Final day!!!

This is treatment # 33, woo hoo! I saw the oncologyst for the final time on Monday, and he gave me a few more perscriptions as my neck could open up and I need to be soaking it with a solution to help. I'ts itchy. I took a few photo's this morning.

I am going to visit my nephews after my final 3pm appt and I think tomorrow I can actually sleep in.....I am so very tired and up so early every day. poor me right.

I thank everyone in their support, e-mails and comments. i read them all and appreciate each one.

I can't believe it's done!

I suppose I can't say remission until the doctors go back down to make sure it all worked, but I have faith.

Cheers!

4 more to go!

I only have 4 more to go and I am happy about that! I got a cold about two weeks ago and since then my voice is going. This weekend I could barely speak and the past few weeks were not quite as bad but the same. (sorry for not calling anyone, it's really hard to hear me) but it's better today. I am sitting here talking to myself.....and I can hear what I am saying :). it's still horse though. Dr said that will heal itself in time.

I wanted to mention for anyone who was taking any of the information I gave on driking coconut water. The company ONE who in the beginning of my treatment said they would be sending me 6 month supply of the water for free actually only sent me one box and it cost me 34 bucks in brokerage fee! Saved me 10 bucks I guess but they never sent me anymore. So I found a cheaper way to get it. If you buy the actual coconut from the store, we have all seen them I am sure, and you save 1.00 at least per glass. Just a suggestion if anyone else has fallen in love with the stuff but find it sooo expensive!

We am all moved in, not settled as there is still a few things to be done but the place looks fantastic! i will post some pics when I find my camera!

Cheers,

Kim

Funky nose

I look funny.

7 more to go.....I am still getting over my cold, stuffy nose, sore dry throat and a red and itchy neck. I saw the doctor on monday, and he reaffirmed that nobody will be looking back down my throat until mid December. Guess it will be the best or worst Christmas ever!

I am tired, but being very strong and moving over the next few days. I will post pics of the new place once we are settled.

Thanksgiving

Anthony, Gavin and Riley months and months ago....

Gavin, Riley, Anthony and Evan

So, it's over now...almost. The Thanksgiving weekend brought John's brother, wife and nephew to town. I was not able to get a photo to match the one of them when they were only a few months old but here they are now!

I am tired today and my neck hurts. Good night.

More pictures

So, now that i have figured out this whole picture thing, I took some today. This is a typical day for me these days....

And for those of you who forget.....here is what I look like! It's tough to see just how red my throat actually is, but it is like a REALLY bad sun burn, with no peel!

Weekend babysitting

treatment 16 of 33

today is so close to halfway. I really have nothing new to report, my neck is getting pretty red and sore, my throat is really dry and sore, and i get tired pretty quick.

I am trying to download pictures and i can't. I hate this blog. you can try to go to the on-line album....http://kim-thomas.magix.net and view under babysitting. if it does not work, let me know.

I go to my appt today at 1:10 and see the oncologyst after....hopefully he has the answers from my questions last week.
