Week 5

Hi everyone, Lisa here!

Just wanted to give a quick update for this week.

We’re hanging in there- side effects from chemo have continued to be manageable and have improved as the days go on. Other than a cold that won’t quit, I’m feeling pretty close to normal physically which I’m really grateful for.

Earlier this week it was almost 80 degrees so we enjoyed time outside in the park with the little man. Two days later it was 40 degrees and snowing! We had an appointment at the Perelman Center (also called PCAM- where I’m getting most of my treatment) and I really didn’t want to get a car home as the Uber drive there had made me nauseous. We walked 45 minutes home in the rain/snow! It felt SO good to move and be outside. We also made some stops along the way for candy and a specialty store for fancy non-alcoholic wines/spritzes. Suffice it to say… every day is “treat yourself” day when you’re in the midst of cancer treatment!

I’ll be writing again soon!
