This week I'll have my 3rd echo to check my heart for any effects of chemo and herceptin on it. I'll also have my first infusion of Herceptin alone on Wed.
It was a beautiful weekend, in the 60's! Sam and I took a walk around the lake after church. We went to a beautiful wedding on Sat. Alex and Yeon Hee's. I usually tear up at weddings because I get all sappy, but I teared up for different reasons this time. The pastor was talking about the different stages husbands and wives go through in their marriage. In the 30's, the wife concentrates on the family while the husband tries to make an impact on the world around him. She gets mad at the husband for not focusing on the home. In the 60's and 70's, the wife becomes more mindful of herself, making friends, and going out while the husband retires and starts becoming more dependent on his wife, clinging to her blanket, etc. Well, I started thinking what are the chances that Sam and I will make it to our 70's? Not so good. It was a downer of a thought that I probably wouldn't have thought last year. Also, there was a tribute to the parents part that left me wistful.
The dancing and the food were great, and by the end of the night, I was pretty content. I guess I'll just take it one wedding at a time.
