Crazy Cats and Bitty Kitties

Today was my monthly MRi. Good News! My oncologist called this afternoon to let us know that my scan from earlier today showed no signs of recurrence and that my brain is stable. Last Wednesday when I had my appointment with Dr. Robins I surprised him; my eyes had improved a lot, and I had been able to read 34 pages in a row without eye fatigue. I’ll have to tell him next Wednesday that I’ve been able to read even more since that night. I’m fighting like hell, and I’m slowly getting myself back.

We all know that I’m a bit of a crazy cat lady, so when I saw that my craft hero was going to be releasing Crazy Cat stamps, I freaked out. I had to have them! My friend Stephanie Hamen reached out to Tim and Mario to see if they could help me get my hands on the stamps (for which I would gladly pay). Tim and Mario are so nice and thoughtful! I had a package arrive today with the Crazy Cat stamps and a colorful note from Tim.

I opted for a late lunch and a nap when we got home from my MRI today, but tomorrow my hands will be covered in ink from playing with the crazy cat stamps. SQUEEP!

Fight like Hell.

P.s. I love our tiny foster kitties. They're a handful, but so cute and playful.

KITTENS!!!

Two weeks ago, we had to hold my infusion because of my lab results. My oncologist wasn't concerned about an additional week in between my infusions. They had to take me out of the study I was in because of that, but really that has no impact on my treatment. It actually gives us more flexibility if we need to tweak my dosages. It was nice to finally get some decent news today. My labs came back good, so I was able to get my infusions, as normal. The lidocaine actually worked today, which was a plus.

We got our new foster kittens on Tuesday with their mama. They came in to the shelter without names, so we got to name them. Mama’s name is Charlie, and her angels are Aladdin (Al), Jasmine, and Raja. They’re definitely in the flying kitten stage. They’re so dang cute, I can hardly handle it.

Fight like Hell.
