I wrote on the blog a couple weeks ago and I see it didn't post, don't know why. I must of deleted it. I'm good at that I try to message Shaun on the phone and I accidentally delete it. I then quit it takes me too long. I don't know how the kids do it.
I am still getting my treatments and the shot for my levels on the second session. It hurts but I'm getting used to it. The needle doesn't hurt at all its when the medicine goes into my body. I did get 4 hours of MRI's taken on Friday. There was a mess up and my Doctor refused to give me a referral for my specialists MRI's, so we had to go to a clinic and have the CD and report sent to her. I asked the nurse why this now, she claimed it was the economy. I haven't heard from her or my Oncologist yet. I do however have an appointment with my GP Doctor, he called me because he found out that I have a herniated disc in my cervical spine (neck). He said it doesn't look good. I might not feel that much pain cause I still am experiencing numbness in my back and chest. I also still have the pain in my left arm pit, that seems to keep me up at night. Jack and I went home with my parents for about 5 days. It was a nice break. I will see Dr. A tomorrow at 2 and let everyone know the results.

Same Treatments for Now
I had a chemo treatment today. My levels were all good. I go back next Thursday.
I feel pretty good right now. I'm in bed with a heated blanket, cause it's so cold. I don't have to worry about dinner because my awesome neighbors and friends bring my family and I dinner on Thursdays. The meals are always different, and very good. Oh, and let me not forget, I am in bed with Jack and 3 of his toys/books, Phoenix and Betty (two large dogs-labs) and Bella the cat. My niece Colleen had her port removed and she is doing great, clean bill of health.
Here's 2 people I talked to today. 1- she graduated and is done with chemo 1- this guy told me in March he was diagnosed with liver, colon, and brain cancer. He went to radiation and chemo. He had surgery with most removed. Nov. he was cleared, no signs. He went 1 month later for a cat-scan, its back. 1 month!!! He was devastated.
He was also very upset that the meds hes on is making him breakout like a teenager.
