Weekends go too fast!

Gosh I had forgotten how fast the weekends go by when I am working! I enjoy the time at home with my family so much and combining that with getting lots of cleaning, grocery shopping, etc. it just flies by! I have been feeling about the same but every day am able to eat more and definitely have more of an appetite. It is so hit or miss what will cause vomiting- today it happened to be brushing my teeth of all things! Yesterday I was able to keep pizza down at dinner but got sick after rice at lunch. Ugh. Oh well at least I am able to start eating foods with taste from time to time. I have noticed now that if my stomach gets too empty I also start getting nauseous and that is when the dry heaving is usually the worst so I will need to stay on top of that. Last week I did pretty well at work although it really wore me out. I did get sick at school twice- once right before open house night but that's not bad. Tomorrow is my first day with students so I am nervous and anxious to see what this new position brings. Hopefully I can keep my sickness in check. Tomorrow after school my nurse will be coming to do my weekly blood draw and dressing change. I will be interested to see how my levels are after changing to one bag a day this week. I am not sure if they will be affected or not. I will update Tuesday when I hear more.

Finally, I had the second part of my screening this week for chromosomal disorders such as Downs Syndrome and Trisnomy. I got a call on Friday that my results for both parts of the test came back normal. What a relief and it was a good way to end the week with some good news!
