...Sheri is one-quarter of the way done with her treatments!!
As you may recall, Sheri is scheduled to have 12 Chemotherapy treatments. Seriously, how fast did the first quarter go for all of you? One. Check. Two. Check-check. Three. Check-check-check! That's right baby...Sheri is now in the single digits.
Okay, perhaps this is all flying by a bit faster for those of us NOT having to deal with actually having cancer. Although it's not really flying by for Sheri, she is happy to see three treatments checked off the list.
The side-effects are still present -- darn the darn! Fatigue? Yes. Nausea? Yes. Mouth-sores? Yes. Back pain? Yes. Bone pain? Yes. But, all of these mean the medicine is working, so Sheri deals with it. And, if I do say so myself, she deals with it better than one can imagine!
#1 To Do List Item: Be grateful that she was blessed with so much GOOLD hair! Even though chemotherapy is causing it to fall out, she still has more hair than the average girl!! Who knows, perhaps a wig will never be needed... =)

Awesome!!! That is so great- the hair and the treatments! Wow, with the way you are no one would even know all that you are dealing with, especially the mouth sores!!! Well, maybe you should tell us which symptom is worse. Anyway, congrats on getting closer and I will let you know if I notice a difference in that hair, but it still looks great!
Only 12 more to go... that seems so small right? I hope you get a treatment once a week so that this means only a couple more months. Sounds like this is a total pain, but that the treatment is working. Life is so crazy... life is what happens while you are busy making other plans. Keep the faith Sheri... you are still in my daily prayers!
love you!

Love the picture of you guys at the wedding. That is a really cute one. Yay for being 1/4 way through your're treatments. You've been so strong through all of this!
