I’ve been in and out of hospital (I missed them)LOL.  I was finally kicked out on Dec. 18 after a weeks stay.  I keep telling myself that that hotel sucks so I don’t why I keep going there.  I should get frequent visit miles.  I’d be going to Greece right about now.  Anyway, below are some notes that I wrote so I’m sorry if they jump around a bit but I didn’t have Internet access while I was locked up JJ

Uhhhhhhh (big sigh);

well, the MRI was compared to the results I had taken in 2010 & 2011 at LGH. I have an appt. on the 31 to see my oncologist who was away today so he can compare my two latest MRI's. (September 11 and this one from last week.) The oncologist I saw today wasn't aware that there was any questions surrounding the MRI I just had so ...... Anyway one more week and God willing it'll be all figured out. I have someone from BCCA coming to 'seizure proof' my house and its covered by BCCA, blessing.

Anyway, that's what I know today. I will take my next hit of chemo at the end of the week. I made the pharmacist distributing the chemo laugh...when she gave me the two bottles each containing my pills I asked, "where's the presents? There's no presents in these bottles, that’s not very nice". She laughed and that made me feel good. Have to always know when to laugh.

Have a great Christmas guys and ill email you after the 31.

Well it turns at that Sasha (my oncologist) is not back on the 31, so I'm now seeing him on the 2@11:45. I've been squeezed in because apparently he is totally booked. Anyway, I'm getting kind of used to all the changing and waiting around.

Please pray for me, I am very dizzy again and that makes me very nervous seeing as I'm supposed to take my chemo today.

Got thru the night fine Amen

 

Now I'm eating breakfast and taking more anti nausea meds. Thanks for your prayers

My plan of course from my lesson learned last time is to lay low for the next couple days so I let all the toxins in my body settle down. They don't like to be disturbed once they go down, sensitive buggers they are.

 

They're not letting me come back to work more than two hours a day for the next couple weeks until I get all sorted out! I was so looking forward to getting my life back !!!!!!!

This is the part of the cancer that I hate. It is so disruptive. I just want to feel 'normal' and be able to do what I could before, and I know I have to just give it to God and trust him. I KNOW that but it's bloody hard when you are put under so many restrictions and please don't tell me "it could be worse..." Or "better off then a lot of people Melanie..." I know these things too.

It's not often I sit and allow myself to have a little pity party, so I'm allowing myself that. This sucks!!!

 

Day 2 back at work and I’m still trying to find a way to take my meds that works and doesn’t result with my laying on the couch.  I am prayerfully making it thru each day, a tad dizzy but not enough to rule over me.  I see my oncologist on Monday as well as my neurologist then on the 16 I see the radiologist at BCCA and as both my MRI’s were taken there I am SURE he will have answers for me.

In the meantime, be patient and know He is God and He’s got my back.

Keep praying and I’ll let you know when I know.
