I want to thank everyone who helped us get the funds to move. We started the move on April 1st and finished by the 5th. Good thing because I started my new job on the 6th. It is only temporary through September but there is a good chance it will go permanent. If it does, I will need to turn...

We are most likely moving in September or October to the Santa Barbara area to take care of Mike's mom. Thing is, she is highly allergic to cats. We are going to keep the cats but they will have to be outside cats. We want to build an enclosure to keep them safe, happy and warm with their toys...

Went in at 730 AM and got taken right back. The surgery took about an hour and a half. I am in a bit of pain but was perscribed Percocet and an antibiotic. I have been sleeping most of the day. I have also been nauseous. I am sleeping in my recliner as it is too uncomfortable in the bed...

Well, I did get my unemployment just this week. I am not getting much but it will help. I am also having my corrective surgery on Thursday, June 19th. LOL, I am getting a "free" boob job. But I would much rather be saggy and whole. The past 18+ months have been so hard.

I went into work today and found out I was suspended for something out of my control. Our customers get surveys where they grade us on the call. Problem is that if we follow company policy by denying credits or phone number change fees, the customer gets upset and gives us a low score. So...

I haven't been here for a long time! I am doing good. I finished my chemo in August and I am getting another drug which targets a certain gene that caused my cancer. It is not chemo but is in the same class. Therefore my hair is growing back. I am wating on approval for my corrective surgery...

I had to have a biopsy on my adrenal gland today as they are suspecting the cancer has spread. Very painful even though I was given sedation. They had to go through my liver to get to the tumor! I am now praying for good results.

I couldn't sleep last night, so I went to sit in my recliner. This is what I found. Dusty sound asleep. I didn't have the heart to wake her.

I am still around. I just started my next series of chemo yesterday. Once a week for 12 weeks. They have discovered a tumor on my adrenal gland. My oncologist isn't too concerned since I am receiving chemo already. They will do another scan in 6 weeks and once my chemo is finished, I will have...

I had my second chemo today. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to have it but my WBC went from 2.2 to 27.1! The Neukine really worked! Here are a couple of pics from today. The second one is one of me hatless after my hair started falling out. I really do not mind being bald as I think I have...

I haven't posted for quite awhile as I am so tired all the time. I am supposed to have another chemo session on Tuesday but it depends on my White Blood Count. When I went in on Tuesday, my WBC was at 2.2, which is very low. I got an injection of Leukine and have had to go to the cancer center...

I will be getting a mixture of 2 chemo drugs every 3 weeks for 4 sessions, and then another chemo drug every week for 12 weeks. After that I will be getting Herceptin every week for 52 weeks. The first 2 sessions will cause me to lose my hair but it will grow back during the last one. I am...

I got a call today and I go to an informational class tomorrow about my chemo. My first chemo session will be on Tuesday the 26th.

Well the pathology shows Stage 2 Grade 3. The cancer was HER2 positive and had spread to a couple of the lymph nodes. I also have/had Paget's Disease, which is cancer of the nipple! That is why the nipple was always so crusty and would bleed sometimes. I see the oncologist tomorrow to see when...

We think Rusty may have an URI and plan on taking her to the Vet today. She is sneezing a lot and looks like she doesn't feel good. How much does the treatment normally cost? We have $300 set aside that I was going to use toward a new computer but Rusty is more important. Dusty is fine, not...

I had the surgery on the 28th. They actually had to take the entire breast. Monday, I went to the oncologist and they drew blood out of the port where I wil be taking the chemo. It didn't hurt at all! Yesterday they took out the drain. I was so happy to get that out. They also removed the...

Got home last night about 8. I did get a full mastectomy of left boob. The biopsy of my lymph node was negative. TI am in a bit of pain but thepainpills areworking.

I am leaving for the hospital in a few minutes for my mascesurgery. Keep me in your prayers. 

Well, I am finally having my surgery on the 28th. I had to wait for Medi-cal to approve my MRI. I finally had it and was scheduled for surgery on the 21st but that was a holiday and they didn't work that day. So barring anything else, I will have the surgery on the 28th. I will then start my...
