CRYSTAL MAGIC…

I am way more than what I am releasing.  I am love.

QUE SERA SERA…

Am I experiencing side effects or just over analyzing everything?  New mantra – What will be will be and only temporarily.

HUGS ARE GOOD…

I think I just feel bad for my body for what it has gone through and for what it will now be put through.

FIRST DAY OF CHEMO…

Today is the first day of my chemo treatment.  I have so many emotions and feelings; nervousness, worry, fear, sadness, tension, stress, apprehension. Thank goodness for anti-anxiety medicine.

ARE YOU SICK MOM?

Explaining my surgeries and chemo to my son Erik.  That was an interesting discussion that ended with a big hug!

I DON’T WANT TO BE MEAN…

How do you react when you’re fatigued?  Me, I get cranky and snappy, I know a side effect of chemo is fatigue. I don’t want to be mean to my loved ones during this process. That’s a big concern for me right now. 

I LIKE GINGER…

One side effect of chemo is nausea. I searched the internet for something to counter that and came up with ginger. I like ginger so that’s going to be easy to incorporate daily.

I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO EXPECT…

I’m finding that making videos is exciting.  Looking forward to sharing my journey with all of you.  Even though I have no clue what that is going to be like.

I WANT MORE TIME…

Today the decision was made on which day chemo starts.  OMG… is this really going to happen next week?  What do I need to do to prepare?
