September 24th - Chemo #6

Another week of treatment has come and gone and the next one is two days away. Wow! The time is sure flying by quickly, and each week it seems to get crazier and crazier! I'll be honest there are times when I'm not sure whether I'm coming or going. Trying to keep up with teaching, being a mom and wife, and all the household chores etc, sometimes it's tough. But, as I've said before, we are thankful for all the blessings we have in our lives and we just take one day at a time. I know that's what we all do right? So very many people have stepped up to help out: my mom has been helping with cooking and cleaning, some friends have been contributing meals, and I have lots of friends that let me "vent" once in awhile when I'm in need of a shoulder to cry on. Thank you all!
Peyton had a bit more nausea this time around. He and Charlie had tickets to the Broncos/Colts game on Sunday but didn't get to stay long because Peyton started feeling sick. They ended up leaving in the 1st quarter. By the time we started heading for home Peyton was complaining of a stomachache and he was looking really pale. He threw up twice, but again the anti-nausea medicine is great and works super fast. A bit of medicine, and a good nap on the drive home, and he was all better. He complained Monday of a stomachache, but he still wanted to go to preschool. Thankfully it's manageable with the medicine. He never wants to miss preschool! He's great today! He's off at school and having a fabulous day I'm sure! He has 2 more Friday treatments before he gets 2 weeks off. I can't believe October is right around the corner. He'll have an MRI on October 29th. Not sure what to expect....I do wonder if the chemo will already have made the tumors shrink or if it's too early to notice any changes. ? Guess we'll find out....
