Ding Ding, Round 4!

Tomorrow is my 4th round of chemo. It's hard to believe we're more than halfway through at this point. I just wanted to say how very much we appreciate all of the love and support we've received throughout this process. I haven't been able to put down in words how much it means, because it's so big, all consuming, really. Going to the mailbox each afternoon and finding little surprises and cards. I love hearing from all of you. It's like each of you are here with me, even if just for a few minutes. You're all with me in spirit in the chemo lounge. I have a cancer box (I'm not really sure what else to call it) that I put all of the cards and letters in that I've gotten. On days when I need a little pick me up, I read through the mountain of cards and letters and they make me smile. The coolest part of it all for me is that it takes me back to all different time periods of my life and I love that. It makes me realize just how grateful I am to have met and spent time with so many fantastic, wonderful and inspiring people. I am one lucky girl!

I'll admit I'm a little nervous for tomorrow because it's time to get the ball rolling again. I've enjoyed this "quiet" period where all I've had to do is beat up on Kyle with chemo. Tomorrow I meet with my oncologist not only to see how I'm doing, but to schedule some follow-ups to see what Kyle is really up to. I know with all my heart that there's absolutely no use in worrying about the things I cannot change, but it's tough to actually follow through. So, onward and upward (or something like that) tomorrow. Let's knock Kyle out!
