Decisions...
We've decided (my husband and I) for me to stop taking the chemo/ immunosuppressives . They have really made me sick and it's just not the way we want me to live. There was a time I didn't take them because they caused some cancer (cervical) and I didn't want to get any other cancer. During that time, I felt really good and then a tragedy happened in our family and that's when I started getting worse again. The medicine has caused anemia and me feeling sick to my stomach ALL the time. I can't live that way. I am going to continue to take the experimental supplement and the Mestinon for neuromuscular function and see where that leads. I think it will be a great benefit to be off that chemo drug. I feel like I have been poisoning myself with it for so long and when they doubled it, well, that was just too much. Today is the first full day without it. It may take a good week to get it out of my system to where I feel better. I'm hoping that happens ...
My favorite sweet treat...it's so hard to pick a favorite but I think it is a really good homemade chocolate chip cookie!

Love being in control of what I eat and I feel proud to plant and watch grow what I eat.

ReplyDeleteWhat I seem to like best is learning to live simply, collecting eggs, raising a garden, trying out new recipes. I only wish I could stay home and care for my family full time, I would get a milk cow.
