And So it began

"ONCE UPON A TIME"....there came along this little lump...insignificant really when you compare it to the entire world of lumps. That is, right up to the point that it wasn't...insignificant I mean............... and so began my journey.

A NEWER SHADE OF PINK...now I more then SURVIVE...I am learning to THRIVE...

OF COURSE... we all know things are bound to get a little crazy with a surprise around most every corner...not to mention an assortment of bumps and bruises along the way...but I am ever thankful for them all...they have all made me who I am. So buckle up, hold on tight and enjoy the ride thru what I lovingly refer to as LIFE

FIST PUMP....HIGH 5....DANCE LIKE A CRAZY PERSON...JUMP FOR JOY..ETC ETC
 
I MADE IT THRU
 
     Here I sit...day 3 of the chemo portion of this ride (1 down=7 to go)....and what a ride it has been up to this point.  It started off like more of a Gong show...gotta love PICC line issues....but alas we will have to wait for a less nausea filled day. 

     I am blessed to be working with a remarkable oncology team and they are doing everything they can to make this madness not so daunting.  They are hooking me up with a 3rd med to manage the nausea...which...let's be honest here...isn't much fun but WAY better then the alternative!! 

    Lesson #1 - raspberries are not my friend.....rookie move by me....lesson learned
