Good news on Thursday that the blood tests show that this chemo seems to be working (the days of extreme fatigue have been worth it) Other good news is that I will on a 6 week on 2 week off routine for chemo so next week will be number 6 and then I get two weeks off. Yahoo!! On Friday Glenda took me for my chemo and as I sat in the chemo seat I noticed that once again the IV pole was one of the few that had a pink glass angel hanging on it. I never sit in the same seat and and yet I always seem to have an angel on my pole. I mentioned this to Glenda and the nurse. The nurse said the poles are moved around all the time so it is just chance that I got an Angel pole. Glenda said she was not surprised because so many people were surrounding me with Angels. When I got home I opened my email and the first one I read was from my dear friend Peggy. I got a lump in my throat and goosebumps as I read that she and her husband had prayed for me to be surrounded by Angels that day. I am so blessed.
Today Graham and I had an awesome day. We went to the Alpine meadows at Manning Park for a picnic. The alpine flowers were in full bloom and were spectacular. It was a magical special day with lots of those "special holy moments" that you want to keep the picture in your mind forever. Sitting eating our picnic at the top of the mountain with the flowers all around us. Watching a beautiful deer at the side of the road. Then later sitting an the tailgate of the truck sharing a piece of tiramazu cake. Yes, my appetite is good today.
Thanks to everyone again for all your prayers and positive thoughts and of course all the red dots on the map.
