One down...

YEAH!  The port worked so well and drawing bloods was the easiest it has ever been!  Medical technology is amazing and I take back all my bad words I had for this surgery to put the port in!  :)

I had a rough night!  I was nauseous by evening and down for the count for the rest of the night!  I slept on and off until 10pm and then went to sleep until 6am which felt great!!!

I had an 8am appointment at Lake Forest Hospital to get my shot for the White Blood Cell booster.  My mom was the angel to come over and pick me up to get me to the hospital for this!  We had a good time together without any distractions.  The shot went well and the we even went to theLiberty for some good breakfast food.  I am realizing that I will have a new norm of living with dizziness when it comes to all these medicines in my system.  I am beginning to learn little tricks and am sure I will find out even more.

Yesterday was an anxious day that went better than expected at the oncologists office.  It was also a beautiful day for my girls because everyone who took them and gave them a break from all the reality at home made it a perfect day!  The twins enjoyed an old-fashioned day of play on the ice with good friends and many other indoor fun as well. Katelynn turned 9 yesterday and the friends that picked her up and threw her a party were wonderful!  It will take all of you to help us through and no one has let anything fall through the cracks!  We love you all!
