Erika's Treatment Update -- Week 35

Hi!

Hope you all had a nice Valentine's Day! Chris and I had no intentions to do anything special or go out, however at the last minute we decided to try out our favorite Japanese restaurant and it was empty so we had a lovely dinner after all. After that we went to See's Candies and I got a 1 lb box of my favorite chocolates...most of which are already gone by now! Yummy!

I really don't have much of an update in terms of my treatment. Today I had my 10th round of chemo which went smoothly as usual. I of course got the usual fevers that are accompanied by it, but this time they didn't exceed 100F and I felt fine for the most part. I think Chris is relieved that he doesn't have to stay up the entire night and take care of me! I'll be back at Stanford on March 2nd for my 11th round of treatment as well as visits with my doctor's and a chest x-ray.

Besides the usual staying at home and watching TV, I've been trying to find some things to keep me entertained. I've been taking a couple of scrapbooking classes, tap dance classes, and Chris and I have even started to go on daily walks. The TNT Spring season has started and it has given me motivation to get moving again.

For those of you that have next Monday off, have a great 3-day weekend!
