last week my chemo treatments were delayed again. my platelet count was still not up to par. i am getting so tired of dragging this out. i want it to be over! i may talk with my doctor about stopping the treatments early. i honestly don't see what good a couple more treatments are going to do. i think if there were any cancer cells in my body that they would have been killed by now. i mean i had less treatments before i had surgery to remove the tumor and it killed 98% of the cancer cells. i go back to the doctor again on thurs. hopefully no more delays.
on another note, our air conditioner's blower motor burned out. i panicked and immediately thought of the worst. i thought it would cost several hundred dollars and a few days to fix. but my dad came to the rescue! he was able to get a new blower motor at the wholesale cost of $50 and replace it within several hours. i am so thankful on a day when the heat index is near 100 degrees.

sorry for the long delay between posts. i guess you could say that i've been busy and lazy. i had a great birthday and 4th of july weekend. i think we saw more fireworks than we have ever seen. i have been feeling pretty good recently. my outpatient chemo got delayed last week because my platelet count was too low. this sets me back another week. so it looks like i'll be done with the chemo in mid august now. i have been having quite a bit of stiffness in my leg lately. i have been trying to exercise it some, but i really need some physical therapy to get it strong. that's about all for now. i'll try to post again soon. i have outpatient chemo on thursday and friday of this week, so i'll let you know how it goes...
