I can't tell you how many times I sat down to update the blog, and couldn't find the words to say. Ya'll, she has hit a routine. Things are very much the same from week to week. There is only so many ways to say she is tired or nauseous or gone to chemo. Whewwww! I wanted to say something, but didn't want to sound like a broken record.
Since my last post, she is still being such a champ with her chemo. Week in and week out, it knocks her completely off of her feet, but in true Peggy fashion, she keeps fighting and going back for more. Not going to lie, chemo has been really hard on her these last few weeks. She has NO energy and is sick from time to time. She sleeps a lot. A lot, a lot. Simple things such as taking a bath or getting up to eat wears her out.
Her doctors are happy with her treatment plan. She had "the works" done last week, and all her scans and tests came back with positive results. Right now, it seems as though the chemo is working.
She also visited a new lymphodema doctor who has diagnosed her with reflex sympathetic distraphy (RSD). I couldn't even begin to tell you what all that entails, so read here. Her arm is some better, but still a constant hurt and pain.
Thank you to those who are still such an encouragment to my Momma. Your visits, texts, phone calls, sweet notes and cards have not once gone unnoticed. The love that you all continue to show her is a constant reminder of the love that Jesus has for all of His children. Continue to keep her in your prayers. The trip to Birmingham each week is very demanding on her tired, fragile body. We love you.
Be back soon..
