saturday

not much is new here, just continuing to heal and take antibiotics. i go to dr. h on monday to get my stitches out and decide if i need to continue on 3 more weeks of antibiotics or not. then i go on wednesday for lab work to see if i can have chemo or not. i'll meet with dr. c that day, too. i'm really hoping to start chemo again. i'm ready to be done with all this crap.

my hair has been thinning out, but i still have enough that i don't need to wear a hat or shave my head, so that's good. i'm going on monday to get a trim- around my ears and my neck. i'm trying not to get too attached to it, but losing it again will really suck. i'm guessing when i start chemo up again, it will fall out. or at least thin to the point that i need to shave it. blurg.

i'm really getting nervous about staying healthy and avoiding swine flu, and all the upper respiratory crap that seems to be going around already. if i get sick, then they can't give me my treatments. so i'm trying to avoid all that. and i'm planning to get the vaccines. though i'm not sure if i'll be able to if i'm still on antibiotics. we'll have to see, i guess...

so glad that you are feeling well. I am praying for you to stay healthy and be able to move ahead with treatments (and keep your little bit of hair).
