Chemo Treat # 4 Day 3

Good Morning all, I hope everyone is doing great. I am doing okay so far. Had my 4th Chemo treat on Wednesday. Woke up and felt ok on Thursday and went to work. Left work around 2:30pm and went to the doc office for my Neulasta shot then came home and went to bed pretty early. Mom came over and spent the entire day with me Friday and it was great. I felt pretty good most of the day. The bad taste in  my mouth is back of course, but so far no thrush yet. Let's pray that does not return. Mom and I talked and laughed and went through some pics. I love spending time with my Momma. I never seem to have enough time with her though. It seems the more I get the more I want. My Momma is the best listener in the whole wide world. She just lets you talk and talk and never minds the subject. Good thing she doesn't charge a fee. I know this probably isn't the place, but I really want everyone to know how much my Momma means to me.. she is the most amazing woman I have ever met. She is everything I always wanted to be and more. I know that she is a big part of who I am today and that is saying a lot considering what we both have been through in our lives. By watching her deal with the trials and tribulations in her life she has taught me how to deal with my own. If not for her I am not sure how I would what I am going through today. She taught us as young girls to be strong, honest, loyal, independant, true and God loving woman. She taught us that we were never any better than others and that no one was any better than us. She taught us that sometimes life isn't fair, but ya pick yourself up, dust yourself off and move on with your head held high. I am so proud of the woman I am today and without Momma I would not be that woman. She is and always will be the wind beneath my wings... I truly wish everyone could have a Mom like mine.. I thank God every day that he put me in her life and her in mine. That he watched over us and never gave up pushing us to have what we have today...I would like to share one last thing about my Mom before I go...I know she doesn't really like country music much, but there is this one song that always reminds me of my Mom and each time I hear it I cry like a baby because she is an eagle when flys and I admire, respect and love her so much.  I hope you don't mind, but thought I would leave you all with the words to this song. If you have a Momma like mine.. call her or go see her... tell her what an amazing woman she is and how blessed you are to have her in your life. I know I am and I thank you Lord for allowing me to spend this prescious time with her.

She's been there, God knows, she's been there
She has seen and done it all
She's a woman, she know how to
Dish it out or take it all
Her heart's as soft as feathers
Still she weathers stormy skies
And she's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies

A kaleidoscope of colors
You can toss her around and round
You can keep her in your vision
But you'll never keep her down
She's a lover, she's a mother
She's a friend and she's a wife
And she's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies

Gentle as the sweet magnolia
Strong as steel, her faith and pride
She's an everlasting shoulder
She's the leaning post of life
She hurts deep and when she weeps
She's just as fragile as a child
And she's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies

She's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies
Oh, bless her, Lord
She's an eagle when she flies
