Today the Treatment Begins!

I am scheduled for my first chemo treatment today.  Another adventure!  I have been working on the tips I've heard that help with the side effects-like drinking 3-4 quarts of water a day.  I really struggle remembering to drink enough water. I am using the alarms on my phone to remind be when one should finished, two, etc.
I've had a fun weekend.  Shannon and her family from Kelso, WA came  for their spring break this week.  Suzanna and family came on Sunday afternoon. It's been fun.  I attended Stake Council Mtg on Sunday-first meeting I've attended in over a month.  That felt good.  Shannon will be staying for a few more days while the rest of the family go to John's family in Idaho.
Yesterday Shannon and I went to the American Cancer Society's office and "shopped" for hats and a wig.  I found a cute wig and some hats/scarves that I liked.  I am working on letting go of my hair.  Getting the wig and scarves has helped.  So I am moving forward. 
A private site "Helping Sara" has been set up.  The purpose is to let whoever would like to help know what I will be needing like visits, rides, maybe a meal here and there.  When the need is posted anyone who is on the site will be emailed and can sign up for it if it works or if not that's fine.  It worked really well for a friend of Sheila's, so we are doing it too.  The invites to sign up haven't been set up yet, but they will be in the next week.  I don't know what I need, but expect to know better as treatment begins.  If you want to be included, let me know.
 Thanks again for you thoughts, prayers, and acts of kindness and love.
