It's My Birthday...

Well today is my birthday first and foremost.  I like everyone to know it’s my birthday, not for the reasons you are probably thinking.  I love it because it’s the one time of the year you can pretty much guarantee people take the time to think of what to write to that special person.  Bible verses are spoken to you; I don’t think I have ever had so many nice things said to me then on this day.  God made this special day for me just like he’s made you all special days…If that’s not a good reason to celebrate then I don’t know what is.

Ok, now what you all really want to know.  My neurologist seemed to agree with my Vancouver dad and me.  (Re; itchy skin torturing my body as well as my hair falling out again) so I’m back to rocking the head scarves.

I am starting a new anti seizure drug on Sunday (27^th) and then it’s about a 6 week process of coming off one to slowly get on the other one.  It’s a slow process; if it makes me stop itching then I can suck it up for a few months more.  The reason I am starting it on Sunday is because my birthday rib dinner is Sunday and I want to be able to enjoy them.  It’s the best dinner I have all year long and I’ve had good ribs but none compare to my mum’s.

I have an mri scheduled for November 18^th and then the results on the 20^th.  How great will that be if I get another three months off chemo?  I’m praying.

I think that’s it, nothing else really to say.  Please continue to pray for my itchiness especially on the souls of my feet, it’s like torture, no kidding.

Thanks for all your prayers, And a happy birthday to me.  Thank you all for your happy birthday wishes and your kind words of love and encouragement.  Bless you all.

And if you don’t find this song funny then I think you may want to check your humour on the humour scaleJ
