Here is the pic of the week and here is what you missed…*side note..this blog is a little short, im exhausted and going through some physical stuff with the new mix of poisons..
November 9 we were supposed to put down our cat but my daughter was having a very hard time with it so we decided to spend one more day with her.
November 10th
We got up first thing in the morning and went straight to the vet where we put down one of our kids. She was my daughters baby! We got spaz when my daughter was five, they grew up together. All i can say is I am grateful for my daughters strength because she held our cat until it was over as i feel a part in the corner of the room. This picture is was taken right after she passed and my daughter refused to let them take her away.
A big thanks to those of you who helped us get through this tough day!
November 11 we enjoyed the morning and afternoon hours with our veteran friends at the Veterans Day parade. Because we are part of the HOG family we also were a part of the parade. We then went out with a couple of the other members/veterans for a good meal at Applebee’s
November 12 I woke up with severe pain in my hands spine and legs but I was not shocked because I had been up for three days previously doing things that I probably shouldn’t have been doing! I overdid it!!
November 13 was a very rough day for me I spent most the day in bed. I hate feeling like i am trapped in a pill bottle. I wish my body would give me a break.
November 14 I took my chemo meds and spent the day on the couch watching TV and we ordered outback to go what a perfect day of being sick
November 15th I woke up with really bad hand pain but went to work. A girl has to make a living!
November 16 i woke with severe hand pain but lucky for me today was pain specialist day. I was cranky due to the pain i was experiencing and then the Rn, tech and Dr drove me batty asking the same questions…i could not get this pic out of my mind Ha!
November 17 18th and 19th or probably some of the worst days so far this month between starting a new medicine mix on top of chemo, being scared to do it and not having the support that I needed during this time was very hard for me. I’m very grateful that my nurse breezy helped me out with this, i hate feeling so vulnerable.
Colin the elf took care of my “sharps” Great job Colin safety first😊
November 20 I went straight to the gun range in the morning because I had to get out of bed and out of my head! I had a great time with my fellow coworkers and going #pewpewpew
This photo above is a little work/play pic
November 21 It felt so great Friday being able to shoot instead of work at the range, so Brian and i went back to the range and made a day of it.
Sunday the 22nd I woke up with a little bit of leg & upper back pain which the doctors believe is the new drug mix messing with my body and I just need to deal with it for now because we need to see if this drug can help. Whatever that means I’m so frustrated and I’m so tired of trying things. But i put on my big girl pantys and i went to work despite the pain. This place really helps keep me going I’m so grateful to work where i work! Even Colin the Elf loves Working @ the range!
Monday, November 23 I’m at work work work work work work… Now im home, walked the DOG and I caught you all up-to-date….so now I deserve some sleep and pain control as tomorrow is chemo day..Yuck!!!!!
Have a great week and I promise to keep everyone updated on the new mix of yucky meds. As usual thank you for your support it’s super hard living the life that I’ve been given but super thankful for my friends & readers!! A huge hug to all my new friends also suffering from either my disease or others like it. Hang in there and never give up! The sun is still shinning somewhere.
