Round 2 is over!

Today was the "unplug" day for round 2 of chemotherapy. The other good thing is only 3 more days of radiation. I still am pretty lucky with the side effect gremlins doing battle. I am winning most battles and losing only a few by slim margins. I talk to others and feel very fortunate. Oh, I am sick and it is very frustrating, but each day, my "care giver extraordinaire" (that's Cindy of course), a host of good and loving visitors and helpers, warm reassuring emails and comments, and tremendous uplifting cards give me all that I need to go day by day till the end of this. Thank you all. Thanks Ken and Vicky, Dennis and Robin, and Valerie and Laura, Miguel, and Sarah, and Carrie. Each day I'm reminded of so many who have it worse than me. Each day I'm reminded of how lucky I am. Each day I thank God for my blessings. Each day I forget to thank Cindy. The one person who doesn't have a choice here. And who just keeps trying to figure out what comes next for us. The next time you see her, please give her a hug! I love her! I am blessed having her, I love all of you, God bless you all!
