A Fighter---Gwyn is going to the Cancer Treatment Centers Of America in Chicago on August 2nd for more treatments on her bone cancer. They will be putting her through several tests and then her and Robbin will be able to select an option for further treatment. She wants to keep all of her supporters informed so her nephew Jason has created this blog for her. I'm a person with lots of HOPE and want to share it with you! Thanks, Jason!!

Chemo & Zomeda Treatment-August 11, 2011
I am so glad this treatment is over!! And it wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. Patti, Rob, Robbin and I headed to Chicago August 9th with some things on our agenda. Wednesday we spent all day in Chicago walking lots and doing some real important shopping. You'll have to ask Patti about that!! It was so much fun and we found a new pizza restaurant Pizano's. You must go if you are around one of his restaurants. The next day we got to the hospital for my treatments early in the morning. My blood tests all showed that the markers are still going down. The day we got back home, I wasn't doing to bad. I did find strength to get my emails. It sure didn't last long though. The next day I was flat on my back and ended up staying there until wednesday(today). My muscles and bones were so sore and I couldn't even do much without getting dizzy and having major hot flashing! Yuk! Each day gives me more strength and less pain. Once again I have to say that all the aches and pains I'm going through are worth it. As God is my healer, I find strength in Him everyday. This is a very difficult treatment to go through and without my faith, it couldn't be done!!! Robbin is the best!! He continues to do laundry, clean, cook, and support everything I do. Thank You Robbin!! I thank all of you also for the support, thoughts, and prayers.
