Another delay...

Treatment #9 has been delayed. My platelets dropped from 81 to 44 - my lowest level so far. Thankfully the rest of my labs are adequate. The plan is to wait a week, recheck my labs, and hopefully proceed with #9. It throws my schedule off but I can deal with that. I believe with everything there is a silver lining, so I'll enjoy the week by trying to rest and let my body heal. I am not feeling too bad. Fatigue and occasional nausea are the major issues, but hey who doesn't love a good nap!

We have enjoyed some quality family time and a little culture. We went to Logan to see "Man of La Mancha," and "The Little Mermaid" at the Hale Center Theater. Both were excellent and quite different. I think I like "The Little Mermaid" the best. We've been picking blackberries from our garden and I think we have enough to make a batch of jam (with Devon's help).

So life is good. I know this will pass, but have to admit it was discouraging to have the delay. So please keep your fingers crossed and prayers coming that next Wednesday I'll be well enough to proceed. Then I'll only have 3 more to go...YIPPEE!
