Wow, Thursday was my first day back to work and I worked 4 hours then went home and crashed sound asleep for about 5 or 6 hours.  My body definitely wasn't used to that!  Friday I worked again for 4 hours and I was tired, but not as much as Thursday.

I am still limping a little and we're going to wait to see what the oncologist decides he wants to do after he sees the x-rays my general doctor had taken.  I have to have my blood drawn before I go to work tomorrow because I will have chemo on Thursday.  

Thank you to all my wonderful co-workers who welcomed me back so warmly with streamers, balloons, signs, gifts, etc.  It is so nice to work in such a loving and kind environment.

Well, tomorrow is the big day to go back to work and I'm a little nervous but excited!

My potassium did not go up last week, so I was put back on potassium pills and I am still dealing with my slight limp.  I saw my general doctor the other day and he ordered x-rays of my knee and my hip on my right leg and I should get the results of them tomorrow.

Please keep me in your prayers, especially tomorrow when I go back to work!  Thank you!!!!!

I have been struggling with some nagging problems this week, including my limp, but today I am feeling quite a bit better.  I'm trying to find the cause of some of the issues I've been dealing with. I had my blood drawn today and they will see if my potassium levels are going up and if not, I will be prescribed more potassium pills.

One week from today I will be going back to work.  I've never been off for such a long period of time, so it will be emotional to go back.  I do look forward to seeing all the wonderful people I work with!  Please pray with me for all the nagging issues to go away and that I will be prepared to dive back into work.  Thank you always for all your support and God bless you!!!

My doctor has released me to go back to work on August 20th.  I am really looking forward to it, but I have a lot of anxiety over it.  Last night I got sick, which may have been caused by other reasons, but I am very concerned about my stamina.  Please pray that I will be able to build up my stamina to work full days as soon as possible.  I am still struggling with a limp that I cannot correct and a couple other symptoms that are nagging,  I 've been off for 6 months already, but I am still nervous about going back to work--please continue to pray for me about this.  I still appreciate all the fabulous support and love I have receieved from so many of you.  God bless you!!!

Thank you so much to all who have been praying for me and please keep praying!  Last night I got very sick which could have been from a couple of things.  My doctor got my blood results today because I will be seeing him tomorrow and he called me to say my potassium continues to be low and that may be one of the reasons I was so sick last night.  I also have this limp that I cannot correct and I am going to ask the doctor about that tomorrow too.  Along with my doctor visit, I will also have chemo tomorrow and I need strength for that also.  I truly appreciate all your encouragement and support!!!

I have had a pretty good week.  The only thing that has been tough for me this week is that I have been very tired.  I have heard from the disability company and I will be returning to work on August 20, 2009.  I would truly appreciate serious prayer because I do get very tired and I am nervous about starting back when I don't have the stamina I feel I need.

Thank you for your continued support and prayers.  I will continue to be taking chemotherapy through November, and possibly even after that.  The Lord has totally done an awesome job of healing me, and I still have a long road.  I am totally grateful for all your compassion and encouragement!
