Hi all,
It has been a while since my last update. Treatment is done, Tamoxifen everyday... and back to a pretty good routine. Trying to lose some extra weight gained but thats not happening so quick...
But I went for a haircut (the second one) this time, and, well it was very nice to do what most people may take for granted...
My daughter came up to me and said, "hey mommy, you look like you..." After what they have seen these past 12 months, Ill take that as a compliment.
For Halloween, I went out as a "healthy" person and amused my kids.I believe I am healthy.
Dreaded scans next month, but Im positively positive Ill be OK. Help me hope.
Still have the joint pain, but working on it...
Life is simpler, but fun.
Hang in there everyone, light at the end. Im living proof...
Hugs,
Tina
Hi Tina,
Good to hear from you. It sounds like you're doing well. Your post is short but FULL of meaning -- you've certainly come a long way. Life being "simpler" yet "fun" is a wonderful way to look at it. And a second haircut and back to "looking like you" is very exciting! How sweet your daughter is.
By all means, yes -- we would be honored to "help you hope." Count on it.
Keep us posted, OK? Best of luck to you.
Sincerely,
Maria
Tina, the first scans, etc. are always scary. But after awhile, cancer isn't the first thing you think of when you wake up in the morning. And then, at some point, you can go a whole day and not think of it. Time heals... and you have a whole community here helping you hope. Best - PJH
