12SEP25 Update………

Just a little update…… Monday I had my 2nd round of chemotherapy. My sugar was 333 so they reduced the steroid they give me. I did ok. My nurse was really rough with my port. Literally left a bruise. Tuesday I felt pretty good. I was able to move around. Wednesday was ok…… I could feel all of the meds wearing off. Thursday I had to do a brain MRI to keep a check on my “spot”. It is done with and without contrast. Did great that morning. We got home and I was completely wiped out. I felt like I had a bad case of the flu. All of my joints felt like someone was stabbing me. It was probably the worst physical pain I have experienced. I could hardly stand and I was very weak. I do know a God that is the ultimate physician and I prayed that He would take the pain away. I did not know that my husband was praying the same thing. He said he couldn’t stand to see me that way. My hair is falling out by the handfuls. I ordered a cheap wig and got the information I needed to have my insurance company pay for a nicer one. I guess I’ll work on that Monday. So it’s not Friday……. I feel some better. Not in nearly as much paid. I’m still a little wobbly, but better. Thank you all who have called , texted , sent flowers, sent cards…… I maybe slow to respond, but I do appreciate everything!

Reach out to Mrs Zombie. At her head-shaving party, she received a number of very nice wigs that she chose not to wear (she was a hat girl).

08OCT25 UPDATE………

So it has been a minute since my last update. I had my 3rd round of chemotherapy on 29SEP25. It was a little rough. My sugar was 198!! Yeah me. I was sick for the whole week after, but im feeling a lot better now. I’m still a little tired. Well maybe a lot tired but overall I feel pretty good. I bought a cheap wig to see if I would like it. Miss poker zombie sent me a red wig. I don’t think I’m a redhead. I don’t think I can pull it off so I got a blonde wig and it looks pink so my hairdresser came by today to try to cut it and color it and get it up to where I look OK well know next week or so if she gets it handled because at this point of the game, I don’t have a whole lot of hair and what hair I do have is either white or black nothing in between.

I saw my plastic surgeon, and he is thinking about not putting an implant in for the reconstruction of my breast, but instead taking some fat for my belly and using my own fat to repair my breast. He feels like that that would be a less intrusive surgery on my body. I also met with my neurosurgeon about the spot in my brain and so far it looks unchanged so I have three years of clean brain scans and I have a new appointment in two years. Great news. They were going to take my port out a week after my last chemo per my oncologist, but when I went to schedule my appointment, the doctor was hesitant and disagreed, so we will revisit that again in December just in case I have to use my port again. I have driven a few times starting to get my life back. I did try to mud and sand some drywall this week. I don’t think I’m ready for that yet. Maybe I’ll just paint.

Thank you again to everybody who has reached out with love and kindness and encouragement. It has been well needed. I look forward to my next appointment. It will be my last and I get to ring the bell.
