Well this is unofficial good news, unofficial because my oncologist has not yet met with me about the bone scan. We had a doctor friend track done my scan while at work and my bone scan is completely normal! To those that do not know what that means... there is no sign of cancer in my bone marrow.
This is such a blessing! I did not feel like the news was going to be anything but positive, but at the same time it is nice to actually hear good news!
I start chemo on January 4th and I'm ready to get this going so I can get it over with!
I plan to donate my hair on the 3rd and get a cute pixie hair cut, that should last for one to two weeks before my hair falls out. I ordered my wig yesterday and I am excited to see how that turns out. I decided on blonde since that is my actual hair color. I also have been offered a wig from a lady that is about a year ahead of me with the same diagnosis. I do not know her and I am overwhelmed by her generosity, her wig is made of human hair and they are very expensive. She said I could style it and dye it however I want!
Sadly, a friend of mine was diagnosed with breast cancer this week, Angela. Please keep her and her family in your prayers as they start this journey. She is a wonderful women with a strong faith in God. I pray that God gives her the strength and peace that He has given me down this road.
I pray that you all have a Merry Christmas!!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
ReplyDeleteWas making out my daily prayer list for the month of January and just wanted to let you know that you and the family will top my list.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping your family has enjoyed a nice holiday together.
It was good to see the rest of the family in Excel earlier in the week although the circumstances were not the best.
You have such a wonderful support system to surround you as the treatment regiment begins.
My best wishes and pledged prayers are with you as you embark on this next phase of your journey to complete recovery...may you rest in the arms of your Savior and draw from His strength...I pray for His people to draw near to you, Josh and the children and meet your needs before they are even spoken.
Happy New Year!!
Debbie
