Today is Danny, my cousin Kim's middle child, 16th birthday! I was there at the hospital when he was born. The weeks leading up to his birth I started a photo documentary series following a very pregnant Kim and 2 1/12 year old Riley. I photographed through Easter a few weeks after Danny's arrival. I called the series of 30 black & white 8 x 10 prints Riley's Reaction.
Yes this was taken in February even though there is no snow. I've always felt very proud of this series. After editing it to twenty images I used to apply to study in Italy for a year, which was a wonderful experience. The bad part being I missed Danny's first year. He has grown into a very nice young man and I am so proud of him.
I survived day 8 of my first chemo cycle, which is 21 days. I will have next week, day 15, off. My white blood cell level was too low to start treatment without Dr approval, and that took awhile. We arrived just after 10:00 and didn't leave till 5:30. I ended up having same treatment as last time but I will need to go get a shot tomorrow afternoon. It's to help boost my bone marrow production. Yes this is my life.
