a little peeved

So this morning, early, like 8:45, I get a phone call.  I usually don't answer our home phone and screen them by the answering machine.  I figure the ones with my cell will call me on my cell if they really need to talk to me.  The others are probably trying to sell me something or get money from me.  Well, I should have let it go, but I answered it.  It was a lady who started out by saying that she wanted me to donate to their cause to help women who are fighting breast cancer pay their bills and help them out with money.  I politely told her that I couldn't help and that I, too was fighting breast cancer.  She hung up.
Ok, this really gets to me and I know it shouldn't.  BUT WHERE ARE THOSE PEOPLE WHEN I NEED HELP.  WHERE IS MY HELP???  I shouldn't be this way, but it really upset me.  I never really paid attention to things like this until now.  Those people who call pay no mind to the other person they are calling and what they are going through.  IT is only about them getting their money.  and it doesn't have to be about cancer, it can be anything like March of Dimes or Special olympics.  I wonder if those calls to those people spark a tear when they get a call to donate.
I should say that I do have help. First is with God. He pulls me through everyday.  Second is Rob and the kids.  They make me laugh and keep me grounded.  Third is my family.  I could not get through this without my parents and my in-laws!  They have strength beyond what I have and I know it is leaking onto me!
And last but not least is my friends.  Without your encouragement, I would be a hopeless mess!

I am almost done with all my treatments.  The treatment I get every 3 weeks is still chemo but it doesn't make me sick (only the bills do!).  I will be done in July and I am looking forward to my life with out cancer!

Thank you all for your prayers and support.
Philippians 4:13 "I can do all this through Christ who gives me strength."

Love to all,

I'm forgetting something...

It seems that I am forgetting a lot lately!!  I sometimes feel like my patients, confused.  This thing I read about, Chemo brain, must be true.  But I I don't want to use it as a excuse for not doing things that I have said I would do.
So I keep my post-it notes close by and write down what I need to do in hopes that my loss of memory won't get the the best of me.
My nephew said he thinks it is hereditary because my brother (his dad), my dad and my mom all have it. Well I have to leave out my mom because she has "chemo brain" too.  But my brother and dad all write on post-its to remember.
I'M DOOMED!
As I am starting my class today, I just hope that my memory doesn't leave me.  I am going to need all the help I can get!
Proverbs 3: 5-6 " Trust in the LORD with all your heart, do not lean on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."

Love to all,
