SHE DID IT!
After six LONG weeks, my mother graduated from her first phase of treatment! #IWillTakeThisWin
The staff at the center were all so warm, welcoming, kind, and just down right AWESOME! In true me fashion, I had to do something special for them. Not quite Oprah, “You get a car! You get a car!” But it was the best way I know to bring joy to a group of people…Fannie May! I boxed up some mint meltaways and pixies for the radiologist (kindest Doc ever), and then the team of people that took the load off of this scary journey. I wasn’t able to go in, but my mom happily delivered the joy to the team and let‘s just say…yeah, there were tears. I welcome these tears, though, because they were those of joy, love, and happiness! #PraiseGod
I couldn’t do for the team and not the one who had to put on her big girl panties every day and walk inside there like the warrior she is…mom got her box of pixies too. And while she gave the, “ohhh, nooo,” it was said with the meaning of “I have been doing good eating and you go and sit my biggest weakness in front of my face and I don’t have to share…how dare you!” Haha! YEP! She deserves it! #WarriorsGetWhateverTheHellTheyWant
Next phase is the 4 week break. Good! Cuz everyone can use it! Then, there will be an MRI and chemo sprints. It will be 5 days of higher dose chemo and then 3 weeks of nothing. Rinse and repeat. I have no preconceived thoughts for how this will go. My mom has proven that she can take it…no matter what. We have God helping in this fight, so when the time comes…LEGGO! #AintNoFightTooBig
So, for right now, I am going to continue to praise Him as He brought us all through this journey with only minor scrapes and bruises. I have no doubt in my mind that the continued journey will be the same. AND, if it isn’t, He’s got us! #CoveredByTheManUpstairs #Grace #Mercy
Now, let me go treat my dog on self to a pixie! #Yep! #IGotSomeToo
