Here's to one to go!!


You must know all the right wizards!

Another one down

I came out of treatment yesterday in a euphoric mood--knowing that in 14 days I would have my very last one!

I had a nice visit with Teri--she is recovering from hip surgery last week. You are always an inspiration Teri!

Thanks to my friends for providing tasty soups to keep me strong.

Thanks,
Sharon

Chemo--Round 7

Yes, I'm off to see the wizard...feeling anticipation with the end so close, rather than trepidation.

Yes I can!

Thanks,
Sharon

Yes You Can!

Wow, after Tuesday only one more treatment.  

I hardly know what to say other than, Yes You Can!

You amaze us...

Chemo--Round 6

I loved the lab puppy picture, Cindy. Yes, I have reached a milestone--three quarters of the way through! Now I truely feel like it is all downhill from here. Yesterday's treatment went better than the time before--by the time this is all over I will be a pro at what to bring to snack on, and what to bring for entertainment.

I still have friends and family providing nourishing broths and soups--which are delicious and so helpful. Wow, lucky me. I drove home from treatment with the temperature at 73 degrees--beautiful.

Brad is coming home this weekend--just to leave for snowboarding--so will see him on the run. Matt also has plans to go snowboarding with his friends. I guess they better go while there is still some snow at Tahoe.

Well, off to take care of my parents today. My Mom had surgery to remove a melnoma on her cheek last week, and is doing well. Then I go get my shot to boost white blood cells.

Love, Sharon

Feeling Tired of all This?

Good thing you only have TWO more treatments!  Congrats on this milestone.

Rest up and enjoy this beautiful weather (we ordered it special for you:-)

Aloha and Happy New Year

Teri the sunset is heavenly--thanks for sharing--one can dream! Marc and I took a drive out to the coast on New Year's Day--so we were at least looking at the same water.

I have been taking care of Matt, he had his wisdom teeth taken out on Monday. He has been an easy patient--so we are getting along well.

I am getting a bit anxious to have these treatments behind me. I'm more than ready to have my taste buds back and see some hair growing. My patience is waning, as I can see the finish line just beyond my reach. I have to remember, every day I get closer to that goal.

It is birthday week for Kathy B. and my cousing Melanie--enjoy!

Love,
Sharon

Aloha


So Sharon ... a week later and I am wondering how you are doing. I hope all is well. I have refrained this trip from taking pictures of breasts either of statues (re: September's pictures) or living men/women. Instead - I provide you with the view from my room with this evening's sunset taken with the phone camera. This is to serve as enticement for next year :-)

Wishing you all well ...
