DIEP surgery on the 31st... very scared. Support needed.

Hey all,    I haven't written in quite a while. I've been living my life and there are day's weeks and months where I've forgotten that I've had cancer. Then I shower and look down and remember that "oh yeah, body part missing". But I have gotten used to it and save for rare occasions get kinda pouty.     I have... Read moreChevron

Illustrated party bummer.

I do try and stay positive, and most of the time I am successful. It's been a long road this past year and I am still figuring out the new normal and the new me. One of the side effects of chemotherapy was rapid weight gain. I gained 19 lbs over the course of the last 4 months on Taxol. Nothing fits and I am pretty miserable.
