We're on the road to nowhere, I mean somewhere!
Not sure what to write. I am tired and feel a little stuck. where is my next road? Where do I turn next? I feel like I am at a fork in the road. Like Fozzie and Kermie as they're, "movin' right along". The first road I am taking is adding on 3 more days of Cyberknife. The doctor recommended I add on 3 more days for maximum treatment. So I agreed to this new road, keeping me away from home until, August, 1st. I also felt a lump in my clavicle lymph area and shared this with my cyberknife doctor. He was concerned and encouraged me to share this with my oncology doctor and start a systemic chemotherapy as soon as Cyberknife was finished. The systemic chemotherapy was always a part of the plan but it wasn't in the near future. Luckily the medicine is a dose that is supposedly "light". So maybe it will be like driving the Oregon coast, not real warm but has pretty views.
My friend Adria told me about your blog and I've been reading for a few weeks now. I was a year ahead of you at Oly. You are on my mind so much, and I have been sending you love, light, and good vibes since I heard about your ongoing cancer battle. The way you describe your treatments brings it to a level I can understand and empathize with. What a brave woman you are! I am rooting for you, Alexis, and for your whole family. ~Christa (Sheafe) Richardson
