How's it going? Well, great now! I had a little reaction to the first chemo. Dec. 21st. It gave me the Rigors. Basically, I froze and shook uncontrollably for about 30 minutes. They got it all under control. That shouldn't happen again since they are going to give me the chemo after Benadryl and steroids, that should stop any negative reaction. The next day I was given a Nulasta shot, it builds up my white blood cell count. Ok, that can make your legs sore for a few days!
The good news is I'm back to normal now and so thankful. I even still have my hair at this point! I thought I'd be going back to school bald (with my wig of course!)
We go in for chemo on the 11th again this month.
Over all we loved Christmas Break. Family time, and time with friends was precious. The most exciting thing was watching the kids learn to ski. Brett and I are so proud of them! They zip up the rope tows and down the hill over and over. As of yesterday they are both using the Palma too.
We had lots of fun in the midst of everything. This journey continues to strengthen our faith in a God who heals...sometimes it takes a little time. Thanks for praying with us.
God bless!
Looking up,
Sheri

Our prayers will keep coming your way! Glad to hear there have been some joys along with the challenges over break. Congrats to your kids - that is awesome!
I asked my friends for a pray-a-thon. We will be on our knees until you are cured. Stay strong and keep looking up!
Sheri-I think of you everyday on my way to teach my kindergartener's! My prayers and love are with you and your family.
