As the Chemo Drips...

After beating ovarian cancer once, I've been re-diagnosed. Here I'll share my journey of chemotherapy and surgery including the ups and downs, laughter and tears and everything in between.

up-date

Once I start feeling better I get too involved in doing too many things!  It has been a great week , finally got some plants in the window boxes and in the ground, thou there are some still sitting here waiting....cleaned out some boxes of stuff in the basement and had a garage sale that a neighbor organized.  Did quite well, really appreciated the help of Abby, Beth and Tracey.  We sold alot of stuff in a day as it rained on friday.  Packed up the few things that were left and took them to salvation army.

Had a Dr. apt yesterday and all is well.  My CA-125 is at 7.5.  Keeps going down so the chemo must be doing it's job.  We discussed when the chemo was going to end and he told me hopefully after my next cat scan, which will be in Sept.  Then we will figure out what type of maintenance therapy I will go on.  As always my red and white counts are down and need shots to help boost them up.  So all is well until next week when the chemo starts again..just need to tell myself I need to relax and rest and it will be over soon, good days are ahead!
