I am here in the infusion center, currently being observed after receiving my second treatment. Odd to have looked forward to something like this, I know, but I am thrilled to be dealing the cancer another blow.
If this cycle is anything like the last one, I can expect to sleep excessively for the next week to ten days and feel a bit like I have the flu. After that, I should feel a little better every day until I hit normal, about two weeks from today. Then, wait a week and start all over again. This will be my life for the next year or so, depending on how the cancer responds. And you know, it is a small price to pay for the possibility of getting my life back when it seemed not long ago there was little hope of this.
As I sit here I am struck once again by how fortunate I am in faith, marriage, family, friends,and doctors. When I have so much on my side, how can I lose?

Dear Suzanne,
As you are sitting in the Barcalounger, please know I am praying for you to make a complete recovery. You are a strong woman and I so admire you. Stay strong!
Love always, Sarah McCormick
I wish I was there w/ you! I'm sure the people that were there last time and there this time were happy to see you with someone a bit more quiet than me!!
I am thinking of you and praying for your recovery every day. I've asked my best girlfriends to pray for you too. There's another reason you can't lose - tons of people you don't even know are thinking of you and praying for you. Love, Maura
