FEB. 14, 2011 ANOTHER MILESTONE

HELLO:

Another 3 month check with my oncologist, and thank G. so far, so good. I go there not afraid, but always wary. I never expected on my regular yearly examination for anything to be different, and bingo, it was. So I know now that 'the fates' have their way of happening when we least expect a change. Now, I will have check ups every 4 months rather than 3, as well as regular bi-yearly mammograms and CA 125 tests for uterus. In the meantime, my fatigue accompanies me, but less violent than in previous months. My shoulder area, due to the cutting of lymph nodes during the operation continues to give me problems, and I am seeking to return to the specialist for 3rd and 4th injections to relieve the constant pain and difficulty in movement. But alongside all of this, I am very thankful that I am where I am.

It continues to be an adjustment without my companion little dog. But I was prepared for it in advance, and know that it comes to us all at some point. So I continue on and hold the precious memories tight in my heart.

I hope that anyone reading my personal blog is feeling well and coping with life's challenges. I pray for all who are ill either physically or challenged mentally with life's difficult times.

Until another time
Shalom
