Arrgghh!  Morning suck!  Blood work and ECG complete.

Back to the room to do some work.  

Back to BC Cancer for an appt with the doctor and the study nurse.  Over an hour later, paper work done, questions asked and we were done for the day.  Now I have to do an ultrasound on both legs to be sure that the pitting edema and seizing of my right calf muscle and pain in my quad is not the result of a blood clot or anything else of concern.

Went to the movie IF with Kiarra.  Had some laughs and popcorn.  Done like dinner and heading back to the room.  Tired!

On the road again.....woops, I mean....Ịn the air again. Yes it is that time!  Heading back to Vancouver for my last cycle, cycle 6 of chemo.  Now donʼt go getting all excited and all.....I still have to go to Vancouver every three weeks, it will just be for shorter periods of time now.   So providing all the results come back in the best way possible, I will continue on the study. I will get randomized by the computer and that will determine if I am to continue on just the study drug that I have been taking - Bevacizumab or if I will also start Mirv, the other study drug. The flight was full today and very squishy, was not the most comfortable and I ended up with a veggie sandwich....was hoping for roast beef but thatʼs what you get for sitting in the back. But hey, Air North feeds you so really canʼt complain. This cycle my sister, Miranda will be with me again and my daughter, Kiarra will join me at the end. A big thanks to Jacob and Ralph for supporting me throu...

Hello everyone  Life has been hectic, crazy and sad these last 4 months and because my routine changed from going to Vancouver every 1.5 weeks and staying there 1.5 weeks to going down every 3 weeks leaving Whitehorse Wed and flying back on Fri, it left me little time to fit in updates. I know, I know, excuses, excuses!  None the less, my treatment in January went well and reports on the CT scan were good. February, I got really sick and was not able to go out for treatment. My next visit was March 5-7 and March 26-28. Inbetween those dates, I took some me time and headed to Las Vegas with Ralph, Miranda and Neil and got to spend some time with Shiela and Jim who were also in Vegas. We had a great time and the weather was good. Made our regular donations at the slot machines but we know our limit and stay within it.....lol. Embracing the adage "enjoy life while you can", I decided (and Ralph agreed) that we could buy a new travel trailer with a slide out. Our traile...

Went to Beetlejuice with Jacob on Saturday. Was pretty good and enjoyed the time with him.  We went to the Keg for steak dinner on Sunday. Always love the steak there.  Monk headed home on Monday and Ralph flew in. Been very tired but have been trying to get some extra sleep but being a late night person makes that very difficult and because breakfast is from 7:30-8:30 you donʼt even get any sleep in time.. Been busy at work but not quite as much as the week before and after school started. Donʼt get me wrong, it is still hard to stay on top of but doing my best. Today was painting day and we chose a winter scene. Not my best work but had fun doing it. Got to visit with Glynis and Neil for a while which was really nice.
