No Chemo Last Week, Chemo This Week

So on August 11, my blood counts were too low to get chemotherapy. So they skipped it. This week they were better and I received chemotherapy yesterday. It is funny how not getting chemo can make you sad. I think I was worried about things growing if there was nothing in there to stop it. So I am glad I got chemo this week. I am still dragging around an oxygen tank. I am hoping to stop that soon. I got a massage today after not having one in a couple of months. It felt good. I am finding I am feeling a little low, though my mood is picking up. I know part of it is feeling bored and house-bound. The kids start school next week and then we will see how lonely it will be (or if we are all fighting over cars!).

Have a peaceful week.
Michelle
