just keeps going and going…
November 24, 2009
it’s been a couple of months since i last posted an update on my progress here and that’s because everything has been fine and uneventful. i guess i haven’t known what to say.
today is the last day of my fifth chemo cycle. i’ve gotten used to distracting myself from feeling nauseous, accepting it when i’m tired, and making the most of the time i have to feel all right. still i don’t like it very much.
this thanksgiving will be the fifth anniversary from when i first presented with symptoms and my family realized that something was wrong. i am so happy to be going strong- and to be a part of it still.

Oh, Cecily, such good news. Five years!!! What a courageous young woman you are! I am so happy you are doing so well. Our love and thoughts remain with you!
I had a bit of skin cancer removed from my face a few weeks – basal cell carcinoma. The dermatologist used the MOHS procedures, less invasive and they are able to keep removing tissue and testing until they get it all, then they sew you up. So……more sunscreen is definitely in my future.
Hope you enjoy a blessed Christmas. Love, Sharon and Dan
P.S. We adopted an Australian Shepherd and names him Luke!! We love him.
