I am soooo grateful to feel almost normal today!!! Not nauseated, food is tasting close to normal and my spirits are lifted. I still tire quickly, but that should get better also. I had an appointment this morning for post-op with the surgeon who put the port-a-cath in and this afternoon I have to go have blood drawn at Arizona Oncology, but those are all the appointments I have this week!! I don't have chemo again until next Monday and I am looking forward to a week of near normalcy. This weekend I was so totally out of energy that I spent most of my time in bed, on the couch, or in the recliner. I spent a lot of that time thinking about all the blessings in my life and reminding myself that this too shall pass and everything we experience provides us with another diminsion to who we are. My son and his wife have developed a habit with their young sons that each night they kneel in prayer together prior to going to bed and after the prayer they gather together and have a group "squish hug". Those squish hugs are the best! Well, since being diagnoised with breast cancer, I feel that I have been in the middle of an enormous group squish hug with all my family and friends. Here is a photo of flowers I received from a dear friend who lives out of state. I've also received flowers from those in town, cards, letters and telephone calls to check on me. Thank you, I love you all!
