Day 17 – Meet Dr. Heather
As I reflected on my chemo follow-up appointment today, my fingers began counting the number of times I've recanted this story.
Day 16 // Hubby is always right!
I have to give credit where credit is due. He was right - and more often than not. I should have listened but hope was guiding my thoughts - hope that my path would be different.
Day 15 // Upside Down?
Shock was never a word that I could use to describe myself until the day I found out about the cancer.
Day 14 // Do what you LOVE…and LOVE what you do!
Occasionally it's a conversation; every so often it's a speech or lecture. And then often it's a phone call from someone who knows you too well (thank you Calena).
Day 13 // Rebooting My Strength
Like most things in life having a different experience is a matter of perspective.
Day 12 // Summer Fun, Sun and S’mores!
The dreaded day arrived with much anxiousness as anticipated. Gia could not be more excited. Me? Well, I had knots the size of cantaloupes inside my stomach!
Day 11 // Google Garble
We’ve all been there - waking up in the middle of the night with a pounding headache, lymph nodes the size of tennis balls, tingling fingers or another ailment with an unexplained origin.
Day 10 // White Blood Counts vs. Wonder Woman
The battle has begun and immunity is at stake. The enemy? The toxic drugs attempting to derail my white blood counts.
Day 9 // East Meets West
At some point modern medicine will have to grant more credence to Eastern medicine and healing practices.
Day 8 // NAIR (Oops! I mean HAIR) No More!
Stepping into the steamy shower, I was apprehensive about washing my hair - and with good reason.
