Busy week!

Its been a busy week lets see Monday went to my La Sha house and help her clean the house, Layla and I help her bath and wash her hair since she can't lift her left arm over her head yet. Layla was so cute she help wash her back, arms,hands, and feet with conditioner then she took her clothes off and raise her hands and said "me". So I had to put her in the bath with La Sha.

Tuesday was my pre-op Shreai watch Peyton and La Sha and I went to the hospital. Got there right at 10am and did my talk with the nurse about my health histroy, then went and gave blood, echo, then to x-ray. After that went to go see a nurse navaigter she went in full detail what was going to happen the minute I check in on Jan 4th. From the time I go in to operating room to what Dr. Chow will be doing to recover to my stay. She was so good at explaining every thing.

Wednesday went and did some errands and then went to La Sha and took her to go pick up Peyton meds and then week over to my son house. And then back to the house came home and did laundry. Had game night with the kids and had a glass of wine.

Thursday finish up laundry. And relax.

Friday not doing to much except picking up my pay check. And keeping kids Friday night since no one wants to do any thing with my on New Year's Eve! It ok I will have my poppers and my Champan. The grandkids with have their juice and poppers.

Happy New Year!

Christmas

Well lets see La Sha had her surgery on Wed. 22nd. So on the 24th I took Christmas Eva to her. I have been a bit much with all the grand kids there and the adults. First of all went to church for Christmas serve. It was a little crazy and noisy but fun. We had pizza, chips and dip, vegtable tray, summer sauage and cheese, cookies and candy. It was alot of visting and laughing. My children were all there and the kids daddy with his girl friend. Poor La Sha I bet she just wanted some peace and quite after that. I made the kids some reindeer food put on the lawn before they go to bed they really seem to like that.

Christmas Day was a quite one but good. Now comes the New Year!

I hope everyone else had a good one!

Then I get to deliver some flowers to a couple of clients from the company which I am not getting paid for and having to do it on my time. Boy can't wait until Dec. 30th.

On my son computer even better. I guess I could us the quite time. I do have the dogs to keep me company. It would be nice to have some company but thats not happening. Oh well the lone time is not so bad. I just don't know what to do with myself. What does one do when they have lone time?

New News!

Just found out today that my surgery is Jan. 4 at 7:15 am. Didn't think is was going to be this soon. I was looking at around the middle of the month. But you know what glad I'm getting it done early. Life is wonderful with all the blessings I have.

Dr. Results

Went to the surgeon today. I told her that my right breast was draining blood and she said its normal for breast cancer. From when I seen her last month the tumor has not gotten any smaller. When I went to see Dr. Oommen on the 1st he said it has but I told him I didn't think it had and I could feel the lymph nodes a litter bigger. Well Dr. Chow also agree with me that it hasn't gotten any smaller. So we decide that I will have both breast remove. She said there is a enough skin to close up. But they are going to have to do some pulling and it is going to be tight. She will remove all my lymph nodes under my right arm. I will stay over night and go home the next day with 4 drain bulbs. Surgery she said will take about 4 hrs. After 4 weeks of surgery I will start radiation every day for 6 weeks. After about 3 months then comes Reconstruction. I am so ready to get the surgery done.

Love like you have never been love before!
Live one day at a time and treasure it, you never know when it will be your last day!

Been Thinking!

Been thinking here lately not sure way maybe cause surgery is coming up pretty soon. Here are my thoughts. When you have some thing like cancer people go into hiding or they come out of the closet. So they keep in touch with you at the beginning and then they stop talking to you. I have had some friends that when they found out its all about keeping in touch asking and show their concerns and that they are prayer for you. And then you don't hear from them any more why is that? What are they afraid of? That they might get it or is it because I lost my hair or because I won't have a chest any more. And then there are the ones that don't talk to you in such a long time. And when they found out they are always checking on you, are they making up for lost time? I don't understand cause my cancer, my hair lost, and having one breast remove does not change me as a person. I wonder after I have my breast remove how many others won't have any thing to do with me. Its OK if no one wants any thing to do with me I'm find with it. But don't judge me by my cover you didn't before or did you! This has been on my mind alot here lately. Does it hurt me, no, it just disappoints me in how the ones that was close to you are not any more. So who are your real friends and who is your real family?

Dr. Results

Visted with Dr. OOmmen today had lab work and port flush. Good ole doc said that the tumor seems to be shrinking more not alot but a little. He was telling me that if the margins are positive then I will have to do chemo with hormone threphy. The chemo will be in a pill form. He did say that if that happens then it is going to be rough for me. So lets hope that the margins are negative. Go back to see him Jan. 3. Next week will be vist with Dr. Chow.

After appointment went to go to eat with my La Sha and then went to mall and pick up a few things. No crowd that was nice. Then we went to Wal mart and back home.

Life is nice!
