Why the title for this blog?

I struggle with staying positive in the sight of adversity. It is very easy for me to dwell on the negative aspects of my situation and miss the blessings that come from the trial and so I will use this blog to help me stay focused on the rainbows of my life.

On the Rebound

Today's lab results show that I am on the rebound side from the first chemo treatment. With the exception of my white blood count and the number of lymphocytes in the blood everything else has gone back up into the normal range. If my white count goes back up I will receive my next chemo treatment on the 22nd.
I saw Dr. Peterson today as well. He checked out my arm more and did a chest x-ray to make sure that my port and supply line were still in place. Everything looked okay. If things start to change they will do an ultrasound next. I am still on weight lifting restrictions for another month. He said that if after that time things are going better we will talk about a release to go back to work.
