I Can Do This

{Via}

I had a really full day yesterday. I spent a huge chunk of time revamping at my booth space because of the hutch selling the day before. It's great that the hutch sold, but it was a major anchor and held a lot. As I suspected, everything was all on the floor when I got there...so I plugged in my ipod and got to work.
My Chemo Ed class was at 2:00 so I left and rushed across town (should have left a little earlier, I was a little late, whoops). The chemo ed was so, so helpful...a lot of the unknowns were talked about and my questions answered. The nurse that was explaining it all to me clearly knows her stuff. I found out all sorts of information like exactly what my regimen will be and how long per day, side effects of chemo, side effects of the pill I'm taking, and what I'll be feeling...what to expect or not. It's true, knowledge is power...I'm feeling ready to take this thing on.

By the end of it I was exhausted and glad that I got to bring a lot of the information home to read over. But, I know that no one can fully prepare you for chemo therapy, but I'm glad that at least I've got an idea of what will be happening. I'll just have to take one day at a time.

After I picked up the kiddies, we headed to McDonald's. Not that this is unusual, but that evening was "McTeacher's Night" where Mickey D donates 15% of the proceeds to Logan's school...so we braved the crowd and picked up dinner.

Today, I am feeling rested and I am headed out to get supplies for wreath making to fill up my Etsy shop....that's code for flower shopping. :)

Tomorrow, I have a cat scan and ultrasound and an appointment with the surgeon about putting in a port for the chemo, which apparently I will just love because it will be located in a major artery and the little veins in my arms will thank me.

Thank you for your continued support, you guys are helping me so much...my own little support group. :)

I can do this.
