Happy Friday!

I've completed round #5 of chemo and I'm still doing very well.  Dr. Albain said I looked very healthy and my counts are great.
 
Since I seem to have energy on Fridays,  I was able to go to the Field Museum and see the Pirate's Exhibition today.  Very interesting.  We then ate at Manny's Deli recommended by Barack and Michelle Obama.  Great corned beef sandwich!

I survived the buzz.  It's definitely a weird feeling.  I am wearing my wig for outings and slowly getting used to it.  It is more comfortable to be around the house without it.  I also have some hats that work, too.  I'm sure you are all anxious to check out my new look.

I once again want to thank you all for everything from daily prayers to "weekly happys".  I can't believe how creative you are!

Take Care,
Karen

  1. Glad to hear you survived the buzz but better is the news you're healthy and your counts are good. Keep doing the countdown. Remember it is a marathon not a sprint. Love, Karen
