Dear Friends,
Yesterday, I had chemo and all went well. It's always the after effects that get me and unfortunately I don't remember this one. Travis called me before we got home and I told him I'd call him later. I did, but have no
memory of it and got mad at him for something. This morning I could not find my phone and finally found it on Travis's bed. I don't remember being in there at all. I remember watching TV and that's about all I remember. I don't even know if I ate anything last night.
Fortunately, I feel great today. I'm going to San Antonio tomorrow to see Jennifer. We are going to LaConterra and if I get tired I can always sit down. I will wear my new wig for her. It is amazing how differently you are treated when people know you have cancer. When I wear my wig people aren't for sure. But when I just wear a scarf people are super nice to you and usually give you special treatment. I find that very interesting.
Don't know much, just trying to do better on my blog.
See you soon.

Dear Friends,
Everything is going well. Whenever you do chemo, there is always side effects. Even though I am doing chemo one day a week, the side effect is my bones hurting. The pain medicine makes me itch and it is hard to get your rest when you are hurting and itching.
I've had two friends that just found out about my cancer that I used to work with. I do miss working with my friends, but I don't have time to work. Like today, I go to the doctor for a shot for my white blood count. That will take half a day. My chemo day is Thursday. I'm still chasing my potassium and magnesium. I am trying to be faithful in taking all of my medicine when I should.
One exciting thing I did over the weekend was get a wig. I tried on a lot of them before I picked one. My mistake was taking Travis and
Gary with me. But I talked to Gary before we went in and told him to not say I looked good in everything. He has a good eye with color and we finally found one that looked like me.
Please keep me in your prayers and thoughts. I go to MDAnderson on my birthday, November 8-9. I will see if this chemo has helped.
See you later.
