Little miss chubby cheeks is here

Well the steroids have had their desired effect on the water retention. Still only 50% on correcting the balance issues. This is also week 2 of chemo. No symptoms of hand and foot redness, tingling, burning or peeling. I am being really pro-active with special attention to creams on my feet and hands to keep them in good shape. An ounce of prevention.... If the symptoms show up we are supposed to go to the Horse Store and buy something called Bag Balm. Now doesn't that have an appealing name.

My nails are another issue. They are just peeling and breaking. I am going to find a good OPI polish that might give them some strength and durability. My toe nails are still splitting lengthwise which is a problem in some of my shoes. But considering these are small hurdles to deal with.

This is a nice quiet week. Jessica has swim lessons and then we have our afternoons free. My sister and her 2 children come on Saturday for about 10 days and we will celebrate Sandy's birthday on the 30th.

So for now I am just enjoying the summer weather.

Bye for now.
