6th Chemo Treatment

Well I had my 6th chemo treatment on Tues (6/30/09). And this new drug they put me on, apparently you can have an allergic reaction to it, so before they start with the drug, I have to get a dose of benadryl. And when I say dose, I mean big dose. One thing I never knew is that benadryl will make you drowsy. I mean I be so out of it, that my treatments last about 3 hours or so, and I sleep for 2 1/2 hours. I only get up to use the bathroom, I mean I can't even keep my eyes open.

Well with 6 treatments down and 2 more to go. That means I will have to get ready for surgery sometime in Aug. And I'm not looking forward to that at all. Please keep me in your prayers. And I will try to continue to be strong.

  1. Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou

    Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.

    I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
    But when I start to tell them,
    They think I'm telling lies.

    I say,
    It's in the reach of my arms
    The span of my hips,
    The stride of my step,
    The curl of my lips.

    I'm a woman
    Phenomenally.

    Phenomenal woman,
    That's me.


    I walk into a room
    Just as cool as you please,
    And to a man,
    The fellows stand or
    Fall down on their knees.

    Then they swarm around me,
    A hive of honey bees.

    I say,
    It's the fire in my eyes,
    And the flash of my teeth,
    The swing in my waist,
    And the joy in my feet.

    I'm a woman
    Phenomenally.

    Phenomenal woman,
    That's me.


    Men themselves have wondered
    What they see in me.

    They try so much
    But they can't touch
    My inner mystery.

    When I try to show them
    They say they still can't see.

    I say,
    It's in the arch of my back,
    The sun of my smile,
    The ride of my breasts,
    The grace of my style.

    I'm a woman

    Phenomenally.

    Phenomenal woman,
    That's me.


    Now you understand
    Just why my head's not bowed.

    I don't shout or jump about
    Or have to talk real loud.

    When you see me passing
    It ought to make you proud.

    I say,
    It's in the click of my heels,
    The bend of my hair,
    the palm of my hand,
    The need of my care,
    'Cause I'm a woman
    Phenomenally.

    Phenomenal woman,
    That's me.
