More July Fun!

 I did it I made it so that you now can purchase a Persistent and Patient shirt (link is at the bottom). Growing up in Moorpark we always started July with the 3rd of July. That day I had my usual IVIG treatment, but also went with my dad to his friends very nice house for a BBQ and can see the fireworks from their backyard. Started this month with the typical 4th celebration, it was great at my Aunt Jackie’s house! Went over later in the day and got to see her granddaughters who live in Minnesota. We spent the day playing right, left, center. It was a lot of fun, but we didn’t use any money. You can see the fireworks kind of from their backyard. Set off sparklers and other fun things. But the month was great with chemo on the 10th and kick off to selling my T- shirt! Thank you to everyone that supported me and bought a shirt! Chemo has been difficult but I have an amazing support system. I was retaken to the infusion center and had to switch rooms 3 times, until they found one for me with a working bathroom 🙏🏻 a necessity! The day is long, with a 2 hour bag of fluids and meds, then a few other things they mix in, then the hour Cytoxan, more meds, and finishing with a 3 to 4 hour bag of other fluids. The day is long but I continue to work out and I swim as much as I can. Later on that month I was able to see my dads side of the family and hangout with my cousin, aunts, and brothers. 💗

Made a shirt!

June has been a crazy month, but so many great things have happened! Started off the month with lots of ideas! The month of June we got to celebrate Brad for his 25th birthday! We went to a great lunch at Islands, played a round of bowling and a trip to the Moorpark College teaching zoo. The month was full of cake, swimming, and adventures! I did have to get a few IV treatments, but still had one of the best and most fun months! I'm still figuring out how many more chemo treatments I’ll need to have, but everything is moving in the right direction! The most exciting news is by the end of June I came up with a design for a shirt, that hopefully I will be able to figure out how to get a link for it, so that anyone who would be interested in purchasing one can. It is just a reminder for anyone (including myself)  that they can do whatever they set their minds to if they don’t give up. More on the shirt by the end of July!
