The Power of the M Ring

Week 1 of my return to chemotherapy is in the books. I am highly anticipating that if there is any Multiple Myeloma left that it is crying for its mamma...who can't be found anywhere. To mix things up, I am trying a new visualization technique where I pretend I am Denard Robinson playing tackle football at recess with a bunch of third graders. The Myeloma being the third graders. I am also sporting my M-Ring for the first time since receiving it many years ago.



The biggest challenge right now is fatigue; especially the day of infusion (Tuesdays & Fridays). I can go from 60 to zero in 4.7 seconds. Cassie has been great though. She is really pushing me to have scheduled nap times to ensure that my body is able to recover from the intense treatment and also fight all the little bugs I am certain Ocean is bringing home from pre-school. Speaking of pre-school, Ocean is just loving it. Apart from his parents, his two favorite non-food things are people and projects; therefore, school is like Disneyland for this kid. It's also been pretty relaxing for mommy.
