middle of it!

I'm in the middle of my last big round of chemo! Bartt and i went away Sunday and came back today - it was nice to not have to get up so early and travel back and forth. We found an inexpensive hotel that was nice and had breakfast included - right down the road. I'm home now and traveling down for day 3 with Mary Ann - an aerobic's class friend tomorrow. At the moment i'm scheduled for surgery on March 2 to take out my ports in my abdomen and hopefully fix the scar tissue that sits on my small intestine, so i can back to a normal diet. That will be nice! That's all for now. take care everybody and thanks ALWAYS for checking in :D

    Yay, Laura! What fabulous news! One month to go and can you hear all those good foods calling? I will continue thinking of and praying for you, especially now that the end is in sight, that everything will go even better than planned so you will be free of all the remnants of this long journey of yours. Thanks for keeping us posted, honey!

    Hello, Laura! It's so wonderful to see how much progress you are making with the chemo. I'm sure there has been a point in your treatment when you felt like it would never end, and now look where you are! You're such a strong, wonderful chick and I admire you so much. I was telling a coworker about you the other day. She had been looking at my etsy shop and wanted to purchase my EPE pendant, so I told her about how I followed your blog and how inspired I was by it. Then she bought the pendant, and I'm so excited because I get to make my first donation! Keep up your positive attitude and your lovely smile, because it's contagious to all of us who keep up with you!
