Chapter 6

TGIF! It has been a while since my last post, have been keeping myself busy. I think my injections to boost my white blood cells have been kicking in. I have had an energy boost in the last week. Working around the house, enjoying an evening in the city, hanging with friends, shopping, and just feeling good overall! But I have a feeling it is all coming to a hault. I think being out and about has landed me a cold, so just have to get through this little speed bump.

With every passing cold wintery day I lose bit by bit what little hair I have. Only a few patches left until I have one shiny white bald head. And I am so cold, I have lost my insulation. I cannot wait until warm weather. I don't think I will have a chance to tan the top of my head though, hopefully it will start growing back in May when I am done with my chemo treatments.

Another reason I haven't been writing is because my life kinda repeats itself every 3 weeks. I go in for chemo, feel crappy for about a week then start feeling good again, only to start the cycle over again with another bout of chemo. Not much has changed with me lately, so I don't have as much to write. But as soon as something pops into my head I will blog, just not as often as I did.

So, I am doing the Relay For Life this year on June 15th. It is my first time doing it and I joined forces with the Jeep Club. Stay tuned for some fundraisers we will be having. A yardsale, bakesale, etc, and maybe I will sell some of my homemade beef jerky... It is great to have this to look forward to and raise money for a great cause. Hopefully someday there will a cure for cancer.

Until next time, have a Happy Valentine's Day! xo


My pretty nails Chanda did!

  1. I just came across your blogs today. Thank you for sharing your journey! It is hard to know what to say.I would like you to know that I think of you often and wonder how you are doing. I really like how you you refer to cancer as "The Big C" It is like it is some dirty word that you are taking the power out of. I can't even begin to imagine the emotions and feelings you would have had when your Dr used the C word. I think from reading your blogs I can begin to understand it more. You have made me smile at the strength that you show and tear up at the whole journey you never got to have a choice in. I wish for the best for you and look forward to the day when your blog says "I beat it!!!"
    Take Care
