This weekend I spent lots of time with my mother. She had her second chemo treatment on Friday. On Saturday she shaved her head because her hair start to fall out earlier this week. It's very odd to see her bald, but I guess I'll get used to it. As a family (minus my brother who was at college) we went to my grandmother's for lunch on Sunday to spend time with my dad's family. My dad's mother had 16 children and I now have 48 first cousins and those cousins have maybe 10 or so children of their own. There were about 25 to 35 people at my grandmother's house throughout the day. I was just happy to see my mom having a good time. The last Sunday after her chemo she slept all day and barely ate. But yesterday she sat outside and talked with everyone for 4 hours. I had a lot of fun too, it's always nice to spend time with my family, especially since I've been at college and don't go home that often. All in all it was a good weekend and I feel like my mom's made it half way through the hard chemo, just half way more and she'll be into the "easy" stuff......
