A good end to the night

Went to band practice for the first time tonight after surgery.  Sat for most of it and it was a little weird being so mellow with the valium but it felt AWESOME to sing again.  It’s funny how those little normal things can help you mentally.  I may not be able to dance on stage much but we have plans for significant rest before the shows to ensure I can still sing with them.  No chemo gonna stop this girl from pretending to be a rock star! 🙂

Now after a very short practice I am whopped!  Headed to bed for another fun day tomorrow.  Meeting with the Occupational Therapist tomorrow to make sure I am exercising and doing what I need to not get Lymphedema and we have our chemo class right after to learn how to best manage the side effects.  Looking forward to my pillow. 🙂

I am so happy that you are singing with the band again. I was wondering how that was going to work out for you. Keep on singing my dear. You are awesome. I love you. Mom
