Good News!

Wow! A lot has occurred since I last updated my blog.

My doctor put me on a new chemotherapy drug called Cisplatin. OMG! It caused severe nausea and neuropathy. After, two treatments my doctor decided to stop giving me drug.

I have also returned to work. Yea! This is my third week back and I am so excited to be back amongst my supportive co-workers and rambunctious 7th and 8th grade students. I’m also geeked about finally being able to get out the house on a regular basis.

I’ve also started an aqua aerobics class to try to get back into shape. For those of you who haven’t seen me, the chemo drugs caused me to pack on quite a few pounds.

Finally, here’s my big news….I am officially done with chemo. Hallelujah! I had my port removed last Friday, and I begin radiation on Monday. Thank you all so much for your prayers and continued support. I will continue to keep you posted on my progress.
