Life Update~ July - Aug 10th

 Hey Ya'll!!

So far summer has been rainy, and HOT! 

I finished up chemo, then we went on a mini vacation to visit family in Indiana. (To respect their privacy I won't be sharing pics of our trip, too many minors involved.) 

We had a good time, and it would have been nice to have had a longer trip. We are going to try to plan something longer for next year, hopefully they can come here!

July 4th we chilled at home, the 5th we went out to my sister's and had dinner & fireworks. 

I asked at last chemo and was told I had to wait 3 weeks on the dietary restrictions, so ASAP we took my sisters kids out to sushi since they like it and neither my sister or brother-in-law do. So yummy!

We were finally able to get all the donations out of the house, and clear up the entry way. YAY!

Spent time w/ my family, and just hanging out together at home.

On the 21st I had my CT scan, the prep drink was the grossest thing I've ever drank in my life, absolutely horrible! IT was supposedly orange flavored, but who knows. All I know is it was a struggle to keep down.

 

 Then we waited...one very long week for the results. During that time we all (sister, niece, mom, and I) painted Mom's kitchen, while the guys worked on her Laundry Room floor.

Tuesday the 28th I had my check up, port flush, and CT results......

I am N.E.D. (No Evidence of Disease)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hallelujah!!

From now on it's port flushes every 6 weeks, and scans/check ups every 3mo for 3 yrs, then every 6mo for an additional 2 years. 

Lastly, to finish this up Chris started work today! It's been weird being here by myself today. Quarantine pretty much started right after my 1st chemo, so I was lucky and didn't have to be alone for any of it. Hard to believe that's been 5mo!

Hope you're all well! Thanks for letting me share my life with you! 

Have a great day,
