Last Day of treatment!!!

Hallelujah! Today will be my last radiation and what a relief. Eventually we all end up getting burned and they tell me I've been stronger that most. Thank God for that because it has become very uncomfortable. Last of the chemo is wearing off and I was better prepared for the mouth sores this time, so they weren't quite so bad. Next week we'll find out if the hair stays or goes, it's not feeling like my hair but atleast it's hanging on. Now I will have a couple of weeks where the treatments continue to give off their nasty effects but I will get to stay home and that sounds so good, we're so sick of driving.
I know there are some of you that need prayer (L) and please know I'm thinking of you and putting you in my prayers. Thankfully we have our God and our friends to help us.
Come to me all you who are weary and burdended and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:23
And that is where I'm headed into the arms of my Lord to recover. And I've also got this wonderful husband who has been absolutely unbelievable thru this, Jimmy is AWESOME.
love to you all, Jamie

Almost there!

Okay friends, we are starting week6. This will just be radiation as I finished the chemo last week. Getting tired and so sore, this will probably be the worst week. Please pray that the mouth sores and tummy upsets are not too bad. Mostly I will probably just sleep this week until the bad stuff passes.
Wonderful last week, so nice to have Katie here and enjoying her friend Emily. Got to have a family dinner and good times with just Katie and Jimmy and I. We did have one valley to get through, our Lovey cat of 22 years had to be put down. Katie got Lovey when she was about 3 years old and so it was nice that we were together for the final days.
Thanks to you all for the blogs, they help me so much keep my spirits up. And some are just down right funny (Dick) and those really bring the smiles.
Blessings to all of you and lots of prayer to finish this out and get on to recovery. Jamie

HOPE IS A RESPONSE TO THE FUTURE THAT HAS ITS FOUNDATION IN THE PROMISES OF GOD.

End of Week 4

Yipee!! This was really a pretty good week. I'm getting a little more uncomfortable all the time. Next week is chemo week and that's not bad just a nuisance. Nice to have Bob and Rosie around and taking me to Laramie one day last week. Katie will be here on Sunday,VERY EXCITED! Thanks to you all for writing. Check out Renie's poem on my last post, it is beautiful. My blessed little red haired friend helped me get the house ready for Katie. So much food has been brought in and may I say my friends are GOOD cooks! And wonderful Cindy at CP&L got my PC up and running after a major crash on Thursday. Aren't we all blessed to live in such a community and to have such great support. Blessings and prayers to all of you. Jamie
