Just got back from my second round of four treatments, of my third and final chemo drug. My heart looks really healthy through all this, and my blood levels are great. What a blessing!This treatment took about 3 1/2 hours to administer. They started with Benadryl and then added Taxol and then the Herceptin. The Benadryl knocked me out completely and I slept on and off the whole time. It was so nice to get some sleep! Craig came up and brought Lenny's Sandwiches for lunch. We ate together, but I'm sure I wasn't very good company.
I'm still a bit foggy in the head -- I picked up Tolan at Lisha's house and started to put his car seat in the trunk! That would be fun one to explain to law enforcement! Alana played at Jen's house and had a great time.
Craig's parents are on their way right now from Conway, Arkansas to help us out for the next few days. They made arrangements so that they can be here for these last three treatments. I love my in-laws!
Lisha made our family dinner tonight, and my great neighbor Jessica is bringing over dinner on Friday. I did all the laundry and cleaned the house yesterday. I have my prescription drugs on hand. Bring on the pain -- I'm ready!!!!

I hope the pain isn't as bad as last time Cheri! I'm grateful for all the good people who are taking care of you. Don't put the babe in the trunk. :) We love you!
Go Cheri! I'm glad you've got some people taking care of you. You're a strong little lady.
Hold tight till day 5! You'll feel normal again soon! Love you and praying for you!
