for several weeks recovering from surgery.

This morning, I’ve been feeling pretty good.  Not very tired at all, though I know an afternoon nap is probably in order, if the residual steroids will allow it.

We’re thoroughly enjoying having meals brought to us from friends in the community during chemo weeks.  I’m so thankful for this help.  It makes our lives so much easier, and — if I’m awake when the food arrives — it’s so nice to have a brief visit from the meal provider.  Thank you all again for your assistance.  It really means the world to us to have such caring friends.

And thank you to the rest of my readers.  I now have over 60,000 page views of my blog!  Your support and comments make this girl feel loved.
