    6 down 2 to go

    This week was my sister’s 6th chemo round…and as hard as it gets the further you go, the better it feels to know you are closer to the end! I say that as someone on the side lines of course, but she feels the same. Soon this stage of chemo will be behind us all.

    This week in the chemo room I leapt to cover up another with a warm blanket who was shivering … As Anna sat there sweating. The effects are so different person to person…round to round.

    We are riding ups with downs and at the same time know another treatment is coming…and with that, a few tough days.

    Anna continues to be a champ!….and equally as solid in strength are her four kids and husband. I have to say, I am so proud to be part of this bunch!

    One proud Auntie here.

      Go Auntie, Go!! You both are lucky to have each other – good – bad or otherwise – you are both there…there is nothing better in the world than knowing that someone is there for you. The most wonderful thing about this website is knowing how many others are there for you…and you can then share that with your sister, because I’m sure there is no one who knows you, who wouldn’t wish the same good fortune for Anna. Our thoughts and prayers are always with all of you… Love you lots!!!! Cathy and John
