Am I awake?

Well let's see... Deven and I  have been really trying to focus on my "down" time so that I can keep up with everything that lies ahead.  I must say I am so fortunate to have such an amazingly understanding husband throughout this whole ordeal!  He reminds me daily how it's okay to feel how I feel and keeps perspective for the days ahead. 

Chemo was rough on my Dad for the first week or so... he hurt worse than he has ever hurt. He didn't feel real great either... but he is a trooper and keeps moving forward!  He is still working full-time and has amazed me with his strength!  His hair fell out and now he is bald... that will definitely throw reality back into your face as now when you look at him you can tell he is sick.  He has definitely not appeared sick before this... so this has been a bit hard!  He looks much better with a bald head then I would have guessed!

My Dad's next chemo appointment is Thursday... so my fingers are crossed that this time will be easier not harder!  GOOD LUCK DAD! 

I am excited for the warm weather... we can start using the trailer and get away for short weekend trips. It will be a good "escape" and fun to spend time with my hubby and puppy without the chaos of life.
