Well had my 4th chemo pumped into my liver. Oh joy! I went in with a smile and came out very dopped up.....haha! I was feeling nothing. Later that night I did get sick which I don't usually do but my body was just done with it all. My husband was up there, my friend Kris & her daughter were there too.....ok I have never seen anyone move so fast to get out of my room! LOL! It would of been a chain reaction if I would of threw up with those 2 in the room. Kris said she almost ran Steve over....hahaha! Next time get'em Kris....hahahaha!
As always they took super care of me! Poor Tina, I wake up (but I don't remember) and call her name to make sure she is there with me. We make the Dr. Ali listen to 80's hair band music which he doesn't like...hahaha! But will listen to it for me. Last time I woke up when I heard Motley Crue's song "Home Sweet Home" and told Tina not to freak out but that will be played at my funeral. Which it will. 1 because I love that song....2 I love my Motley Crue & 3 I will be going to my Home Sweet Home. That is my take on the song.
Well anyway an update is to follow here. Had the chemo on Thursday came home on Friday & but Tuesday had an appointment for more regular chemo. But I so knew I wasn't going to do chemo today. I was very Dehydrated and had to have IV fulids today and will tomorrow too. I was down the whole weekend with a fever that went up & down.
I didn't go to the ER like I should of. Well you sit there for 8 hours before you get a room on a floor. Who wants to sit in a exam room for 8 hours. Not me. Plus I shouldn't be down there with all the sick people. I could catch what they have on top of with what I'm dealing with. But they do take wonderful care of me. Just wish they'd fix that issue and make better hospital food like they use to!!! GGRRRRR! Nothing like crappy food when your sick.
So more IV fluids and rest. No chemo till after kids are done with spring break. Which starts soon. I do not want to do chemo while they are on break. It's not fair to them at all. Plus I'm just sick of chemo. Which is ok I can feel that way.....haha.....We all have that right when you have cancer to be grumpy about chemo. Blahahaha!
Ok that's about it. Hope everyone out there has a wonderful day.....which ever day you read this on :)
Be happy & live your life to the fullest each & everyday please! Take care even if I don't know you I send out tons of hugs & love to you all!

Just an update
Not much going on here but just alittle update.
No new cancer anywhere. Which is wonderful.....YAY!
The whole liver thing is crazy. Left side as of now is doing well. It's listen....my liver has a mind of it's own.
Right side is not listen at all. So we have to do #4 procedure to go through my femoral artery. Insert a catheter and go to the liver.
Go to where the tumors are in the right side of the liver and fill the tumors with 2 kinds of chemo. It can take up to 3 or 4 hrs. They give me lots of lovely drugs so I don't remember it. Tina the nurse....also my friend....tells me how silly I am during the whole thing. They play 80's hair band music for me....hahaha! Dr. Ali & the staff are so good to me. We always are laughing before they loop me out. Just love them all!
Their so amazing and so good to me. I could never ask for anything better than everyone who takes care of me during all of my care & treatment. I have to say to do what they do day in & day out....their all angels. God put them here on earth to help others. I am very thankful for that. I don't know what I would do with out them.
They become your family. They become your friends. They take the place of the friends you use to have. The friends that leave you because they can't handle the fact you have cancer. Their scared and don't understand it. Or they just don't really care about you and just drop you like a hot cake.
Oh I had those kind of people around me....I choose to disconnect from them. Their what you would call "TOXIC" friends. If you have those kind of friends GET RID OF THEM!!! I think I have for the most part. They so bring you down. To keep yourself strong you must think of yourself first when it comes to cancer.
So that's it from me today. Thought everyone would like to know what was going on with my treatment. Just remember I'm not going anywhere anytime.
I am strong......hear me roar......hahahaha! Oh had to do that one! HA!
and keep humor in your life. it goes a long way :)
