Thank you for visiting my blog. I wanted to create it so that all the people close to me can check in to see what happening in my treatment, and how I'm doing. This doesn't mean that I don't want to hear from you. Please feel free to call, email, text any time. But I apologize if I don't always get back to you. This new cancer journey of mine is a full time job, and I'm doing the best that I can. Please know that your thoughts and prayers mean so much to me...keep them coming! Thank you for all your help and support too...it takes a community, and you have all given us that.
With love and gratitude,
Lynne

Monday I saw my doctor. It's good news...I am still responding well to the treatment. So she still wants to give me some more chemo. We'll do 2 more rounds, and then more scans to see. The idea is to get as much mileage out of this chemo as possible. It's hard not knowing the plan... I'm still working on going with the flow!!!
However, my infection hasn't gone away yet. I ended up having my port removed on Monday, which is great...it's been a problem for three months! But I'm back on antibiotics, and I was back at the ER again, because it started bleeding. I hope it's on the mend now!!!!
My chemo was also delayed as a result...so I'm now scheduled for July 2nd, and 25th. Sucks that it runs into our very short and precious summer, but what can I do?! I'm hoping to still get in some cottage visits in August.
The kids are home now, enjoying pyjama mornings, playdates and movies. So happy the summer's here!

    Lynne my dear friend,

    You have been so strong throughout this entire ordeal..you truely are an amazing woman! But I knew that way back in kindergarden when we first met! I remember that day we had to fight what seemed like hurricane winds to make our way home when school was cancelled.. We held hands and I believe you were pulling me .. Even back then you kicked butt!! :-)

    Time passes so fast and now we have little ones of our own. Your baby just turned 8 and mine just finished kindergarden. I can't believe we are actually in our mid forties!! When did this happen?

    I hope to make it to T.O. sometime in August during my vacation so I will let you know as soon as I know. I really would love to spend some time with you and the family. As always, if ever you feel up to it you are more than welcome to come and stay here in Mtl.

    Love you tons & think of you all the time!
    Xx
