Happy Birthday Matt!!!!

Matt's Birthday was yesterday.  He is 13 now!  I can't believe how quickly time has gone by.  I love you little man. :-D  It was a fun weekend.  We went to my brothers (both of them) and had BBQ & cake.  My friend Margaret came over and Cathy (our neice) came in late from Lubbock but was still able to join us.  Mark sang us a few songs - he was great!!  He and his bandmates have a gig at EMO's, sometime in September, which apparently is a really big thing for their type of music- so congrats to the group,  Oh No the Radio!!  Here is a list of their upcoming gigs in case anyone can make it out to support them -

Went to work today.  I felt pretty good, a little tired, but pretty good.  I had to leave a little early to see my surgeon.  Still retaining fluid in the right surgery sight, so I am having to go in and get it drained.  Next appointment for that is Thursday!  ARGH!  The plus side, I love my doctor--if you ever need surgery go to Dr. Jack Walzel!  He is awesome! 

I am hoping I will feel well enough to work the whole week, since my next round of chemo is next Tuesday.  I did fairly well with the chemo except that I was tired, pretty much the entire cycle.  I never throw up, just felt like a few times.  I took the meds the Dr gave me so that helped a lot. The worst I felt was the first weekend after the chemo..I had major heartburn.  It was awful, worse than when I was pregnant with the kids. I went by the doctors office and got some good meds for that too.  I go tomorrow to get my labs done so they can see where my white blood count is.  Last week it was just a little low, so the Nurse practitioner said it would be lower this week.  I don't know what they do if it is too low??

Have a great week!
Hugs,
Yolanda

P.S. Good luck to my lil sis - Yvonne - Hope you did well on your exam!
