It's Halloween

It simply amazes me that the holidays are just around the corner and the end of the year is in sight. It is Halloween time and of course, I bought candy and I will have maybe 10 kids but it is one of those traditions that I do enjoy. I remember when I was raising kids and oh what fun the whole thing was, costumes, trick or treat and then oooh the candy. It is a terrific memory and I do hold it dear.

At Dr. day last week, the Dr. was reviewing my upcoming schedule and said that a mistake had been made, hmmm said I, what is it? Well, it is that I will not be going once every 3 weeks for 12 weeks, I will be going once a week for 12 weeks, egad it is a good thing I was sitting on a chair otherwise I am sure I would have been on the floor. This regime starts November 13th and will end January 29, 2010.

I had a mugga test on Tuesday which looks at heart function and as I have not heard anything I will assume I passed. The next round of drugs can cause heart failure and I certainly do not want heart failure and they will test in me again in 3 months just to be sure.

I finished my last A/C treatment course on Friday and can look back and say I did it. I do know that I did not enjoy every step but I took them, it is that old one foot in front of another and you get it done.

I am so thankful for the wonderful people in my life and your care and concern and that you ask how I am and if I need anything and you continue to embrace me thru this breast cancer battle. I embrace each one of you back and please know that it makes my heart smile when you reach out and touch my personal self.

I am having lunch with a friend today in Old Town so it is an outing for me and I am ready, have been close to home and work for the past couple of weeks, one needs to be out and about once in awhile, it is a good thing.

A moment in my time,
