HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
IT'S ABOUT LOVING,
SHARING AND CONNECTING!
This is what I believe is happening to us as we take this journey!
Sunday is where I left off. This day was a day that I was suppose to play cards with my grandma and friends. Well, lets say I felt I was back to square one. I was in constant pain from 1:00 P.M. until about 10:00 p.m. I even had to go back on my pain pills (YES Linda I took them)! Not willing, but the pain was too strong. So I only got in one game of cards. Dinner was delivered by the Peters again! My family was in heaven. Thanks so much Cindy.
Monday, a day of pampering by my mom and dad. They took care of me, since I was exhausted from yesterday. I laid in bed most of the day! I even go lunch served to me in bed. That was wonderful. I was still whipped, and didn't get to go to Myles's hockey game. Everyone else went: Dad, grandma, uncle and father. Mom and I stayed home. Later that evening my sister and her husband came over so we could celebrate my niece Stephanie's b-day! Hey, Stephanie I need that facial before I start Chemo.
Tuesday was a much better day. I felt so much better! I was able to play Scrabble with my grandma and Jenny. My parents left to go back home. Thanks mom and dad for being here with me. That night I spent playing cards with Jenny. Jenny's sister Brenda and Aunt Sharon. I was greatful for them to come over and entertain me. I love playing games!!!!!
Wednesday the day we have been waiting for finally came! Greg took me to met Matt at Karmanoes, were we got our next plan of action. So here it goes: Next Tuesday I get my port in and the week after that I go to back to the doctors for blood work and a Chemo class. Then we will start Chemo one day every other week. Good news, I get to take the Chemo home with me and go back 2 days later they disconnect the medicine. Won't that be great! Also, I shouldn't lose alot of my hair. It might just get thinned. Oh, am I am happy about that. So it was a pretty successful day! I even went to see Myles play hockey.
I received another angel to my collection Angel of Heart by my friend Angie and her family. Thanks so much! I just love them. Also, a big thank you goes on to my Washington Family. They have given me money to put towards a cleaning lady to come and clean for me while I am sick. This will help me and my family out! Everyone is taking such good care of me. I am so greatful.
YOU ALL ROCK!!!!
Thanks again for the cards, response to my blog and the visits. I love you all so very much.. Have a great Valentine's Day and remember to...
Live, Laugh and Love one day at a time....

Julie,
I am getting ready to go to work and thought I would just say Hi. Have a wonderful day. I am so glad that you are being taken care of so well (since your not at work and I cannot take care of you). I enjoyed talking to you this week. You are in my thoughts and prayers everyday. After the winter break I will come and see you. Love, Jodie
Hey sis,
You know you are not alone on this journey and I am so happy for you that you get to keep your hair. You are never "back" to square one, square one was the pit of not knowing, you are so far beyound that. You will have good days and bad days and down right awful days but NEVER back to square one. Besides no one will let you stay in the "pits" :). Happy Valentine's Day. Love you lots.

Hi Julie! You didn't miss much at broomball outside of watching Ciocia Sharon scream and yell for two hours and people falling all over themselves. I hope Myles brought you a t-shirt (and one for Matt and Jac). We're thinking of you constantly and pray for you regularly. Keep up your spirits and we'll try and bring over Celie next time we're home. She's excellent at lying next to sick people and keepin them warm (Karen and I know from recent experience) :)
Love you-
BT, Karen, and Celie the Dog.
Happy Valentine's Day Jewels.
Loved hearing that you will only be thinning, maybe Jac should have waited aye:) No way, what a special lady she is! Glad to see a plan in action. We can rent movies while you are getting your treatments at home. I prayed that would be the case! Thank You. Lord, you are awesome. He is taking care of you, remember you are in his hands. And the rest of us want to continue to help with ours. Count on another Sat. dinner. Looks like Tues, Thurs, & Sat are set for next week too! If that doesn't work call me! Love and prayers for all of you, Cindy
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY,
Glad you will be able to come home for your treatments. Home is the best place. It was fun on Tuesday even if we did have to go home in the SNOW. Thanks to Matt for entertaining Uncle Cork while I was away. He enjoyed his company. I am jealous of your Nettie's Dinner..:( But I hope you enjoy it..
Love, Aunt Sharon

Hi Julie,
Just finished reading your blog. My, my, you have so many people that love you. You are so blessed. Stay strong and keep us posted. Your family loves you and we are all praying for your recovery. Let us know if we can be of any help to you. We are all here for you.I am free during the day if you need assistance. Please, please take advantage. Love, Laurie
So happy that your feeling better. Each day will be different, remember if you need someone to listen, scream at, laugh, cry etc...just call I can be over in a few minutes.
Ann Marie had that same chemo, she was sent home with a fanny pack full of chemo and then went back the next day, she could probably help you if you need her. I know she can be a help to you please call her if you need her.
I was able to get out of my jury duty, (my mom is feeling better) so if you need a ride please let me know.
Sending a big hug...
