Ready for the week!

It has been a good week but I am ready for Tuesday to get here.  I will have my last infusion of the two chemo drugs I have been taking.  I think it will be my strawberry malt this time instead of my red devil.
With this being said I have no idea when I will post this week.  Each treatment has been different.  Of course I will be on the steroids thru Friday and then the crash hits.  Since the chemo is to have a cumulative effect I may just sleep my way through a few days.

My fourth of July was absolutely terrific.  If you are ever in need of a great place to stay the Courtyard by Marriott in Briarcliff in Kansas City was awesome.  It is a new facility but more than that they had a very caring staff.  Upon our arrival on Thursday we were greeted by a smiling face.  She obviously was the young lady Rick spoke with as he was making the reservation. She said they had tried to pick out the best room with a view of the city fireworks.  When we went into the room they had placed a gift bag in the room with water and healthy snacks along with a handwritten note hoping we enjoyed our stay and a two complimentary breakfast coupons.  The view was terrific.  It was so nice to watch the fireworks and not have the hassle of traffic or people.  Ricky did good:)

Yesterday Karlene and family came over for dinner.  It will be a few days before I can be around my Petrie dish again so I got my "grandson fix".

Tomorrow will be my hydrate day.  Then I will cross one more thing off my list on this journey! After my first treatment I thought I would never be able to complete these infusions.  With God's hand holding mine I have made it!  God is good!
