New Chemo schedule

Well I went to see Dr. Foote today and she decided that we needed to revisit the Taxol treatment!!  I didn't really like that fact that I would be getting treated once a week for 12 weeks but figured that that was the treatment that she wanted to do so I needed to get on bored with the schedule.  Well she told me today that she wants to change to once every 2 weeks which I like MUCH better.  I will have to go through 4 cycles every 2 weeks.  I can do anything 4 times so I prefer this treatment plan much better!!  I would really like to ask for specifi prayers during this treatment.  Please pray for quick recovery, no neuropathy, and no allergic reaction!!  This chemo has a high rate of allergic reactions so I will be given lots of drugs prior to treatment.  Starting Sunday I have to take Decadron 2 pills in the morn 2 pills in the evening. Then Monday is treatment day and I will be given Decadron 2 pills in morn and 2 at night and before the treatment gets started I will be given and injection of Decadron, Aloxi (med for stomach), and bendadry.  Then on Tuesday more Decadron in the morn and night.  Thats a lot of medicine to have to take but thats ok as long as it works and I am able to get treated thats all that matters!

There is also a shrimp feast at the Legion in Lewes for my benefit this Saturday at 4-8!!!  Now I know you can't make every benefit for me but i just wanted to keep all of you updated on what's going on!  Thanks to all that came to Bingo on Friday night!!  I believe everyone had a fantastic time and I saw the prizes and they were FANTASTIC!!!  Praise God that it was really a success!!! 

Well today before my doctors appointment I got to hang out with my friend and really had a great time!!  I just want to thank God for giving me a friend that really makes me feel comfortable!!!  Who just loves me for who I am and loves just hanging out and talking about all God does for us and how He loves us!!! 

Thank you all for your prayers and may God bless each one of you in this new year!!
