The Plan

Hello everyone! We at the Hamm House are all good and excited to be able to enjoy being outdoors a little. Just thought id give a quick update on what we decided. So I had chemo last week and was suppose to have it again today but my blood was not strong enough so will try again next week. Then we will do chemo again in May unless a certain hockey team is playing in the M Cup and we may forgo the chemo to support that unsaid team. You may note I'm nervous of the hockey Gods. hahhahaaha  Was a billet Mom long enough to learn about them   In saying all that, then I would plan to not have chemo in June and July. I feel comfortable with that decision and that length of time as does my family. I also decided I would have my blood done monthly just to stay on top of things. This is a far cry from what I was thinking a month ago but think its probably the best plan. I wish you all a happy spring. Enjoy each and every day and tell those you love just how much every chance you can. Keeping you in the loop.   Always, Donna

So Many Blessings!

Hello everyone. All is good at the Hamm House. I'm feeling pretty good again but the last few chemos had me laying pretty quiet for Easter holiday. We were together as a family on the Monday and the bunny visited our little monkies.
I had my CT scan and met with Winnipeg yesterday. It appears there is no growth to the cancer...its stable. This is good news. The chemo is keeping it at bay. The Drs are concerned about how hard the chemo is on me both mentally and physically and suggested I might be ready for a drug holiday. This means I would not have chemo for a period of time that I choose unless symptoms appeared. This also means I would have lots of time to visit you all and do a little shopping t Winners!!! I'm nervous to not have the chemo but sure would enjoy some time away from this cancer regime. I will do some soul searching and meet with my Dr in Brandon on Wednesday and decide on a plan.
Thanks for my dear friends and family who keep thinking of our family and helping us through this journey. Much love and thanks Keeping you in the loop Always Donna
