Hi all!
I received my latest chemo last Tuesday and have just begun to feel like myself again.
That was the second dose three weeks apart, and my hair is mostly gone. I was just beginning to feel like it had a little style, too!
I will be getting 3 more doses of the adriamycin, each 3 weeks apart. My next one is scheduled for 8/3. I will also get Melphalan which will be harsher on my immune system. I will need to avoid big crowds and sick people.(Again!)
Aside from that, I am officially retired from the Health Dept as of July 1st. This coming Thursday the staff has invited me back for a farewell reception. This has been the most caring group of people I have worked with. In addition to cards and flowers and prayers, this group donated almost 10 weeks of leave time so I could continue to get paid. I am overwhelmed with the generosity and kindness that has been shown to me. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart! I wish their was someway to repay you. Please know that I will remember you all with much gratitude!
Tom promises to update 'The Shore Thing' blog including lots of pictures, this week, so stay tuned...
Til next time. :-) Bets
