I received good news today. My INR (bloods ability to clot) is 2.0....YEAAA!!! It needs to be between 2.0 and 3.0 to be able to stop daily injections. I need to be within these numbers for one more day then I can quit stabbing myself in the belly. Not Fun!
I started making protein shakes yesterday. I have protein powder that I mix with Ensure and anything else I can put in,( ie. bananas, yogurt, orange juice, milk, strawberries....) I will be healthy for surgery!
Yesterday I had chemo and today I feel very run down and tired. But all in all I feel good. They changed my Thyroid meds again up to 137 mcg. Because of the cancer and chemo my whole body system is outa whack, so changes are to be expected .
Linda made me a large picture frame that holds many pictures of my grandchildren. It is awsome. It is hanging on the wall at the end of my bed. If I am feeling low I just look at thier little faces and I instantly grin and feel much better. I miss my daughter and her family very much.
I miss all of you but your always on my mind!!

We are always thinking about you and hoping you get better fast. Look for something coming in the mail that will lift your spirits, I mailed it but its from Jessi.
OK, I finally got this to work. I found that if you have a google email, like Gmail, all posts to this blog will show up there!
