A beautiful cool morning in Indiana. What a blessing for July! I am up early and continuing to feel good. Learning about this blogging is a little frustrating but I will figure it out.
Although our travels have been interrupted we are in the best place for that to happen. We are blessed to be in a very nice campground only a few miles from many many friends. We are also only a few miles from where I am getting my Chemotherapy.
I promised I would start this blog to keep you updated on my detour so here is what has happened so far. I had my first chemo on Friday July 12. I felt fine during and after the infusions. I keep picturing this poisonous mixture killing each little "bastard" c cell. Since I am an old Trekkie I of course see Phasers and Proton torpedoes doing the killing!

I did feel weak and flu like on Tuesday and Wednesday (days 4 and 5) but then stared feeling better. Have felt good since so have been going to visit friends and family we have not seen since getting back here. We even went to Peru, IN to join our Ohio River Valley RVing Women friends for a potluck dinner.
The doctor has told me that Carol is to be the boss throughout this detour but as you can imagine that is a bit difficult for me! I am really trying to let go and just focus on getting well. Boy will I have a lot to do next year to make up for all she is doing now.
My next chemo is Monday July 29, then every two weeks. By the way, I still have my hair but they say not for much longer. We are going to do something funny before it goes but we are not completely sure what yet. I will post pics next blog.
Thanks to everyone for your positive thoughts, prayers and cards. Thanks especially to Vicky Para for sending me her protective healing rocks! Damn the c cells! Full steam ahead!
