I had an appointment at my oncologist’s, PT, and a cancer support meeting. My counts looked decent. They continue to stay about the same – steady. I was glad to see that my platelets were above 100. PT went well, but as usual is exhausting. Let’s see… I made a quick trip to Michael’s. I managed to fold and put away laundry. I also made dinner. Then, I went to my cancer support meeting, which is the 1st Tuesday of every month. I enjoy going to the meetings. Everyone is really nice and positive. It’s uplifting to know that you’re not alone and nice to know that other people have shared similar experiences. People there really listen and allow you to express how you feel without judgment. I met someone who had a BMT; we talked after. He got his own cells and got to go home in days, but he did have to stay home. He didn’t have to leave home like me, but we discussed side effects and had several of the same ones. Different cancers. His was multiple melanoma, I think.
Currently, I’m waiting for my bone marrow biopsy results. I believe they will be good and I really do not feel any doubt regarding it. I think it’s the first time. I really do feel at peace.
Thank you for all your continued prayers. On Friday, I’m driving to Orlando to meet up with Andi and have a Girls Weekend. I’m super excited. I’ve never done anything like this before. I do feel a little guilty, but I keep telling myself that I’ve definitely earned a vacation. I rarely drive long distances, so I ask that you pray for me – that I will be safe.
