Day Before Chemo #2

I know some of you check everyday for an update, so here I am. I'm still having good days. My cold is gone and I feel good. I'm shedding more and more each day and my hair is no longer "POOFY" as I once referred to it as. It's getting thin, but thank God I have tons of hair because you can barely tell that I'm balding. The hair near my temples are very thin now and you can now see through it. Christina must have jinxed me! :P

I've been working the past couple days from home just to exercise my brain and to be somewhat productive. I've read all I can read about breast cancer, chemotherapy, radiation and nutrition that I need to do other things with my time now.

Tomorrow I'm scheduled for chemo cycle #2. They will check my blood again and will postpone it if my white blood cell count remains low (Neutrophils under 1.5....I was at 0.45 prior to the shot). I'm almost certain the shot they gave me last week did its job though and has been the reason why I've recovered from that cold. Tomorrow my stepmother has volunteered to be my chemo buddy.

So today I'm going to enjoy the day, just because I can. If tomorrow's chemo is going to be the same as my first cycle then tomorrow I plan to very nauseated.

I'll keep the blog up-to-date if I can. It's raining out today, but to me it's a sunny day! ;)
