Well Monday was my second treatment and went, well, pretty much exactly like the first. I did however find out that my blood counts were pretty low so my Dr. wants me to take extra precautions to not get sick. This does involve me wearing a surgical mask when I'm in crowds, so...if you see me in WalMart or Target, I didn't just get a medical degree, it's dr's orders. For now though, I'm just going to try to stay away from crowds period.
As of right now, I still have hair! yay! They said day 10-14, and we are on day 17 I think, so I may just be running behind. I would love to think that this is a sign I will be one of the lucky ones who don't lose it, but I have to be prepared for reality. I told Zach last night that I noticed my head hurting a little, but I can't tell if it is just me being paranoid about it or I actually am having little pains. Either way, I have my hats and scarves on stand by.
On Tuesday, we laid my grandmother, Mary Hay, to rest. The funeral was beautiful and I know she is in smiling down on us now. I know how ready she was to see her brother and all of her sisters, especially my Aunt Margie and of course, my Poppa. She will be greatly missed, but we all know she is in heaven.
I'm noticing my notes are getting shorter as I go along. I know some of you are probably glad! The only reason is because my weeks are pretty boring (thank goodness) now that treatment has started. Especially the week of treatment, I pretty much sleep it away! Hopefully next week my counts will be back up and I can get out and do something!
