no chemo again

Most of you probably know since I posted it on FB, but I couldn't have chemo again last week.  WBC was up, but still not high enough for chemo. Double edged sword again...but choosing to focus on the positives (thanks to some prompting from my friend Erin).  I'm feeling good, and definitely enjoying it!  Baseball games, time with friends and family, time on the boat, a little more energy, not being sick...can't complain about any of that! Trying to stay focused on trusting God and His timing and the many blessings he has showered upon me.

I gained 2 lbs! Something to celebrate. Hoping to put on a few more before Thursday. My appetite is HEALTHY, so that's also something to be happy about. Still trying to take it easy on the sugar (which is definitely harder some days than others). I wish I was putting on some muscle, but I will embrace these little pockets of fat i'm putting on.  I look at these models on tv and in ads who are so thin (i feel gross and they're smaller than me!) - and all I can think is "i sure hope you don't get sick cause there's nothing for you to rely on if you start dropping weight". Have a little in your reserve tank people cause you just never know.


But I trust in you, O Lord;
I say, "My times are in Your hands"
