BUSY...BUSY......BUSY......Chemos are making me "hyper" the night after can't sleep at all but can't think or study either....not a good combo! Other than that so far so good.....will find out more about the underarmour thing I guess this week......

Having a harder time finding time now for the blog...will do my best to keep up.......OK am pretty much "done" with this whole cancer thing.....what do I mean....OK I am convinced I have it beat and all of this chemo and the radiation I'm going to have are just "icing on the cake", right! Have started an accelerated Physical Therapy license program two yrs of schooling in 11-14 months....I will have no life other than books for quite awhile.....

Chemo again tomorrow....hopefully it will take less time, and there will be minimal side effects like last time!

Hope everyone is taking advantage of this awsome exercise weather! Was very tired Friday night after a full day and Thursday chemo slept 10 hours but woke up Saturday to an 18 mile bike ride!
PA said this chemo may be cumulative so have to take advantage of feeling good when I can!

First chemo od the new series today....so far so good, was a stroke judge at a swim meet immediately after, will see how I feel tomorrow.....

Got some big news on another fron....I've been admitted into the ATC-PTA bridge program at Kent State Astabula which means I'll be able to sit for PTA license in about 1 year. Frankly irritates me I have to do this, but the way the health care lobbyists and laws are I frankly can't get a decent job without this license....if only I had been able to foretell the future 20 yrs. ago.....so if anyone has any ideas of "older woman" scholarships, financial assistance, how I can get them to give me reciprocity so I don't have to pay out of state tuition let me know.....hope this is worth it....

So I guess most of you by now saw the interview on TV. All in all I didn't sound unitelligent, and didn't look too bad (although I agree T.V. does add 10 lbs.....I am not quite that "bulky" as I looked). Anyway I am a little dissapointed that they didn't include any of my message about the importance of proper nutrition, keeping the body in an alkaline state, the need for water, etc, oh well. can't have everything.

A huge thank you to Laura and Shane Sweat for the use of their awsome training facility they own the sweattshop right off Cornell Rd. in Blue Ash. go to their web site for more info!

If anyone is reading this and has gone through surgery, cancer, etc. and would like more info, help with exercise, or words of encouragement feel free to let me know. After all we are all in this together!

New chemo tomorrow, hope it goes OK.....

sooooo....rode about 20 miles both Saturday and Sunday, the great weather was too much to miss. Hope you did something.

Anyone see the ch 19 news? Its on again between 8:30-9 and sometime on the 10:00 news. Seemed prettty decent, although they didn't include anything about the nutrition part that I talked about for a good 5 min (I thought the reasons for keeping your body in an alkaline state and how raw veggies and water do thatbiologically was pretty interesting...guess they didn't), but all in all not bad.....
