We had a wonderful evening with my team last night at Perlas. Chef Michael took very good care of us and the food was amazing. We ate just about everything fabulous that comes from the sea. What a nice treat to keep my mind off of today.
Lab results came in and all my numbers are fantastic (Normal). That means I get to fight the battle today with a full dose of chemo. We arrived at 7:45 this morning to meet with Dr. Hellerstadt and discuss my Pet scan and lab work in great detail.
We are now in the infusion wing fighting the fight in my Longhorn attire. My nurse, Kelley is wonderful and
very cheerful. My medical team has been fantastic. We have met a few characters on my wing and we are looking forward to following their progress. Its like a day at the spa except the wine is given intravenously and its call larazopan. hahaha I just had a wonderful foot massage,homemade snicker-doodle cookies delivered by a volunteer, lunch from Panera and am ready for a big nap. Anti nausea meds make you sleepy.
What a great nap!!! Stacy and Paul helped me this morning, Alex is on his way from class and Lisa will bring me home around five. A friend from my wonderful support group is bringing us a yummy Chicken Pecatta dinner tonight.
Thank you so much to my family,friends and love ones. It is with your support and my faith that we will all
beat this thing by 2015!!
By the way, Pancreatic Cancer has a color too and it's PURPLE! Which happens to be my favorite color for years. Last night Paul insisted I go into the Kendra Scott store next to the restaurant to choose a pair of earrings in purple. I resisted for a while, but he wore me down, :) Also, thanks to my sweet niece Lindsay Cathcart, I will have a "stay calm and sing soft kitty" shirt in PURPLE! :) My next treatment day, probably June 24, my birthday, we will all wear our purple. Come guys, you know you can do it. Be secure.
Love, Cindy
