Happy 1st day of Spring. This weather has been amazing and I have been enjoying the spring weather "tease". I have been getting outside enjoying the weather and getting some fresh air. I think the weather has been good for my soul and my mood. I have discovered that my wig is SO hot in this weather so I hope my hair grows back before the dead of summer so I can go "topless" and not have to wear my wig. I have been very careful with my skin and bald head when I go outside. I try to stay covered up or stay in the shade. It's amazing how much a bald head sweats!!
I am getting geared up to have round 7 of 8. I can't believe how close I am getting now. This Friday I will be 90% of the way there. I see my oncologist on Wednesday and have my blood work taken. I have been feeling pretty good and only had aches and pains for a few days. I have been getting headaches though which, is a side effect of the Taxol so I'll have to ask the doctor about that this week. It could be that I am not drinking enough too. Any liquid has the consistency of baby oil and nothing seems to satisfy my thirst. But I am trying to force myself to drink water with a bit of juice for flavour.
We are all booked for April and cannot wait to get away for a few weeks and get on the beach. The boys will have SO much fun and we just love it there. 2 more hurdles/treatments first and then I can really look forward to the trip. It will be nice to reconnect as a family and create memories. For now, I am feeling good and looking forward to the end. That finish line is in sight :)
