Onward we go



After a really good and enjoyable week (thanks to my chemo being cancelled last week), and my neuropathy has gotten better with the medication, it's now time to head off to the cancer center tomorrow for my 7th chemo treatment.  

Ugh, I'm not looking forward to this at all.  I'll be down for about 5 days.  The good thing......after this one, I only have one more.  Thank Heavens!  


I cut some yellow day lilies and brought them in from the garden this morning to brighten up the dining room.  The garden is filled with these big yellow blooms, it's like sunshine everywhere.  


I picked the first of our "Better Boy" tomatoes today.  I think we're going to get quite a few this year.  Tomato sandwiches, yum!  



I'll be back soon.  


Thank you again for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.  
It means so much to me.

Please know that my thoughts are with you as you undergo your treatment tomorrow, Donna. I hope the bad days aren't as bad as you are anticipating.
Your daylilies are gorgeous. I have never thought to bring daylilies inside. I figured they wouldn't last long enough to be worth it. I can see I need to give it a try.
I noticed one red tomato in my garden this morning too. How exciting. Your sandwich sure does look tasty.
Take care.
Hugs to you,
Kim

I am so glad you had an enjoyable week. It makes the bad days not quite as bad...though I know they really are.

I can't believe you have tomatoes already! Ours will not be ready until the middle of July and we live in the same state...lol.

Thinking of you tomorrow and sending warm hugs.

Hi Donna,
I'll be joining these other ladies in thinking about you tomorrow. Hope all goes well. You're almost through...and then you will be able to enjoy the summer and all it brings.
Blessings to you, Balisha

I'll be thinking of you in the morning.
The encouraging thing is that you now know that the feeling will come back and that things will return to a new normal after the treatment.
