Hi everyone! I even get emotional just trying to type this message. I can't begin to thank everyone enough for all of your messages, acts, thoughts, and prayers. I truly can feel all of your love and it helps more than you will ever know. I have the MOST awesome family and friends - I couldn't ask for more. Well - so far chemo hasn't been too terrible - I haven't had too many side effects - mostly some stomache problems, fatigue and lack of appetite. But I keep a daily record of how I feel to keep the docs posted. The hair hasn't started to fall out yet, but will probably soon. Kelsey has offered to shave her head with me - so we'll see!!! Kels has been my rock through this and I love her to pieces!!!! My cough is starting to get a little better - hopefully this is a sign of the tumors shrinking. Tomorrow I have another catscan to determine whether or not they have begun to shrink so that the radiation doc. can shrink the area being exposed. So pray and envision SHRINKING!!! I also have my 2nd dose of chemo tomorrow - it stays in your body and keeps working for a pretty long period of time. I'm not sure yet if they will up my dosage or not, last Mon. they started me on a pretty low dose to see how I'd do. We'll keep you posted on what we find out. I love you all sooooooo much!
Love, Angie

Dearest Angie,
I can't believe my very best girlfriend from grad school is sick. It just breaks my heart to think of you in any type of pain or suffering. But, after being with you through Maddie's birth and tough start, I know you can get through anything. This holds especially true because of your fantastic husband. He is so wonderful and caring and you are lucky to have him. Mom and I are planning a trip to see you in January, schedule permitting. We'll help you in any way possible. We can't wait to see the kids. How can it be only 3 years since we were last out there? It seems like so much longer. I love you all very much and you are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. Love you bunches, Susi
Hi Angie
Happy to hear your treatment hasn't been too bad...so far, and hopefully it will continue to be bearable. I was also encouraged to hear you are absorbing the support from those around you, and you sound positive which is is wonderful. Keep going strong.
Neal
