1 Month Today

Hard to believe it's been one month today since Beth had her surgery and she's feeling better and working hard to get those arms over her head!!!  

Beth met with the oncologist today and it's definite - Beth will  begin chemo in a little over 2 weeks on Monday, March 23rd and she's been told to plan on at least 15 months of chemo..

We all knew this what was anticipated from discussions prior to Beth's surgery, but I think we had all hoped that just maybe it wouldn't be necessary..  But we now know it was wishful thinking, so now the plan is to concentrate on preparing for the next stage of her journey..

The chemo will be strong and there's no doubt that Beth will lose her hair and despite her smiles she has to be overwhelmed.  But as is usual with Beth, she's making jokes.  She has a phenomenal attitude and with the continued of support from everyone, there's no doubt she's going to beat this!!!  

So continue to keep her and her family in your prayers and we'll keep you updated...
