There have been some great improvements in my emotions and in my daily activities!!  The meds that we increased to aide in settling down the panic attacks that were occurring after I began Tamoxifen.  I am also finding myself being able to do a little more each day as my energy level seems to be increasing gradually.  These are some of the wonderful things I am thankful for today!

This past weekend I went camping with my family.  We were at Jellystone up in Wisconsin with many friends.  It was a nice time but I did have some trouble with sleeping and with achy bones.  It was wonderful to watch the girls have a fantastic time with friends and enjoying Halloween fun at the campground.  By Monday I was more exhausted than I remember being in a long time!  I came home, showered and then spent the day in bed trying to feel better.  I am now recovered today!!

This is a treatment week so I will be going back to the Oncology office so they can give my Herceptin.  Please pray that the IV can go in with less stress than last time!  I am praying my veins miraculously strengthen and pop up for the nurses!  I will be so relieved when the treatment is over!!!

I read a fantastic saying this weekend:  "Happiness is beautiful!"  I realized that so many commented at how I was glowing throughout last year and when I smile.  I see now that my consistent happiness even through the toughest times really did bring out the beauty in me.  I am so proud of the way I have fought this battle!
