"Here We Go Again!"

As I head out the door this morning, I have that feeling as if I'm forgetting something. You know it...we all have it from time to time. I look in the rearview mirror in the car and can see I have my wig on, my tooth in and touch my right side to feel my bra padding. Alright, everything is present and accounted for! Walking into work, I reach for my cell phone, and there it "isn't!" Of all the items listed above, I was glad to know that the one missing was my cell phone! Another feeling I've been having is similar to one's first day at school, a big knot in my stomach, dreading the event, but wishing to hurry up and get it over with, my second chemo treatment. I have two days left to accumulate more anxiety. How wonderful it has felt to just be out of a doctor's office for the past 3 weeks. It was almost like being "normal" again. I have refilled my pill dispenser up with the necessary meds. I begin tomorrow taking my steroid meds, which is suppose to make me "hyper" and as I have learned...make me eat too much as well! The water drinking also begins tomorrow and escalates the day of and day after chemo. I must say, I am not looking forward to that. My first treatment was "do-able" I just hope this one follows suit. I am a little uneasy about the white blood cell injection that I will have to return for on Thursday, but know that with God's help, I'll make it through. I covet each and everyone of your prayers. Please lift me up on Wednesday and Thursday especially...love to you all!
