Relay for Life

...and Kicking Cancer's Butt!

Our Relay for Life team will be taking the field again on June 1st.
I walk as a fighter.
I walk as a survivor.

Thank you for all you do to help in this fight.  It will take education, awareness and dollars.
If you can help with a donation, please go to my Relay site, http://main.acsevents.org/goto/kickbutt 

 Thank you!


hugs,
chris

Happy Friday!

So happy to find it Friday.  I am feeling better, the temp is perfect and it is almost the weekend.  Excellent!

Now, if wine will finally taste good tonight...life it good!

hugs,

Chemo #117 yesterday.

Had my favorite nurse and she got me some ideas to try for my painful feet and icky mouth taste.  I am trying to avoid taking more drugs.
When I got home my friend Debbie came to give me my B-12 shot.  Now I just wish I had an accupuncture appointment this week.
Already green, but did get out to walk this morning-so gorgeous out there!

I had an opportunity to speak to a UW Pharmacy class.  I talk about my situation, assumptions about cancer and especially lung cancer, and about the person across the counter.  They had wonderful questions and I think I got them thinking about how they will deal with the person, not just the drugs.

Just rambling and checking in...
Hope you all are having a lovely spring.
hugs,
chris
