I had Chemo on Thursday. My levels were OK but my RBC was really low, so instead of giving me a shot of Nuprigin and everyday go in to check it, they gave me a good dose that will last 3 weeks ($ 4000.00 shot). Unfortunately, it affects my bones and chest. I feel so exhausted and can't get out of bed because I have bricks on my chest. On Friday I spent the day in bed. Jack played really nice, he's getting into the action heroes. The Doctor told me he took my case to a seminar and I had more cancer then was originally thought. He still believes they got it all from the breast and lymph nodes. I don't have an appetite and my taste buds are messed up. I don't even have a craving for chocolate, what's that all about. I do enjoy a Wendy's Frosty, feels good on the throat. I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving, going to my brother John's.
I thank God everyday for giving me another day and I pray that he continues to give me the patience and strength to deal with the lows as graciously as possible. I have never waivered on why me. As the saying goes, it is what it is. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and remember to talk to God, he's always there for you and loves to listen.

Cathy: You remain in my prayers. Try to remember that when your "bones" hurt, it means the medicine is working and is the sign that your body is fighting for recovery. I truly hope that you enjoy Thanksgiving, and know that you are held in prayer by many. Jane
