Not much going on

Seriously, I have nothing interesting to report. Israel has been doing football conditioning (well, not this week, I've needed Noah's ark to get around town with all the rain!) Sophie will start gymnastics Aug 5th. That's about it.My energy is almost back to normal, I had to take Wednesday off to rest. The only real problem left is pooping! It still hurts. I tried to lube my bum before I went today and it was worthless. Oh well.  I wish I had something sassy to say but it's Friday so I'm wore out! I want to give a huge shout out to DeeAnn Davis and Nancy Lyons for donating some PTO to me while I'm off! I am very blessed!

I know it's been awhile but its worth the wait....

So today I went to see Dr Kendrick and he said the tumor responded well to chemo and XRT! He said it shrunk quite a bit but I will have to have a colostomy and no it's not reversible. I went to see Dr Vega today also and he said treatment depends on the surgery. If he doesn't get clear margins then I may have to do more chemo plus IV chemo and XRT, if he does get clear margins he wants me to still do pill chemo, which is fine because pill chemo was a breeze. Chris went with me to my appts today, he was picking on me because I'm so vain. I was asking Dr K all kinds of questions about how my body is going to look. Which reminds me, I'm growing my hair back out, and since I won't see much of society for eight weeks that should be fine. I almost forgot to tell you my surgery will be August 14. I will miss Sophie's first day of school but Chris reminded me that he missed Israel's so I guess it balances out. I suppose that's it for now. Football conditioning starts next week so you'll probably hear more from me on that. Talk to y'all later!
