I'm Valerie, and I wanted to share with you my experiences in the hospital while I go through chemotherapy. I was recently diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) on August 13, 2010, and have to spend a little over six months in the hospital! I'm able to go home for a couple days after each monthly cycle of chemotherapy, which is such a teaser cause it makes me feel "normal" again, but I enjoy my time out to breathe fresh air again.
So take a look around my website, and don't be a stranger. =]
Thank you Mommy for being here with me in the hospital 24/7 and assisting me with what I need.
My brothers and family for helping me adjust to these new living conditions and holding my spirits high.
My boyfriend Daryl for catering to my every need and not giving up on me.
His family for the encouragement.
And everyone else for supporting me through this tough time.
I LOVE YOU ALL.
