Hello all! About to embark on chemo treatment # 7/12 on Tuesday. This past week has not been to bad, considering. It seems that we've finally found a medicine combo that works! At least I hope so, that this week has not been a fluke. I haven't felt good, but it has definitely been the best chemo round so far, and I haven't been sick. Now, if only I could get my hair to grow back!
Babygirl's sleepover party was pretty good. She had 2 friends over and they were very well behaved and had a good time. She is growing up so fast; I can't believe she is 7 already.
Yesterday my friend Barb came over and kept me company during the day. I was feeling pretty good, and we just sat and talked and drank coffee. It was really nice because it's been a long time since I had girlfriend time. She works in my squadron too, and the base had the day off yesterday. I really missed just having someone to gossip with and talk to. Friends are hard to come by here, and harder to keep once you've found them. In a couple of weeks we have to say goodbye to a very close couple of friends. They are separating from the AF and moving to SC. God, how I hate watching friends walk in and out of my life so often. Lucky for me Barb has only been here for a year or so. I guess that is the lifestyle though in the military. You would think I'd be used to it by now.
Bear, my 10 year old, was in a baseball competition last week, and he won for best pitcher and overall champion! He has been invited to be in a competition in Wapaton, ND in 2 weeks. Until yesterday I had no idea where that was; turns out it is an hour or so south of Fargo. That is quite a trip for us! I hope I am up for the trip then and not sick. He is really looking forward to it, and I am so proud of him.
The day after his competition, my SIL will be here for a visit. I am really looking forward to that, and I know the kids are too. They will be out of school and it will be nice to have someone here. And I know Wonderdad will enjoy having his sister around and the help with the kids.
Getting late, and I need sleep. More later!

I'll be thinking about you on Tuesday. Glad your sis in law will be coming up there. It's good to have all the people you can to lean on in tough times.
Thinking about you, hon! You're in the bottom half! And I'm glad this last treatment was more manageable. Here's to hoping this round is better, too!
Hi Cyndi, I am so glad this last time was not as bad as the rest. I am praying for this weeks treatment to be kind to you as well. I love you, Mom
I hope you are doing well after this week - I think of you guys every day. I'm counting the days before I get to come see you guys - too bad I can't bring the girls so you can meet Courtney but I'm looking forward to spoiling my niece and nephews. :) Take care of yourself until I get there. We LOVE you all! T
I know what you mean about how quickly our friends move on. Most of my friends are moving away this summer, and I had just ten short months with them. It's enough to make me want to cry.
I've been thinking of you. I hope this treatment is easier on you!
