The last month and a half has been busy. Same ol’ same ol’ with the chemo routine. I was able to have my third treatment in Grant on July 29. As soon as I was done…I called my oncologist’s office and requested they send a referral for me to UCHealth. I think they were happy […]
This is going to be more of an educational post. Sometimes I forget that not everyone has the same medical knowledge that I do, and I was told that I am good at “side stepping” some details. I want to start out by saying that I haven’t intentionally left out or “side- stepped” any details. […]
Although I was upset that I couldn’t stay right on the 3 week schedule by getting my 2nd treatment in Grant on Friday, it turned it to be a good thing. This weekend was filled with fun in the sun and under the stars, surrounded by family and friends. We were able to enjoy just […]
Coming at you with another update. The first week after my treatment on the 12th was definitely not fun. From previous experience, I knew that I needed to take it easy. So I did. Well the aches and pains set in Sunday afternoon. Anyone who knows me knows that I would rather wait out the […]
I TRULY believe this. Everything in our lives happens to get us to where we are supposed to be. This week has been a roller coaster. Monday was spent cleaning and doing laundry, preparing for my upcoming treatment on Friday. Tuesday was a cold, gloomy, rainy day. I drove to Grant to get lab work […]
The past few weeks has been a slow moving whirlwind. After my PET scan on May 22 showed my cancer was back, it was definitely long overdue for some family time. Since the outbreak of the Corona Virus pandemic, we had not seen our family near enough. Braxtyn’s birthday was May 23, so we had […]
Divine Intervention: A miracle or act of god (or gods) that causes something good to happen or stops something bad from happening. We’ve all heard stories of divine intervention, but have you ever personally experienced it? You’re frustrated over running late for work, and then realize you may have been involved in a huge accident […]
WOW!! It has been 3 years!!! Some days it feels like much longer, but others it seems like just yesterday! The following may be a little difficult to follow, but here we go… That day I was diagnosed was a blessing!! God was telling me to slow down and he knew this was about the […]
February 5. This is a day that will always stay with me, like a birthday or anniversary. 11:09 am. This is a time I don’t think will ever fade completely out of my memory. It has been 1 year since receiving the phone call. The one where at first I thought the nurse was just […]
So. I decided to no longer count the days. Rather, I will live them. Since my last update, I have been trying to do just that (hence the lack of updates). I have healed well, and I am almost done with my treatments. I will have 2 more Herceptin treatments in February and then will […]
