Chemo 4 of 6



Sweet Do Rag from my friend Amy!



Next chemo is May 2, then #6 is May 23rd. I'll be getting another PET/CT scan and my Oncologist will decide if it's more chemo or moving on to radiation. May I request prayers for moving on???!!!

Just so you know how healthy I really look with make up and wig. I still have eyebrows and lashes!! woohoo

We have a visit to the Museum planned to see the works of William Morris~Native Species (glasswork) then some lunch at one of our fave restaraunts.
I'll have to come home & rest up for the Pizza & Birthday Pie Party at home later this evening.
Two grandsons are coming for the night. I hope gramma Deena is up to their shenanigans. I know I'm up for the loving & snuggles.
I'll have my wigwam on in a bit & I'll try to get better lighting for a good picture.

Orange Mint & Honey


Rich and I went to Borders a bit ago so I could get the book




they didn't have it so I ordered it

I am so enjoying it.


After I am done & my BFF Marcia reads it

I'll be posting again to send it on to another reader, so if, it's on your list & you can wait hold off buying it & it will be a "Pay It Forward"

you read it then offer it on your blog..

but it will be a bit.

I'm hooked!!




I watched American Idol last week for the first time since Clay Aiken and Ruben Stoddard were the top two. That's YEARS!




I even asked hubby to cook my supper for me so I could watch American Idol. Tis so not me!!! but I am so hooked.


I LOVE David Cook!! He has a great voice and the look of a star


I also adore David Archuleta, so young (17) and such a great voice!!


Michael Johns is awesome too.


Jason Castro rocks too & he's more than handsome.






Itunes has the videos.










I was so disappointed this week as everyone had to sing a Dolly Parton song. I don't mean to


offend any Dolly fans, but GOSH ..ok you get it..I'm not a fan of very many female singers.






I went to Dr. Mammolito today for a follow up. She made me feel
so much better. I told her, I don't feel like Deena anymore. She told
me I will again someday soon & I believe her. I asked her about the
report on my Pet/CT scan as I'd not see her since I got it..


She said, "I think it's good you're getting chemo"






We talked about when chemo would be done, when radiation starts


& if I needed something for depression.


YES ..Spring would be great!!




She didn't know I was wearing a wig!!


woohoo
She also gave me a prescription for a compression sleeve to use when
I'm using my arm. I have to go & be fitted for it. It should be good for PC work.








After that I got some glue & paper for crafting, it was good to be out


but I still feel so uncomfortable in my wigwam..teeehee




I came home to a LOVELY package of bath goodies from Kathee


it so raised my spirits and EVERYTHING was blue & brown, even the hot cocoa pack


is lovely


Thank you Kathee dear.
