Rest and Relaxation--- With a little exerise thrown in....

This week has been filled with rest and relaxation. I find myself not sleeping at night. All kinds of things are going through my head. Because of the lack of sleep, I find myself sleeping throughout the day. I am going for walks (at least two a day).

I went to get measured for the radiation today. I have to have my arms above my head for at least two hours....... I can't get me arms above my head yet. I have to do more exercises to make my incision more pliable. So they are going to do the measuring next Wednesday... and I will start radiation the next Monday. This will also give me a few more days after my surgery to heal.

I am so excited to see my mom and dad. I haven't seen them for about three months. They are coming on mom's birthday, which is this Saturday the 4th of June. They are not staying long ---just for a visit and possibly lunch.

I am feeling really good. I am a little tired but, all in all I feel really good. My incisions are healing really well. I will be ready for all the excitement next week.

Thank you all for the prayer, for the flowers, cards, dinners, lawn care etc. etc. etc. I can never repay the love you have show me the past 6 months. It was cute when the flower shop dude came to my house and said, "More flowers for Gloria Richardson" we just laughed! My sister, Sherry has sent me cards every day for the past three weeks. It is fun to go get mail and know you have more than just bills. Thanks sis!!
