Taking strides...

Today was a great day. I felt really good. The only thing I would have changed was my sister and niece leaving this morning. The sun was out and it did great things from my spirits and soul.

 We got outside and I actually walked (with my crutches of course!) a little over a mile at the park. It felt really good to move around on my own for so long. I am really hopeful that we will be officially out of the wheelchair in two weeks! Having the sun on my face while walking was icing on the cake.

I also made greek patties and salad again, but made it right this time for my friend Becca. She came for a visit, and we got all caught up. It does remind me that although my life is playing on super slow mode, everyone else is living life at normal pace. I am kind of enjoying the slow pace at the moment, of course I feel well now so it is easy to enjoy it now.

I have some very important mile stones coming up. This time next week, I will be suffering whatever effects I will be feeling from chemo number four. No matter how many chemos I have, I know that this will be at least halfway through this...journey. In two weeks, I meet with my bone doctor to rid myself from my wheelchair. In about three weeks, I have my PET scan to see how many chemos I will have.

I am going to spend the next few days just enjoying feeling well and not worry about chemo next week. I don't want to start dreading it already. It puts a little dark cloud over my sunny day when I start to dread it.
