Welcome Family and Friends to "What's the latest with Sara! " blog !

Since I have been diagnosed with breast cancer, I have been told numerous times that I am on a journey. I have known for almost that long that I am not alone on the journey. I learned quite awhile back that what happens to one also impacts all of those in that person's life in varying degrees.
The purpose of this blog is to allow you to check in whenever you have the time to see what the latest is. I know that I need you-your love, prayers, testimonies, and support. I am richly blessed with loving, caring, amazing family and friends. I am so grateful for you. Thank you for your part on this journey.

Update

Originally when I wasn't able to have my chemo treatments, I thought I would feel a lot better.  I did feel better in ways, but I didn't in others.  Then my daughters pointed out that I was sick-not enough white blood cells.  Oh, yes!  Since I have been having the daily shots, I have noticed more congestion and some feelings like I had following the first part of chemo when I had to go back in the next day for a shot to help boost the white blood count, but it has been minimal.  I am grateful.  I certainly hope the white blood count is higher this week.  They will draw blood and check it on Monday.
Shannon and her family were with us a little over 3 weeks.  It was good to have them.   They left early Wednesday morning.  It is quieter without them and I do miss them.  They were very helpful in keeping things going here and it was good to have people coming and going.  Now I need to adjust to a different lifestyle again.
 I am enjoying the fresh vegetables from my garden boxes.
I go out about 7:30 or 8 while it is still cooler to water.  It is good to have it do,
but some mornings I am pretty tired when I get back inside.
