Quick flyby to say hello. Praying everyone has a blessed day.

:wave: HI EVERYONE --- Thanks for your encouragement and prayers. Well, it's funny what a day can do; yesterday, we had clears roads so I was able to go for a walk the last two days. The overnight, we had a huge ***** fall and it's winter wonderland out there with icicles and all. Oh well, it won't last that long.

I woke up a bit tired this am; had to go to town for my weekly blood tests; and then did do a bit of shopping. The lady at the drug store ordered me some clear OXY for my breakouts. Guess what I used? Hydrogen Peroxide (3%) and it worked wonders ... and guess what the major ingredient in OXY is? Ya, you guessed it -- 5% hydrogen peroxide. So I have the clear one and the cover-up one, plus the HP for the next round.

It seems that my side effects were just a bit delayed as the last couple of days I have been a bit fatigued and some hair is falling out (from my body, then my head this am). So when I go for chemo this Monday (prep day) and Tuesday (chemo), I will see if the pretty head wrap is still there. I saw some really pretty long scarves in the gift shops as well. Maybe I can find ones that will match my coats/clothes if they aren't too expensive. Then later on, I can use them as accessories ... ;)

So now I am resting a bit while listening to some favorite Christians songs that I found on Youtube the last few evenings. Here's one I like ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvDBjNG_pws

DH seems to be doing better this week; PRAIZE GOD!!! Thanks for your prayers for him. We have been trying some new stuff -- who knows what is working for sure. We are trying his meds, plus coconut oil in his cereal, plus I am adding Vitamin B complex 1-2 times a week to see if that helps him in any way.

I'll put in a prayer request about my symptoms as I have to go for chemo this Tuesday; and could use lots of prayers for the trip and the day. It's a long one; it takes 5.5 hours just to put the meds in through intravenus(sp?). Thanks; and have a fabulous Friday ... :flow2:

Hi, trying to figure out how this all works. Praying that joining a support group will help me get motivated and to care again. I have always been an emotional eater. I need to get back on track. I am trying to make time for devotions and prayer.

Rosebud, I will say some special prayers for you today. Stay strong and remember he is with you on your journey.

Exodus, glad to see you here....you can do it! Focus on your health and know that we really care :)

Exodus, welcome.Praying that you will be blessed by this group and that you will find the motivation that you need.

BARGOO, RENEE, and EVERYONE ELSE TOO ~ MY BIL took some pictures of me so that you can see what I look like now with my hair before its all gone. In this one I am laughing and you can see that gigantic tumor is gone! PRAIZE GOD! I'll put in some more pictures as I have them edited ... :D

:welcome: EXODUS ~ glad you found us over here; in time, you'll be an old pro with this site. Come back often; practice makes perfect -- in more ways than one!!! :hug:

You look so beautiful and happy, Rosebud. So happy for you. You inspire me every day when I read your posts on 3FC. :hug:

Exodus:welcome3:Glad to have you here.

Rosebud Look good. I think that you are more relaxed now that tumor is gone. I know you are going through a lot but you do look good. And as someone said before, you do have a glow.

Hope everyone is having a great day.

Rosebud-You look wonderful!

Rosebud, before I forget, have you thought of donating your hair to Locks of Love ?
You look gorgeous, thanks for the pics.

Rosebud, continued prayers for you....you look so happy in your picture :)

THANKS for all the compliments everyone; you are all very kind ... :hug:

BARGOO ~ YES, we are going to do that; we will be cutting it off today likely. I washed it last night. I had combed it before and lots came out (it seemed like half, so I let it dry naturally and its very ripply). We will put it in a ponytail then cut it off like I saw LOCKS OF LOVE do on the TV this past week. Then we will donate it and see if they can use it.

Today we going to find a head wrap; as it is coming out so quickly. We decided to make a trip out so that DH can have a change of scenery too. My sister is on phones all day, so she needs peace & quiet today. The :sunny: is shining brightly as well so it's a great day for it. :D

Rosebud: You look lovely and happy! I think its a wonderful thing to donate your hair. I saw a segment on Locks for Love last weekend and its such a good thing.

Rosebud, what a wonderful gift you are giving, this will change the life of some young child. What a selfless act for you. God Bless you.

Rosebud, you are awesome! Have a blessed day everyone!
