Oh man, I thought I was a goner there for awhile! I can't tell you how good it feels to feel good again! I wasn't sure if I was ever going to feel good again. I sure was one cranky, miserable, angry, whiney, irritable, mopey, witchy woman for awhile there! I apologize to everyone who came across my path in the last few days. My poor mom, hubby, kids and pets. I was not myself and I am sorry. Thank you for being patient with me and standing by me. I know I wasn't that bad even during childbirth.
Today I woke up not feeling so hot, but hubby popped me full of 2 vicadin and I went back to sleep. When I awoke around 11ish, all was well with the world again. I had energy. The nausea was gone. The pain. The agony. The uncomfortableness. Not completely gone, but moving in that direction. Only a fogginess remained. It snowed today. I took the dog for a walk. I played fetch with the dog. I vaccuumed. I did laundry. I cooked dinner. I did the dishes. Emptied the dishwasher. I tidied up. I helped my son with his homework and a bunch of projects. I helped my daughter make a gameboard. I had my hubby put the lights on our tree and set up our new solar lights up on our walkway. I rearranged my family room. LOL I even rearranged part of the garage and swept the leaves out! Oh, and I cleaned out my car! Can I tell you how good it feels to do those things? I loved it! It was one of those days that I didn't complain about them one bit! I even cleaned both my kids rooms - tidying, dusting and vaccuuming! Happily!!!! I paid bills. It was a good day. I want more days like that. It's nice to know that after the darkness comes light, eventually. I really wasn't sure for awhile. Oh to feel alive and normal again. Bliss.

Alleluia, sister!!! Made my day to hear that you were feeling better!!! Wooooo Hooooo!!!! Can't wait to hear your version of the wig adventure ;) Love, p
So happy to hear that you are feeling better.
Shauna - You are an amazing woman and you have such a supportive family. I look forward to walking the survivor lap with you this year at relay. You can beat this too! Love Jill
Shauna: I couldn't read your blog yesterday since we weren't home. Sorry to hear you had a rough couple of days. I bet you will feel great now until after your next treatment, which won't be for a while. I think if you only have a couple of tough days, you are going to do fine with your chemo. Can you imagine being sick the entire time?! I am anxious to hear about your wig. Hope you found one you really like. Hang in there. You are doing awesome. I am so proud of you. I am glad you are my friend. Love, JO
Sorry to hear those couple of days were so rough, but glad that yesterday was so much better. Will tune in tomorrow to hear of your adventure at the wig store.
