hi everyone! its been a while, hasn’t it? I may or may not have forgotten that this is something I need to update. lucky for you, my mother kindly gave me a reminder (she threatened me). 

honestly, I have not been up to much. it is very nice that things are slowing down. i did enter the maintenance portion of chemotherapy. this  means most of my meds are now oral instead of iv and i spend less time at the hospital. i was hoping this phase would be easier, but I guess it takes your body some time to adjust. I have been dealing with extreme fatigue and headaches where I (still) don’t have a bone flap.

even with the setbacks, I continue to make progress in my speech, occupational, and physical therapy. I am building much higher stamina in my walking. We are working towards getting rid of the brace on my left ankle.  I don’t need a well chair everywhere I go. When Max came to visit, we were even able to go to a restaurant and eat! I can lift my arm above my head and sometimes my fingers will wiggle.We thank God for the progress we are seeing as I recover.

We ask for prayers so that I start feeling more energized so I can keep continuing progress and that my headaches go away. I am hoping my body can keep tolerating the chemo. We are still waiting for a call that they can move my surgery up. thank you!
