Almost one month...

It's hard to believe surgery was almost a month ago! 9 days in Barnes, 11 days at my moms, and we have been home almost a week! Wow! Time flies! My mom and Michael were wonderful and let me sleep in their bed since there was a bathroom in their room...they slept downstairs on the extra bed. I'm sure Michael just enjoyed me cooking a few meals! Haha!

As most of you saw on Facebook, Dr K has decided bc there was tumor coming through a lymph node we were unaware of, another 2 months of chemo are necessary. I can't say I'm happy but I also want to be completely DONE with this crap!

I'm am tired tired tired of not being able to eat what I crave. I have advanced myself to softs so that I have a little more to choose from. Eggs, pasta, etc...but what I really what is a freaking cheeseburger or steak. Mmmmmm....I'm such a red meat fan. Can you tell? Ha!

My incisions are all healing really well! The only problem is this stupid feeding tube. It's kind of coming out on its own so I'm excited to have it removed Wednesday at my follow up with Dr Patterson. My mom and Dr K are interested in keeping it since I won't feel much like eating with chemo but I'm over it. I'll figure it out. I'm already down a little over 20 lbs but they said to except this. Give me red meat!😆

I'm so glad the kids are almost out of school. Let's see how long that lasts;) shelby and Jackson are going to be in summer school for a month so it's not completely out of school but at least Audrey will be home! They all have VBS, church trips, a new studio, band camp, it's going to be an awesome summer! I hope I have energy for all of it!

I love you all! The benefit was amazing! Jamie, mom, and Michelle did an awesome job putting it together and are so glad it's over! Haha! It was fun and definitely helpful to my little family over the next few months. Thanks for all the donations as well! AWESOME friends and family. Period.

Love you all! On to the next round!
