My first week of R&C is complete. I don't have to take it on the weekends, or holidays when the Radiation crew has the day off at the hospital. What I continue to do is the alternative healing treatments, including prayer, visualization, rebounding and Chinese herbal teas, in which I'll touch on in the coming days.
We've had Andrea home from college for the weekend, so it was wonderful having both girls in the house again. She leaves this afternoon, and will be gone for a much longer period of time as she has been cast in a main-stage production ("Elephant Man") at UNC. It's extremely rare to be cast as a Freshman, so she is very honored and excited!
A Note from Debbie.....
It's been one amazing year and now I am happy to say I am cured. Please see below for my journey through cancer....
Hello my friends, on August 4, 2008 I was diagnosed with Cancer.
As you can imagine the initial shock was great, for me, Doug and our girls. We've now got a great team of colorectal doctors, learned a lot about what is ahead, and have gotten our minds wrapped around it. So now we are in the "let's get this thing out of here" mode and feel very confident that, with prayers and support of my friends and family, by next Spring I will celebrate being cancer-free.

Congratulations on the completion of your first week! You certainly have the right attitude and fight plan. I am so proud of you and all you have accomplished, keep it up. YOU GO GIRL! All my love and devotion Sister Laurey (Big props to Andrea too)
I'll try yet again to post a comment. Debbie, my thoughts and prayers are centered around you. Like Laurey said, you have the right attitude, you go girl. You SO amaze me, you are awsome. Please, keep up the FG! I love you baby sister! Kathy.
Debbie, you and Doug are really awesome. I have been following your blog every day. I agree with so many others, you should write a book. I hope you liked the things I sent to you. Keep up the good work. We love you.

Debbie,
I just read in your Oct newsletter about your diagnosis, etc... and wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you. Your Aug 20 post is my favorite -that God would send you someone who has "been there" to chat with - what a blessing! :)
