Here we are again....

I have had a great week, as planned took Ethan out from summer camp and enjoy him every morning. We went painting and we did a really nice cup for daddy, it took us all morning to do it but we had a great time. We went bowling two mornings as we enjoyed so much the first one and we had two pool parties at our friends's house (thanks Marcela!). In the afternoons Ethan went to have more fun with Damaris (our nanny) and her son while mommy was getting a nap, visiting doctors and getting some quiet time. Thank you very much Jen and Marcela for all the help with Ethan this week, he had a great time!

I have been feeling great but getting tired really easy, still have been really strict on eating healthy thanks to my mom and Alberto and walking every night. I lost 5 pounds last week but manage to recover almost all of it this week so I feel back to normal for tomorrow.

Today the anxiety level has raised slightly, first my hair is starting falling off and my scalp hurts a lot, I have prepared myself for this moment but I still think is going to be emotional. I think tomorrow or Tuesday is the day that all will be coming off, I will post photos sometime this week. Part of me tells me that I should be happy that hair is fallng off as it means the drugs are doing their job...... Second my 2nd round of chemo is tomorrow at 8:30 am, doctor says that should be better as I know what to expect but I think because I know what is going to happen I am more anxious about it. I have been given one more drug for nausea and will be taking a total of 5 different drugs to help with it tomorrow, I just hope one of them does the trick!!
