I finished Taxol #4 today. I haven't updated lately because I haven't felt very well for a while. I hate making depressing posts! Recently, I've had major stomach issues, my toenails are starting to fall off, nosebleeds, overwhelming exhaustion, lymphedema flare ups, my skin is breaking out, lashes/eyebrows are almost gone (but my leg hair is growing, wth!?), and I get painful/stiff a lot. I feel really old! Today for chemo I decided to dress up a bit!! I wore hair! And lashes! And makeup! :P The nurses barely recognized me :) I felt super cute and it's true what they say - feeling good about yourself makes you feel better overall. Soooooo.... I took a bunch of selfies! :P And I had to selfie with my BFF!!! This funny guy Harold Hardy was entertaining the patients! Check him out on YouTube Annnddddd we got photo bombed... When I got home, the wig had to come right off! It's kind of like wearing an annoyin...
After receiving a breast cancer diagnosis at the age of 37 years old, my life has been redefined in so many ways. I am here, blogging, to share my story.
