I know it's been a while, but I'm slowly getting back to my normal life, and it's been a little busy lately. I had the last spinal tap with interthecal chemo a couple of weeks ago. It went fine...got the hiccups for 48 hours again...yay. I am now back at work. I started back last Wednesday, and worked the morning shift Wednesday through Sunday. I hate the morning shift. On top of that, I'm now on day 7 of 8 straight. Welcome back to work!! But, believe it or not, I am still glad to be back. I feel that I'm finally back to normal. I still have to go to the doctor to get my levels checked, but now it's down to only once every 3 weeks or so. I'm feeling good, my energy level is good. I had some weirdness last week. I started with an irritated throat...and my skin hurt. I know that sounds weird, but it feels kinda like a muscle ache...but in my skin. Both of these were side effects that I experienced after chemo. I thought that was weird, because I haven't had any chemo in a while. But, after doing some research, apparently you can experience chemo effects for years after receiving chemo...so I have that to look forward to! But all in all, I'm doing good. My new schedule at work starts this week. I'll be working Saturday-Wednesday 3pm-midnight. While I'm not necessarily 100% happy with it, (because it screws up another college football season), at least it's a consistent schedule. No longer am I working 3 nights, one midshift and a morning shift. But, I'll hardly ever get to see Candice...and again...no games at UGA.
On another note, I just found out a friend's dad was just diagnosed with cancer, and while it's still early, the news hasn't been good so far. While I don't want to say who this friend is, in case he may not want everyone to know, please keep him and his family in your thoughts and/or prayers. Also, as some of you know, one of our anchor/reporters, Jaquitta Williams was just diagnosed with breast cancer. She already underwent surgery, and should start treatment soon. If you would also keep her in your prayers as well. Thanks all, and if anything new happens, you'll be the first to know!!
