The past few days I haven't felt really good, I was extremely tired so I didn't blog. Although my lab tests came back looking great, I guess I needed some extra sleep and so that's what I've been doing. I apologize if any of you were worried that you hadn't heard from me in awhile. Everything is good, still trucking along.
Today I went to chemo #17 and invited my good friend Teresa Rose (aka my Weight Watcher's Leader). It felt so good to have alone time with Teresa, she's such a wonderful person. Teresa works really hard and has such a busy schedule @ home and work, that I felt so privileged to just have her attention for the couple hours that I did. She literally teaches 11 Weight Watcher meetings a week, plus has guest appearances on Good Day Sacramento all the time. So for her to take the time for me, felt so good. It was funny because Monica (the Pharmacist) walked by at one point and ended up spending a great deal of time getting great advice from Teresa about the program. She's amazing.
Sonia Susac also joined us this afternoon after she was finishing up some of her things on her list. She's also an incredibly busy lady who I want to thank for always being by my side. Sonia is the leader of a group walking in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure @ Cal Expo on May 8th. I'm part of Sonia's group (the RAC-PAC) and plan to walk as far as I can. I know I won't be able to make the 5K, however, there's a smaller race for those who need it and it's 1 mile. Hopefully I can manage that. Anyway, Sonia is very busy with the planning and organization of this group and she deserves MAJOR kudos for all the fundraising efforts and work that she puts in on a daily basis for breast cancer awareness. Throughout all of this I'm blessed to have found a wonderful friend in Sonia.
During my treatment we realized that I'm again taking Benadryl and require a ride home...oops. So we worked it out with Teresa driving me home, followed by Sonia driving my van. Then Teresa took Sonia back to her car. What ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL friends I have. Without them, I don't know what I would do.
Thank you Teresa and Sonia ~ I love you guys lots!
Peace to you all ♥ Love, Genie
