Hi Everyone! I will try my best to post regular updates on this site. Before I go further, I'd like to extend another massive THANK YOU to everyone here who has shown support, donated meal delivery gift cards and funds, delivered home-cooked meals, and helped with our boys. 

As of last week, I finished my first round of chemo (for me, one round is a three-week cycle in which I get all three drugs week one, then only one chemo drug weeks two and three). That means round two of chemo starts tomorrow with all three drugs again. 

So far side effects have been minimal and well-managed. Fatigue will hit me out of nowhere, but has only really knocked me out two days so far. Other than that, I've just needed to give myself the rest I need. I've avoided nausea and vomiting which is great! 

I am still eating well, sleeping well, and exercising everyday. I truly think those things are making the chemo manageable so far. 

For fun, here is a photo of Luka properly interfering with my workout over the weekend...

It seems such a small thing to do, but I do pray for you and the kids every day and that your chemo will go well and that you’ll continue to have energy and not be nauseated. I even pray that your ice on your feet would not be too much for you. Our family really cares
