Why I chose my blog name-

I have a very young friend named Kyle who told me about HIS world- a place of positivity, love, peace and happiness. He is an inspiration to me as he always sees the best in everything life throws your way. I am going to face this challenge like Kyle would-with positive thoughts and lots of laughter! Please join me in my world, on my journey to conquer this disease. As my "sisters" and I used to sing at the top of our lungs- I Will Survive!!!

Here Comes Round 2

Well, here I am, a week later. The morning is not as pretty and I don't feel as pretty as I did last weekend either.  I know, I know, I have to stay positive but every once in awhile those nasty negative thoughts come creeping in. It is really the fear of the unknown and the fact that my hair is falling out pretty quickly, although I did get two compliments on my adorable hair cut last night. LOL

Round 2 of Chemo is tomorrow (as long as my bloodwork is ok) and I am a little nervous. Not of the process, that is easy. Sit in the chair for hours, with Craig by my side, and pass the day while the drugs drip in. It's how I will feel after? That is the question. I hate feeling sick, let alone getting sick. I know it's all part of the process but it's the part that sucks.  Sorry, I think I'm just crabby because I didn't sleep well last night.

On a more positive note, I had a great week. I continued to walk in the mornings and do whatever I want. I really haven't felt exhausted. On Thursday,  the "ladies" came over for a "happy hour" visit. They drank and I didn't. It was great seeing everyone and catching up. I miss being at school with my friends and those germy kids!

Another positive, my wig (aka hair appliance) came in the day after my hair started to fall. Perfect timing! I saw it the other day and it's beautiful. I can't wait to try it on and have it styled. Of course, I will document the entire experience with photos so stay tuned.

Thanks for checking in. I love you all!

    I can certainly understand the stress of the unknown aka how you will feel after treatments. Just keep doing what you are doing. Taking those walks and outings when you are up to it, enjoying the visits from your friends.
    I'm glad your wig came in and I smile when I think of an earlier comment that Craig had posted, that he looks forward to the excitement of you having a different color each day.
    You are blessed to have each other :)
    Keep marching to your beat!!
