Journal entry by Amanda Stilwell

Amanda had her fifth cycle of chemotherapy this last Wednesday.  On a positive note, NO nausea!  Woohoo.  That being said, this cycle brought extreme fatigue.  This isn't just your normal fatigue.  Chemotherapy fatigue is like putting on all your winter clothing including your heaviest boots, after running a marathon, all while trekking through a foot of mud!  This week definitely brought its mental challenges as Amanda had to rely on Jordan more than she would have liked.  

Amanda continues to have an incredible attitude.  Your check-ins and constant support help to keep her upbeat and fighting!  

ALSO!!!!!  February 5th Riley's Bar and Grill will be hosting their annual ice fishing fisheree and have decided that all the proceeds will be given to Amanda.  The fisheree will be fun itself, but there will also be a plethora of items to be raffled off at the bar!  This is Wisconsin people...so what better way to spend a chilly winter day than by supporting Amanda on FEBRUARY 5th by ice fishing!
