And the weeks go by

Another week has slipped by and I have my 4th AC chemo treatment next Friday and if I had my way it would not be so, but it is and I will go. Dr and blood also next week, I still have a bruise from my last blood work, egad.

Last Monday was my Bunco night and all went well. I have not been feeling so chipper so I accepted help and I am ever so glad I did and as the ladies gathered, they give me their friendship and it means so much. A friend who had never played before came as a sub and said she had a great time and would gladly come again. Bunco is a good thing.

Friday evening I went to the Fuson's home for dinner and had a lovely evening just spending time with people I love. Food was good too.

Yesterday I met a another friend in Rancho Bernardo for lunch at this wonderful little restaurant called Cafe Merlot. We were able to catch up with each other and when we said our goodbye's, she gave me 5 sunflowers and I have them in a vase on my dinning room table and thank the forces that I have such wonderful people in my life.

I am still overwhelmed by this breast cancer and sometimes feel so lost in dealing with it and then there are times like this past Friday at work when a fellow employee came up to me and said that she admired my strength as I continue coming to work and stated that when she was going thru chemo that she could not do anything else and I stood taller and reignited by determination to get thru this.

Sometimes putting one foot in front of another as I walk my walk is difficult and then I hear from women who have survived and I will be a survivor as I think that is a good club to belong to.

Shannon called yesterday morning to say hi and while we were on the phone my grandson Laith sang the ABC song, it was a moment I will always remember and baby Zade made cooing noises, what wonderful sounds.

A friend stopped by last night just to check on me and I know she did not realize it, but she topped my day off of people that are in my corner, it is a good thing.

I thank everyone in my life, I could not do this without you.

A moment in my time,
