Hello guys. I was trying to take pictures of dolls today, but my hectic schedule didn't allow for it. Just to get you caught up. I just finished two weeks of radiation. It wasn't painful or anything, but it was very emotional. They treated three areas; my right arm, my left leg, and my spine. Treatment of the spine left me really nauseous. I hate that feeling. Midway through the second week, I was able to take advantage of their free acupuncture sessions. That really helped take away the nausea. I also experienced some fatigue. There were a few days that I slept most of the day away. After the first week, I started having pains in my right knee. The xrays revealed lesions in that area as well. So I am headed back to radiation next week for another 5 treatments on my knee.
My house guest is doing much better. She may be leaving next week. My brother is coming to visit today, and my granddaughter will be here from next Monday through the end of the year, Chances are I won't be posting much at all, but I will try to get a couple of posts up before January. I miss my dollies and I miss chatting with you guys.
Just in case I don't get back before Christmas, have a very merry Christmas. I look forward to being back regularly starting in January,

ReplyDeletePhyllis - You know what they say, God doesn't give you more than you can handle. I guess he knows I'm a work-a-holic because he keeps piling it on. Lol! Have a wonderful holiday, my friend.
DeleteI second what Phyllis said and wish you didn't have to go through this. I am happy to hear that you have family coming for the holidays and glad to hear your house guest is doing well. I need to start posting myself but I keep letting my doll time get put on the back burner. Happy Holidays, Vanessa!

ReplyDeleteIan - Thanks for the holiday wishes. I hope you had a wonderful holiday, too.
DeleteI'm sorry that I didn't know what was going on with you. I know I usually check in but Nov & Dec where a whirlwind of crazy busy. Once I had a chance to be lazy over the holidays I didn't even feel like reading blogs.
ReplyDeleteKenya - I know all about crazy in Nov and Dec. I totally understand about taking a break from the blogs.
