It's Inevitable

I feel fine, wonderful, like my own self again

but

it's inevitable....

I have another chemo

.....in 10 days.

I want to say "I feel fine, I don't want any more treatments".

but

the test reports say otherwise.

So

in those forthcoming days 

I have plans:

coffee with a friend,

the Stamp a long,

an appointment to discuss wigs,

dentist (not too excited about that one),

book club,

spending my friend's gift certificate at the thrift store,

more lab work and another Dr appointment,

and

a 4 day bus trip to Nashville, TN.

The bus trip with other Red Hatters has been planned for months. Carolee and I have gone on 2 other trips with them and we enjoy it so we signed up right away!!!

Originally my 2nd chemo was scheduled for that Monday, but I talked to the Dr and he moved it to Thursday when I'm back. YAY!!!

I have several trips or events planned this summer and it looks like my chemo treatments are scheduled for after them.

I consider myself lucky - I have all of my hair, although it looks like crap. It's dull as can be :-( and I'd like to color it.....but I won't. 

What will happen after round 2???

Loosing my hair will really bother me, I know it will. I have naturally wavy red hair (even though it doesn't look like it now that's what I grew up with). It was never quite right when I was growing up - wrong color, too curly- but as I've grown into an adult I have developed a liking to it.

Thanks for taking the time for my musings...........

Hope you have/had a great Mothers Day!!!

We are having a partly cloudy day and the egg hunt will go on as planned.

I am sad that my sister is not coming, she doesn't feel wll and doesn't want to get me sick. Two of my son's will not be here either, but I will enjoy the company of those who will celebrate the day with us!!!!
