My sister left this morning at 4am to head to New Mexico because classes will be starting soon. My mother also went along. She won’t be back until Saturday night at around 12:30am.
I luckily woke up at around 7:30 this morning and felt like a brand new person. Although I’m stuck at the last few steps in my journey to God I think he renewed my strength. It was the most wonderful feeling. It felt like I was cleansed of all evil but only had an inkling in the back of my mind the tumor was there. It wasn’t strong enough to break the calm happiness of it. I still haven’t touched that stupid bump because I don’t want to ruin this energy I’ve had.
For the first time EVER yesterday I went into the hospital feeling like garbage and came out feeling fantastic. I decided to take another week of chemo off which was fine by the doctors and get my Calcium level back down; in which they infused me with 4grams of Mag. It’s really an on going battle with it each day. I’ve been taking magnesium pills to combat the levels so they are normal. If I don’t I get horrible fatigue and shortness of breath even when I walk down the stairs or get in the shower.
I’d rather not think of what all these imbalances and me re-balancing it is doing to my heart because that’s a tad scary for me to research at the moment.
This probably won’t stop until this tumor shrinks or disappears what ever it may do because it’s putting out more calcium then a whole dairy farm full of cows.
Anyways, I must go now use up my new energy on a few simple chores and enjoy the house to myself for the next few days.
Little taste of Theodore for the day. Yes his shirt does say “Sexy” in rhinestones. This is the initial look he gave me and has yet to come back downstairs.

Thanks for your support -
A week to yourself? When’s the crazy party? Any news from the Boston doc? Enjoy your time to yourself! I always enjoy the peace and quiet. Snuggle up with your pup and just breathe.
Not sure but looks like Theodore has already started to party and looks a little hungover to me. Guess he’w waiting for the next group to arrive. Hope you enjoy your free time. sometimes its really nice to have a place to yourself where you can feel free with your feelings. Hope you hear from Boston and news is positive. Weezie
My hubby and I are in 27 foot trailer and some times I feel that it is to small. I love him a lot. But some times you need to have some time for your self.
Happy day.
