So, Wednesday I started my second round of this second battle. I felt pretty good Wednesday evening and even pretty good Thursday during the day. Thursday night I started to feel really crappy. I had major back pain...like to the point where I threw up it was so great. I was finally able to keep some vicodin and sleeping pills down, so I ended up getting a pretty good night's sleep.
I made it to school today. I was tired and just pretty much out of it. I felt the effects of the chemo coming on about 2pm. I started taking tylenol to try to offset the bone pain and took a nap when I got home from school.
I feel like it is going to be a very long weekend because I am pretty uncomfortable already. My lower back hurts, my head hurts, my neck hurts, I'm not hungry, and I'm tired. I just feel like I am falling apart.
I keep asking myself why I have to go through this. Why is God allowing me to deal with such a tough situation? I'm trying so hard to stay positive, but sometimes I just can't do it. Sometimes I just don't feel like there is any hope. Sometimes I just feel so alone.
I know that I am not alone though. I know that God is with me no matter what. I know that He walks with me every step of the way and when I cannot walk on my own, He carries me through. I have to remember that as I am feeling like there is no hope, as I am feeling as if the pain will never go away, as I am feeling like I will never get sleep. At times, it is very tough to remember, but something always triggers the thought. Honestly, I could not go through this all by myself. I don't know how people who don't believe or have faith go about this alone!
Please pray for me! Thank you so much!

Mother Teresa was once quoted as saying, "I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much." I'm sure you feel that way at times also!
There is hope! When the world says "give up" hope whispers "try it one more time!"--Wow, what a great quote where have I seen that before:-)
Love ya, Michelle
Hi Sheri-
I'm trying to come up with a great quote like the comments before. I'm just not that smart. :) Know that you are not alone. Hang in there. We're thinking of you everyday.--Laura
sher-bear,
Don't give up...don't ever give up! You have inspired us all.
Sheri I am praying for you. I do everyday. You are not alone when you have faith. You also have so many friends who love you.
Love, Peg
Hey Sheri-
Hang in there!Your faith always inspires even me--Have faith in the rest of us too. Lean on all the people who are here for you. Call anytime to laugh, cry, yell, or scream...and I really do mean anytime.

ah sweet girl..
I will be praying steadfastly for you. I am so sorry you have to go through this. I know you know that our Lord loves you just so much and even in this He is there.
Alright my little Sheri - This reply is proof that there must be such a thing as divine intervention if I was able to find my way through this web site all by myself, and locate a spot to leave you a message!! Wonders and miracles never cease! You hang in there and know that you are loved and thought about every day by so many people - more than you can possibly imagine. I have some really awesome relatives/friends "upstairs" that are in in your corner sending lots of positive energy your way! You are always in my prayers. Keep fighting- you'll beat this. love ya, Reenie P.S> What the heck are HTML tags anyway?
