Starting Chemo March 2015

ew, you gross girl! But funny!

Hmmm. "Stu"?

Still have ten pounds of the damn chemo weight, 2 and 1/2 months after final chemo. And exercising at a level of about 5,000 calories a week.

Carrie...Will be thinking of you tomorrow too...hope all goes well.

I think I just need to staple my mouth shut lol. Seriously, I need to go back to being super strict with food. Today's lunch was tuna, artichoke hearts, Palm hearts, olives, cucumbers and tomatoes, so thats a start.

If only cookies didn't taste so damn good....

Theresa - my doc suggested the saline nose spray, but when I told them how frequent they were, he was concerned so wanted me to get checked out.

Whitney, I would totally get checked. Just offered it as a suggestion. I hate bloody noses. I hope everything turns out fine.

As Katy says, chemo, the gift that keeps giving.

Hahaha, Sharon. Good one.

Carrie: I will be thinking of you today and sending you good thoughts. I am feeling similarly. I breastfed my two daughters for almost a total of 3 years. I am just trying not to mourn them (having mine on Sept 1) and thank them for providing for my kids. Or I shouldn't say NOT mourn them. I think you have to. It's normal to feel that way. Hugs.

Katy: Awww…..I LOVE that picture.

Sizzle: Not sure if you will read this but I think we all understand. That's the very reason I didn't want to be on FB. I didn't want my FB to be about cancer.

I can't remember if I told you guys I went to get my wig styled and the lady started saying " I lost my boyfriend to cancer….' I stopped her and said 'Please don't tell me about people you know who have died of cancer'. I just cut them off now. Usually it is people who are in working environments. I don't think anyone I know has done that that is a friend for family. Maybe my doped up sister in law. Coincidentally, just found out she has early stage BC. I think she is about 61.

Whitney: I used to get bloody noses when I visited Vegas or Arizona so a dry climate would make that 10x worse. Hopefully it is nothing and you can get it resolved after seeing the doctor. I keep a bottle of saline handy, too.

Me too. I can totally see doing that!

Well, admittedly, it is easy when the person has proven themselves in the past to be an insensitive clod like this woman at the wig place. You can tell she is just very immature (around 60) and has a diarrhea mouth anyway.

I kind of like having permission (that I gave to myself) to be rude to stupid people. I've been waiting for this opportunity all my life! High price to pay, but since I can't help that, I'm gonna take full benefit!

Theresa, you look great! The bald spot is filling in!

T- you are rocking that look! Well done, brave girl!
