I am so sorry that it has taken me this long to get back on here....when they say chemo and radiation are going to make you exhausted....that's an understatement! BOY OH BOY.....I have been beyond exhausted. You know when you're in labor and as soon as you push that last push and out pops baby....then you're body just shuts down and you sleep....that's what I have felt like. Having chemo pumping in your veins 24 hours a day for 4 and a half days....just pure craziness. I went and got the pump taken off on Friday ( I get a two week break from that) so hopefully I will start feeling somewhat normal again before I have to start again. I will continue on with the radiation for 6 weeks....just taking a break on the weakened!
Y'all, my poor husband is definitely fulfilling the in "sickness and health" vow to me right now. I do radiation every day at 8:30 and he takes me then brings me back to my parents house and then turns right back around and goes to Tifton or wherever he has to go that day....but he doesn't start his day until he's already got me back home. He has been so sweet and considerate and he says the absolute sweetest things about me on Facebook. I have been pretty good holding myself together, but that man knows his sweet words get me every time! :)
My hair hasn't started falling out yet....I hate waiting for it to happen! I know it's gonna happen....but come on already! Guess it's like telling everyone your pregnant, no one really believes you until you start wearing maternity clothes!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Sorry, that really made me laugh.
We have been so overwhelmed by the kindess of our friends, family and even strangers so far....the cards, the messages, the food (good gosh, some of y'all can cook!!!)....My God has blessed me with some downright amazing people in my life and I thank Him so much for that. We are staying with my parents right now...there is absolutely no way I could've been able to take care of my boys alone while Barry went to work. We are managing just fine. I feel sorry for my Mama....Andrew used to be a Mama's baby, now if he even hears her voice, he crawls with his head down crying for her!!!
ok....Barry has stopped snoring at this moment, so I'm going to try to lay down and go to sleep!
Love to you all!!!
You are amazing! We are all cheering you on each and every day. Keep fighting, Jayme.
