Day after chemo

I forgot how crappy I feel the next day. I promised Travis I would help clean the basement and besides my head pounding every joint/muscle in my body hurts. I don't have any wheatgrass so that may be my main problem. I get some thursday but I should feel better by then anyways. Cheers

Beach, Birthday, Reunion...

We had such a great week. It was relaxing, fun, and I ran every morning on the beach. It was by far the best weather we have ever had down there and we had such a good time. Grandma Babs and Grandpa George came over for two nights, Ya Ya (nanny) was a huge help, and our friends came two nights. We had a great time with all our friends that come every year and of course my birthday was the best ever. It was the first time in a year that I drank and I made up for lost time. I thought I would be in the bathroom by 9 PM not feeling my best but I hung until 4 AM. Yeah for me! So many people wished me well, gave me cards, cool gifts, and Travis gave me the camera I have been wanting forever. It was fun meeting all of Travis' classmates (20 year reunion) and seeing old friends.

Overall our vacation was fabulous, turning 40 was awesome, and the reunion was a big success. Cant wait for the next 40 years.

So excited

This weekend channel 2 interviewed me for the news and since then I have had so many people ask for help. I am so excited that I get to help others because you are all helping me. I love this "pay it forward stuff"
Yeah

Come join us for Pizza on July 10th. Can't wait

Since the race...

Since the race Sammy and I went to DC with friends and had an incredible time. The weather was perfect and I was able to keep up with the girls.

I got home Saturday evening and flew to NY Sunday morning to see a Dr. who deals in all kinds of medicines. He has been known to really help people with stage 4 cancer. I am sifting thru the info as we speak.

Went to our friends cabin in the mountains this past weekend. Had a blast and Gavin was a riot. Did sleep much but making up for lost time.

Monday I was able to get chemo and the Benedril knocked me off my feet. I slept the entire 8 hours we were at Emory, then napped from 5-8, then went to sleep at 9. It is 5:30 and I am wide awake...wonder why.

Well that is it for now. Happy 4th of July

What a day

Okay, first the race was amazing, hot but amazing. About 250 ran and I cheered them all on. It was tiring but so fun.

That eveving we had my mom and travis' mom check everyone in and had amazing auction Items and a great raffle. The drinks were flowing and people from all aspects of our lives were there. It was like a wedding/reunion.

The next day everyone including Gavin slept in until 9:00.

We would like to thank everyone who volunteered, donated items, time, money and those who showed up. We felt so much love and raised $38,000 and counting. Were already getting excited about next year and how we can make it better. If you have any suggestions or want to donate or volunteer just shoot us an email.

Funny story...Malcolm (volunteer) asked if I saw the pregnant girl who was smoking...my mouth dropped opened and I was shocked. What he meant was pregnant and running really fast. Not smoking tabacco.

Two more days

Last years race had 80 people sign up and 350 ran the race. As of last night 200 have signed up...this maybe an incredible turn out. I'm so excited to see you all and we have had even more action items come in that are incredible. I'm sorry to announce that we only have 15 shirts left, but if your still interested go to www.rayofliferace.com and sign up to run/walk/crawl whatever and don't forget about the evening festivities at cocktail cove on Roswell from 5-9. Kids are welcome.

BTW since I started doing wheatgrass shots I have had very little sideeffects and have been fealing great. I started exercising even.

Hope to see everyone this weekend.
