The Limbo Dance!

So, Forrest is supposed to go in tomorrow.  Bloodwork, chemo...  The basics, right?  He's at work right now.  Just texted me that he doesn't want to go.  Said to re-schedule for another 2 weeks. 

I tried to ask him to at least go in for bloodwork.  He says it's a waste of time.  :(  Boo!  Now, I've never claimed to be a smart woman, but I'm smart enough to know I can't make him do anything.  In fact, the more I'd push, the more resistant he'll be. 

Is it bad that I really want the numbers??  We didn't get a CEA last time, because Forrest's blood wouldn't clot.  He didn't want to get poked again.  I was curious what tomorrow's number would be after 2 weeks of no chemo.  His numbers have been climbing.  A thought that scares me more than I'm willing to admit.  Yet, Forrest never seems to really care about it.  I really wanted to know how much of a difference this treatment off affected him.  :(  Oh well...

What a place to be, right?  Right, smack dab in the the middle of it all.  Yet, not really having an ounce of control over what is happening.  Yuck!  Not my favorite place to be. 

Let's see...  On a happier note, our state taxes were deposited into our checking account!  Now there is less worry that we'll bounce checks  before payday Friday!  Wait, is that a happy thought?  Or just depressing that we really were that close to bouncing?  I pick happy!  A nice surprise!  Now that we could afford to pay the co-pay tomorrow, we don't have to.  Looks like I'll have an extra day off!  I say I go spend the money I would have used on the co-pay on a new, fabulous pair of earrings!  Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!  It sounded like a good idea!  Lol!!  :)

Well, I'm going to sign off...  I have a website to check out...  I have a wonderful friend who knows I've never had a professional massage.  She sent me a gift certificate the other day!  How fun is that?  I'm going to go look at the website, see what they've got, and pretend I'd have time to get a massage this weekend!  :) 

Have a great night all!  :)

  1. try to squeeze in the massage if you can Julie and don't think about CEA while you are there!

    Wishing you peace of mind and positive thoughts.
