Hope that chemo goes well tomorrow! I will be sending warm thoughts your way!
I hope you are not as cranky as Miss Daisy was!!! If so, you may be thumbing it to chemo! Ha!!!
Sounds like you are acquiring a cool pink wardrobe!!!
Sleep well my friend!
Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."

Can't believe I Am blogging- I don't even do Facebook! Had a good day today- my nose bleeds stopped- only to start up again tomorrow when I go for more chemo.....but then after tomorrow- Fri. I am off Chemo the following week!
Linda is "Driving Miss Daisy" once again taking me to chemo. She is now the b/c fashionista and is finding all kinds of t-shirts & sweatshirts. I ordered the "Save the TaTa's" sweatshirt and it came today. With this nasty cold weather- I will need it! Tom- my bro-in-law is taking off work tomorrow to be with Kaleigh and Sam so Linda can take me to chemo. The meds they give me make me very drowsy- and I don't even remember driving home. Hope I don't get Nurse Ratchett again- Linda might punch her out!
Bertha for my wigs' name?????Are you mad at me?

Hey all!
I need help in naming my new cranial prothesis (wig).....Gladys is my old wig and she is kinda worn out....plus she was a PITA because the wig is human hair and alot of work. So Denise and I went shopping and found a new wig- which is on order. She is short and sassy and synthetic- easy to style. Any ideas? I thought of Bernice- but Denise thinks it is too old fashioned.
I still have my own hair....for now.
Finally feeling better today- went to work and I still have some energy left! I received some beautiful flowers from Papa Joe and Grandma Rose who live in Michigan. Joe and Rose are Thom Schmidt's parents and they kinda adopted Tyler as a grandson.
Looking forward to spending the day with Tyler who is back from DC. Hoping we can go to a movie and out to lunch tomorrow (Th). The Friday is THFM Day.

Julie was able to make a posting....how did she do this? I would love to hear from others.

This is very cool!
I think this is awesome to have a place to post thoughts about your journey Helene--for you and for all your friends. We are suffering, praying, laughing, and crying with you. I hope you are recovering well from the last chemo treatment and are able to participate in daily routines as much of possible. That's the key isn't it? To try and function while the poison does it's thing-kill that cancer! I love you and I will keep praying for you!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!
Helene was able to post today! I am so excited that it worked! For those of you who have never created a blog, it was challenging for me! I am in no way techy at all, but am glad she was able to post and let us know how she was doing!

This was my daily bible verse that comes via email everyday! Wow, talk about hitting home! Helene, I hope that you trust in the Lord, for He will take care of you!!!

Will this work?
I don't know if this is going to work.......I think I am blogging....will it work??? Ha! Helene the Techno Queen!
Had a fun time at Bunco Fri.- had a nap before I went and was chauffered home by 10 pm. Had some laughs and forgot my troubles for awhile. I am missing my 6 foot tall baby- as he is in DC. Sure is quiet without him around. Sunday I went shopping with my neice Kaleigh to the mall- after we had lunch at Steak and Shake. (She talked me into ordereing a milk shake- it was all her fault!) Sunday night was rough- felt the effects of the chemo. We were fortunate last night in having friends bring over dinner- with enough for another meal. I am trying to get in to Rush Cancer Center for a 2nd opinion- just to make sure I am on the right track for treatment. Hopefully they can get me in around the chemo treatments.
Let's see if this is going to post-
