Hello everyone,
This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
I had my fourth round of AC chemo on Friday and my Neulasta shot on Saturday. I thank God almighty that I have not had many complications from this. I get tired by the 4th day after treatments but I have never had any nausea or vomiting. I did have diarrhea after the first two treatments when I was on the clinical trial for Avasttin but now I only have constipation since being off the trial. I have not lost any weight. Even though food does not taste good, I make myself eat and drink plenty. I start 12 weeks of Taxol in two weeks and then 6-1/2 weeks of radiation after that. I have been able to work during all of this because I work at home. I am still able to function on my low days but I just move a little slower. There has not been anything that I have not been able to do since going through treatments. I still go to church and continue to give God the praise because I know that when praises go up, blessings come down. I know that by his stripes I am healed and I will have the victory over this beast called cancer.
I encourage you my sisters and brothers to speak positively at all times. Do not let the devil steal your joy. Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.
God bless you all and may heaven smile upon you.
Virginia
