15th Herceptin treatment

The last week was pretty boring. And guess I am getting so also.

Had my 15th Herceptin treatment. 3 more to go. The last one is October 2. Hurray! I will miss my nurses but it is good to be able to move on.

Tuesday, the trainer came for Thomas and I was very pleased to see him (Thomas, not the trainer) laying on the front lawn with 2 German Shepherds (the trainers dogs). He (Thomas) wanted to get into trouble but was laying very calmly with them next to him. A big improvement but still much further to go.

On Wednesday, encouraged by Tuesday, I took both dogs for their first walk alone with me since my surgery. It went okay but Thomas still got up and rowdy when another dog appeared. More work to be done.

I finally got my Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream, hot fudge and whipped cream to make a hot fudge sundae. Thinking it would be fun to share my celebration with Susan, Stacey, Sam and Riley, I took everything over to their house only to find that Susan and Sam were asleep since she (Susan) had to work that night. Quel disappointment! I went back home and celebrated with myself. Maybe next time guys!

Friday was another day of fighting with the COBRA people over my health insurance. Ugh! Only 7 more days until I am without health insurance - what a scary thought - and these people just can't get their acts together. Call us back on Wednesday they said...... How long can it take them to tick off three boxes and give me my approval??????

Saturday, I joined a Dragon Boat race team to race on Sept. 23rd. Our first practice is the end of the month. It was a great group of people and I am really looking forward to racing with them.

Now, I am just hanging out. It is the first morning in a while that I have not woken up lethargic and exhausted. Hopefully, that means that my blood counts are finally coming back and the anemia is being beaten back.

So much for my boring life.
