i have continued to heal well... my drains are all out, and i'm feeling pretty good :) i'm still sore, and working on regaining my range of motion. right now my right arm is doing really well. the left arm is a bit behind, due to the infection, but my physical therapist thinks that i'll get back to 100% with some work.
the good news is that i am able to sleep on my side again! hurray! now that the drains are out i can move a bit more freely. i'm able to wear normal clothes again, too :) so, at least i'm regaining some sense of normalcy :)
i still have a 10lb weight limit, so my mom is still helping out with the girls during the week. they've been having a good time with each other, but i think poor gma is getting tired. i'm really looking forward to taking care of my girls on my own again, but i'm told it will be about another 3 weeks. ugh.
tomorrow i have a follow-up CT scan and lab work. i'm hoping for no surprises. if all goes well, then i can start chemo again on wednesday. so, cross your fingers for everything to be as expected... if i start chemo on wednesday, and don't have to push any of the treatments back due to low bloodcounts, then i'll be done with all of this by halloween :) i am *really* hoping for that!

so happy that you can wear normal clothes and sleep again! :) I am hoping that your counts are normal and you can be done with everything by Halloween. I will keep good thoughts coming in your direction!

Don't worry about Grandma...She is very happy being able to spend so much time with her (3 & sometimes 4) girls... with the added bonus of being able to wear flip flops!!!=))
luv mum
