Hydrea/Silver Dollar City

Shazam! Things have moved a bit faster than I was previously told. My doctor called yesterday and decided to have me go ahead and start my chemo. So, I just took the first pill of Hydrea (Hydroxyurea). I'll take one every day. According to what I've been told I will be on this the rest of my life since HES doesn't go into remission and isn't curable. I'm still being weaned off the prednisone. I'm hoping that this doesn't make me sick. I'm sure that only time will tell.

On a brighter note...
I took the kids to Silver Dollar City today. They had a lot of fun. We got season passes so we plan to go back several times this year. The boys really liked the rides Wildfire and Powder Keg. Emalee and I rode some kiddy rides and she had fun. We got rained out at about 2:30, but didn't leave the park w/o first eating a funnel cake! I forgot to take my camera, although I'm glad about that since I didn't have much storage space for it. Next time I'll take my fanny pack so my money, phone and camera are all secure and in one spot!
