Checking In . . .

 I am just posting a quick update.  I had chemo again on Monday and am in the downhill slide of chemo effects for a few days.  I will be back next week with more "making",  "loved ones" and "fight information".  

Love to you all.

A different kind of week . . .

Quick update today on the cancer fight journey . . . 

1. The maker . . . 

I haven't done much to create anything new.  Well - yesterday I made some gluten free cornbread and muffin tops. We ate some and we froze some.  

2. The love . . . 

My Bob continues to amaze me with his support and taking care of everything while I am kind of off in the hinterlands with the ups and downs of the chemo.  Just to be sure to include a picture, here is a picture I came across of my mom's mom - Hannah.  She was is the one in the middle and she passed away before I was born so I never knew her.  She grew up in North Dakota where she was one of a family of 12 children.  Her parents came to this country from Denmark.  I can see a lot of family resemblance.  

3. The fight . . .

I continued to be really tired when I went in to the Cancer Center on Monday for blood drawing to make sure my "numbers" were ok for chemo on Tuesday.  I needed a transfusion and that was done in the ER.  We got home about 11 pm Monday night. Chemo was changed to today so we headed that way early this morning.  My heart rate was still higher than they wanted so no chemo today and I am rescheduled for chemo on Monday.  I will have my echo cardiogram tomorrow to see how things are going in that area.  It is just onward.
