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.

Round 2 of Rituxan

Received the second round of Rituxan today. Took 4-1/2 hours. They decreased the amount of Benadryl they gave me as it really wipes me out. That being said, I still have slept most of the day. My white count has dropped to 2.8. Normal is 4.6-10.2. This means that I am at greater risk for infections. My resistance is low. Good hand washing, nutritious food, lots of liquids, and plenty of sleep are necessary. So far, I am doing real well. I did not get the cold that Brian and my sister had. I know that this is from prayers being answered. I go in for chemotherapy tomorrow morning.
