Last Tuesday my Radiologist doctor told me I could begin going off of the stteroids. Yeah! They have left me feeling pretty hopped up, but the good news is the house is looking pretty clean and I think every piece of mail that could be filed is in it's place at the moment. My nurse warned me that I would probably take a pretty hard crash, but at least it would be in a clean house! We both laughed. I was aware of this because I knew a body just can't keep going like this. I'm so looking forward to just being my normal busy self. The honest rest is sounding really good too. I'm trying my best to rest and really have to concentrate on it, even with sleeping pills.
Radiation and oral chemo therapy seem to be going well. It is a privilege to continue working half time through this and living normal family life as much as we can. My mom has really helped out with the kids on the half days and they love being with grandma and grandpa.
We have student conferences right now. During this time I just worked the conferences. I really missed teaching, but that will come next week with the schedule back to normal. It will be all of us off to school in the morning and daddy off to work. Then I leave at 11:10 to begin the radiation and chemo treatment schedule. We run to Wenatchee and come home quickly so Bryce and Alyssa can just walk home from school like normal. We are blessed to have such a great hospital that works so closely with us. They really care about the needs of our kids and family life. We appreciate that greatly.
Thank you for continuing to pray with us and looking up.
