Beauty and The Power Port Princess!
Yesterday I went to this free service they offer to cancer patients. They go over make up, skin care and all that jazz for when you go through Chemo. There was only 2 of us and the lady said they didn’t know if they were going to continue the program because of lack of interest.…

Why is she such a hot mess???
I’ve been sitting here thinking a lot about things lately. My latest revaluation came yesterday as I’m sitting here scratching my scalp and shedding more than usual. The head starts to feel weird when the first stages of hair loss start. So a few years back I worked at a company and everyone there was…

Did anyone get the number of that bus?
Geeze Louise. These last few days have knocked me on my ass. Super tired, drained….feel like I’ve been hit by a bus. Just kind of crazy. Trying to keep doing the usual but with a little more rest. Last day of my Dexamethasone for the cycle. Which is good because I think it contributes to…

Tiaras!!!!!
So I just went in for my white cell booster shot. First, we don’t use the terms “The Red Devil” or “Red Death” I guess that’s not appropriate. I thought my Navigator was going to lose it. (still kind of funny) But I may have talked everyone into an arts and craft session to have…

“Red Death” or “The Red Devil”
It’s always reassuring when you have something administered into your body with the names “Red Death” and “The Red Devil” by someone with all sorts of protective gear on. After 24 hours that part is starting to sink in. Needless to say it’s some pretty potent shit. Well see how these next 8 weeks go.…

The First Day of the Rest of My Life
First Chemo session was today. I’m not going to lie. I was a mess this morning. I mean the whole “this could be the last time I wash my hair” but then countered with “this could be the last time I shave my legs” So it kind of evens out a bit. Going in was…

And So it begins….
Happy Friday! First let me say PET/CT scan pictures are way cool. So the PET/CT scan came back and they didn’t find any cancer any place else. That is a good thing. It is localized. Because there are a few lymph nodes that are positive I have been staged at T4B Stage 3B. So it’s…

Testing and Shit
Yesterday I met with the Surgeon. No news, but we are just in the stages of meeting the doctors who are on my team and what they do and what role they play. So far I feel very comfortable with all my doctors. So that’s a good thing. Today I had my first PET/CT scan.…

Zoinks!
Hasn’t been a real eventful day today. I am overwhelmed with all the love and support from everyone. “THEY LOVE ME….THEY REALLY LOVE ME…” Had my appointment with the Radiology Oncologist. Well isn’t radiation therapy long and intensive. Sheesh! Basically this was just to get all the paperwork filled out there and then meet…

Hooray for Boobies!!!!
I have been a bit busy and haven’t had a chance to update since December! I said I wasn’t going to be good at this. Maybe that will change. New year and all. So where did I leave off. I returned the windows phone. I couldn’t deal and ended up with the Galaxy 6 Active.…
