Today.

I asked Allie if I could take some pictures of her so that she would remember the experience. I got this one as she was getting out of bed. It says it all: she hurts from top to bottom. Allie never expected it to be this painful. I am inspired by who she is in the matter of this whole thing; she is refusing any hard pain medication and instead sits still and just keeps herself calm. She uses Tylenol extra strength instead. I seriously do not know if I could do what she is doing. She is one tuff young woman.

Last night she finally fell asleep after a considerable amount of pain. I helped her take a shower today which made her feel much better. I also made her go to the grocery store with me to walk around. After that she was so tired she slept for four hours. I wanted to get her up so she wasn't so stiff but I see her feeling much better now.

Now is the waiting for the pathology. I can't wait for them to tell me she is cancer free! That is my full intention and that is the only option.
