Well, it's been one week since the chemo and I'm still cruising along. Last day for the prednisone was Wednesday - maybe there is still some floating around in the system. That's amazing stuff, all your little aches and pains go away, you have lots of energy (and appetite!!) and you feel good. That being said, support from friends and family seems even more vital - their love keeps your spirits up and your attitude positive. I'm feeling better than I have in months. I've also found that overloading my day with activities makes me a lot happier - I have too much to do to sit around and mope!
Ben has started my garden, since I can't play in the mud he is helping out. We're also planting a butterfly garden in a corner of the yard, we bought some native plants which are supposed to attract butterflies - pictures to come later in the summer. Since photographing butterflies is one of my hobbies, I'm hoping to get some shots right here at home.
We're going up to the Poconos this weekend - I can't fish due to possible contact with micro-organisms - but I'll go with Ben Saturday and friends Sunday, as long as I'm outside I'll be happy. Ben and Emma are coming too, maybe some pix of that too.
