THANKS FOR COMING EVERYONE!!!
:pizza: :cake: :dog2: I am very tired, but we had a lot of fun, yummy snacks and great company. :pizza: :cake: :dog2:
I’m done with radiation and a lot of my meds. I still have cycles of chemo that I’ll be doing, but they are short cycles and I can take it before bed so I won’t have to feel the wonky effects…..I think.
This is VERY exciting, because the daily treatments make me very tired and weak. But I have been feeling better lately :D
ALSO, I’m looking forward to game day today. I think I’ll have more energy and be able to enjoy it more. Last time I was still pretty out of it.
Yesterday was the last day of radiation! She is very happy that it is over. :yes:
Her spirits and energy is high and doing pretty good, walking the dogs, and the Sifus would be happy to know, she is doing eight pieces of brocade. :-)
Last week of radiation! It’s almost done! :D
Christina is doing much better, by the way, she is walking the dogs and heating food up some times. She does get waves of energy and fatigue though.
The Gerson Therapy is a vegetable juicing regiment that “naturally reactivates your body’s magnificent ability to heal itself.” They say it is even a cure for cancer. They even have a book that outlines exactly what you have to do for this therapy, that’s one of the reasons why I don’t think this is a scam since they aren’t making a whole lot of money from the book, unlike others where they have “secret” remedies. Besides, a whole lot of organic vegetables can’t be bad for you.
I am going to start doing part of this, and try to get Christina to drink as much organic vegetable juice as I can. Christina’s brother said he was going to do it too.
The three documentaries about the Gerson therapy is available on youtube. I haven’t seen the third one yet, but so far, I like the second one more than the first one.

Today is the end of the third week of treatments. We are half of the way there! :yes:
She is still looking good and feeling good, there are some ups and downs here and there, but it’s mostly good.
I can’t wait till she is done with the radiation treatments.
The hat party was a great success, thank you to everyone who came to show their support and thank you to those who weren’t able to make it and showed their support in spirit! She had fun at the party and now she has many head coverings to choose from and to match her outfit. :-)
It is a blessing to know there are so many friends and family who love and support us. Thank you!
Here are some pictures from the party.
Well, after 5 days of chemo and 3 days of radiation, she is feeling pretty tired. :no:
But, at least the headaches and nausea are mostly gone. I’m hoping she will get better rest now and have more energy.
