Good news and another delay
I had a chest CT this week and found out that the "mass" found in my lung a couple of months ago has decreased in size - very good news. It confirms that it most likely is not cancer but rather scar tissue caused by the pulmonary blood clot after my first treatment. Also good news is that my hair is growing in. It's about 1/2 to 1 inch all over my head. Most of the time I don't even cover my head anymore. A few weeks ago a cute little girl in Costco told me I didn't have any hair, but that's changing.
But, once again my treatment was delayed another week due to low platelets. They are up to 61, but it's not enough to proceed with a regular dose of chemo. So the decision was made to wait another week. I'll be back on schedule next Tuesday...hopefully. The good part about no chemo is that I feel so good. I've been riding my bike and enjoying the beautiful weather.
I think not having chemo this week has been a blessing in disguise. We have decided to sell our house and move about 2 miles from here to a 55+ community. We really needed to get this house listed and finalize floor plans for the new house. If I had chemo I wouldn't have been able to do any of it this week. Once again, the Lord knew what we needed to get done and made it possible for us to do it. Making this move is full of mixed feelings. I love where we live, but I know it is time for us to make the change. Together we struggle through taking care of this half acre yard, but if it was just one of us there is no way he/she could handle it alone. Moving is the practical and right thing to do and Heavenly Father will help us accomplish it.
will there be chickens? lol
