The latest

Hello Everyone, 
So I feel very special because I get to blog today on my sisters mac! It makes me very happy! So I feel like it has been forever since my last blog so let me fill you in on what has happened lately! I was suppose to get my Chemo last Friday the 7th but my protein in my urine was too high. This is what tells the doctors that my kidneys are functioning good or bad. Which it was too high so I could not get it. So we returned this Friday and I had to do a 24 hour urine test which sounds so delightful let me tell you! It is where you have to collect your urine for a whole 24 hours which shows how your kidneys are functioning. So we went in to clinic and my counts were good and my kidney function was good! So I was able to get Chemo this week! My doctor told me and my mom Karen that he thought it would be good that I only get one more dose of the infusion of chemo. I will continue to take my daily oral chemo but the infusion is the one causing the kidney problems and heart problems. When I was in Memphis I got something that was called elongated q-t which is where the beats of the heart are longer than what they are suppose to be. When it is longer than what it is suppose to be I could just drop over dead at any moment. They fixed this by cutting my list of drugs in half that I cannot take like benadryl. This makes it very difficult when I have symptoms to find something to use to make me feel better. So with not getting this infusion my kidney function and my heart should get better! I have still been so tired and we have not figured out the cause except I am sure a lot of it is just from being on chemo for so long. I am very comfortable with the idea of giving my body a break. I have complete faith in my doctors and in Jesus. He has never failed me and always has my best interest at heart. Along with my doctors I know for a fact that he always has my best interest at heart. Switching the subject but I cannot believe that Christmas is 9 days away! I am so ready for snow!! Santa always makes a big visit to all the St. Jude patients at clinic! So I don't have much more to say! 
See you all next week!! 
Love you all!
