Good vibes sent to all caregivers and kudos for doing what yall do.

My birth mother had hospice care along with one of my sisters helping her last 2 months of life. I have a ton of appreciation for how yall handle and do what yall do.

My yearly CEA levels are great!! My tumor marker levels are <.5...so I am really happy about that! Dec 2017 was my 6th year cancer free!

My other labs were not so great. The extensive colon resection causes periods of being anemic. Now is one of those. Extremely so!
Pending , I start IV Infusion therapy in 2 weeks for 10 weeks and my monthly B12 shots will go to every other week during that time.

I have been extremely fatigued, having cardiac arrhythmias, and just stay sleepy all the time, have to get frequent naps in....my appetite sucks.....

BUT, I will bounce back, I just want to sit & rest ALL the time! I have little energy to do most anything ATM.

Thanks for listening......love to you all....

Today we find out if my mom's cancer is gone. I am nervous. I am sure she's is a wreck. I had to come to school to study but I am finding it hard to focus.
