Hello everyone

Hi all, Today was my second cycle of chemo and it went as well as the first one.  My husband was with me again which I do appreciate.  He has to take the day of work to be there, but as he said, he would rather be with me for each treatment than have anyone else go. 

Yay, 2 down and 2 to go.  It will be all over by the end of next month and we are going to have a end of chemo party with close friends who that been supporting me through this journey.

I am even considering going back to work in an admin capacity for just 4 hours a week to see how things go.  I know that I can't do my regular job as it is too physical and the risk of infection is too great.  (I work with cats, cleaning cages, feeding and medicating the sick ones and then doing all the washing of the food bowls and litter trays afterwards)  At least I can go visit them after doing the admin so I still can get my cat fix.  Very theraputic.  I am looking forward to getting back there.

The past few weeks have been mostly good, with the last week being very good apart from the hair that is falling out.  So far it seems to be the perimiter of hair that is falling and I seem to be in competition with our 3 cats as to who can shed the most.  I have resorted to wearing hats or scarves on my head to contain the mess.  I found some soft silk in my fabric stash and hand painted it and hemmed it and it is making a very comfortable and pretty head piece.  I knew that keeping that piece would come in handy one day.  Just didn't expect it to be for this.  Tonya, the Headcovers.org web site was great and if I need any more I will get them from here.  they had a great selection of so many things.  Thanks.

Hoping this finds everyone doing as well as they can.  I think of you even when I don't post.

Cheers, Elayne
