A great day!

Caroline had a great day for several reasons:

1) Limited pain

2) No pain meds throughout the entire day, except 8 AM (for preventive maintenance)

3) Nausea was non-existent

4) Had lots of good food - maybe more than me

5) Energy level was very good

6) Good visit with the doctors

7) Everybody we met today was very positive

8) Chemo went well

9) Caroline got a haircut by a special friend

And Steve had a great day for several reasons too:

1) Caroline had a great day

2) Naomi had a great day

3) Caley had a great day

4) My stress level dropped by about 80%

God bless,

Steve

ROUND 2

Hi everyone.

Second round of chemotherapy has begun today.  Hello from the 4th Floor!  I have approximately 2 1/2 hours left here in the Infusion Suite.  Feeling okay -- just drowsy and very warm.  ☹   The heat on this end of the suite is a bit high, so it's not just me.  ッ

Had an appt with the doc before coming here and she adjusted my meds a bit.  Am hoping for less harsh effects on my system this go-around -- we will see!  Please, please pray!

Have an appt next Tuesday to go to the "Look Good, Feel Better" session, where I can play around with makeup, wigs, and scarves, and maybe get some of that stuff for my own for free.  I have 2 knit/crocheted hats to wear over my just-about-absolutely bald head right now.  One hat was made my neighbor, and one by by mom.  But they may be a bit warm soon.  They are definitely nice at night, keep my head warm and my pillow less hairy.  Picked up some wig/scarf brochures here at the Center -- there are some real cute ones!  Scarves are definitely cheaper than wigs.  Hoping I can get one or two soon. ☺

Benadryl has worn off again I think -- am experiencing that "antsy" feeling in my legs again.  Am going to sign off for now.  More later!  Thanks ever so much for your loving prayers.  I love you all!  ♥  ✞Caroline
