Hard Week…

This is one of those weeks that I cannot fully put into words… It was at the level of going through a stem cell transplant without the morphine.

I finished my second full week of SAHA on Tuesday (10/31) and my with the first cycle complete. I thought I was going to rest comfortably the remainder of the week. However, I cannot recall being this sick in years, I’ve lost fifteen pounds in 14 days. My potassium level dropped so severely they’ve given me infusions and I’ve been so weak I’ve needed assistance just getting around the house.

Some goods news, I woke up this morning feeling a little better. Hopefully, I will gain some much needed strength in the coming days, as start the second cycle of SAHA on Tuesday morning.

For now, I can walk, but I’m weak, I can move, but I do so slowly…However, I can still Fight, and I do so 2 Win.

I appreciate your continued prayers and I’m touched by your love.
