All is well at the Evans house! Yesterday was a great day, I felt great and got to do some things that are out of my daily routine of just hanging out. Dad, Kenz, and I drove Bianca to the airport to head back home. Afterwards, we drove around downtown looking for a Vietnamese restaurant that serves pho. We found one and stopped in for lunch! Those of you not familiar with pho...I HIGHLY recommend checking it out, yum! Afterwards, we headed home and watched some movies.
I am feeling great, I am not having weird cravings for food and feel a bit more renewed energy! I am about to hope in the shower and get some things organized for tomorrow, as I head back to the cline for my second chemo treatment. This one is supposed to be a little easier to handle but no chemo is fun. I will be in the hospital from Wednesday through probably Saturday if all goes well. This will be my routine for the next three weeks in a row. A few days in the hospital for treatment, and a few days at home. I am scheduled to receive the chemo the next three Wednesdays. The routine is probably a good thing, but I'm not looking forward to it. I just have to put my head down and push through...only 25 or so more weeks! Ha!
Hope all is well with all of you. Thank you all for the kind support and care, even just reading this blog. Have a wonderful day and keep your heads up! Tomorrow is always a new day, just keep pushing through!
That sounds like a very scheduled week! Just keep finding the bright side in things, as I know you will. Like you said, just put your head down and push through it FULL FORCE! If you do that, time will fly and you will be back to your normal before you know it.

So you don't know me. I actually went to high school with Candace Ruocco and even didn't know her that well, we are simply friends on facebook. Candace posted your blog to facebook today and mentioned what an incredibly person you are. She said "Thank you Alex for posting this! TO ALL MY FB FRIENDS: if you're feeling stressed, upset, confused, or discouraged - PLEASE take two minutes and read this blog entry!! This amazing girl, Emily Evans, is an absolute inspiration. Her wisdom and compassion will change your perspective... Guaranteed. Thank you, for sharing your journey, Emily!! "
ReplyDeleteI began to read your blog and before I knew it I have spent about 2 hours reading it. What an incredible person you are! What an incredibly journey you are on and what a great spirit you have. I am more than impressed with you and you brightened my day (bet you didn't know you could brighten some random stranger's day, did you?) I just wanted to say thank you and tell you that I hope you keep improving and stay strong. I will be thinking about you....even though I know we don't know each other.
:) I know you made me smile today!
