Living life... and watching the Giants.

I am enjoying my first week being out of treatment. It's exciting and unnerving at the same time. There was so good news last week. My liver function test results and my tumor markers were all deemed "perfect" and yes, that's a direct quote. That's not a guarantee of anything, but it's a good first step.

Radiation was a little more interesting that I expected. I am managing the burns now. It's pretty gross, but at least I am done. Nothing Silvadene and some non-stick guaze can't help. Makes me really appreciate any firemen who have ever been injured. Burns are not fun... They are gross and painful.

So, we are in the midst of a very short break in my family. Mom's surgery is Thursday. So therefore, we enjoy a full 9 days out of cancerland before we head back in for round two. Please keep us (really her) in your prayers this week. Pray for Dr Warden, that she does what she's awesome at and is on her best game on Thursday.

On another note, Go Giants... (not sure if they will still be in this by the time everyone reads this or not. time will tell)

  1. Your mom of course will be in my thoughts and prayers. I will continue to lift you up in my prayers too. You are a true fighter....my thoughts, and love are always with you-and your mom too. :) Take care.
