Not my week!
Not the best week here. I first called to set up my PET scan and soon got news I was not happy with. I found out that when Dr. Davidner had said 3 treatments and then scan he had meant 3 rounds of treatments. 9 full weeks not the 3 weeks like I had thought. I guess that was wishful thinking on my part! I will do whatever it takes and make the best of it but I do have to admit I was a bit disappointed. My friend Sarah and I head out to treatment on Thursday, I have my blood drawn, get weighed, blood pressure taken, and go sit in my recliner, get my self wrapped in my blankets, all the fun weekly tasks. Then we wait and wait and wait. I'm beginning to think ok people what's going on here. Finally the nurse comes to let me know Dr. Davidner has decided my white blood count is too low for treatment that day. She tells me I need to take it easy for a week and stay away from big crowds. Or places that large amounts of people go. I think how weird I feel great. I guess I'm taking it as a blessing a week without chemo equals a week without side effects. And so today Ava and I kicked off our week of relaxation by staying in our jammies all day and watching movies. Doesn't sound to bad does it! We continue to pray for good health here at the Berls house and ask that you do the same. Thank you for all the support!
