Marcel and I made it back from Leavenworth, we had an amazing weekend. I was definatley a bit sore after the surgery it took me two days to feel normal but nothing I couldn't handle. My upper body just felt like I had been put through boot camp. The area seems to be healing well only a little bruising.
Marcel and I got up at 6:00AM to make the trek home from Leavenworth today we knew we had lots of snow to deal with for our trip home. It took us about 4 hours to get to Abby. I wasn't even white knuckled. We made it to chemo class with time to spare so we stopped for lunch at Milestone's (thanks to the Mierau Xmas party for the gift certificate.)
Chemo class was at the Abby cancer clinic. I would have to say it wasn't really worth our rush home and 2 and 1/2 hours of my life I will never get back. They talked alot about what to expect but it was very general and there were about 10 other people in the class with me.
What to expect:
(possibly every person is different).....fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, hairloss (for sure because of the chemo they are giving me) etc.....
I didn't really think it was very valuable because I have read lots about it and have asked lots of questions already so didn't really take away anything new.
I am still waiting for my chemo date they told me today they usually give you 24 hours notice and they are trying to get me in this week. Of course with the snow other patients are having to switch their appts so it's all up in the air.
Wednesday I go for my bone scan.
Take care for now :)
