A life full of opportunities

I feel blessed. Blessed to be finished with chemo and blessed to have a full life ahead of me. It's nice to wake up and to know that I'm done. No more blood being drawn, no more bone drugs and best of all, no more chemo.

I'm nervous & scared. I know I'm strong but I still worry about next week. Tests, doctor visits and surgery. I feel confident the drug worked but it's in my nature to think about the what-ifs. I'm trying to table those thoughts for a week.

I'm party planning this week. The Dead Fred party is on. We bought close to 20 lbs of chicken yesterday. We are expecting almost 60 people for the picnic. The picnic will be a celebration of finishing chemo and a fundraiser for the Desmoid Tumor Research Foundation. I hope we raise over $1000 but it will probably be more like $500. A girl can dream, right? Pictures to be posted after the event. If my arm wasn't BROKEN I would craft up the picnic.
