My Story

Welcome to our Pink Sister site.   I am so glad that you have been getting benefit from the good info on this site.  Yes, chemo is scarey but the other choice is scarey too.  I still have my portacath in (finished chemo early June 2011).  I have it flushed every couple of weeks at a cost of $20 each time.  I would rather being spending $20 on ice creams or something else more yummy but "it is as it is" so I just keep going along.  My specialist think I will be needing it again so I just live with "Penny Portacath".  I love your hair - enjoy the fun and a sense of humour goes a long way even if it makes some people shudder at times.   I had long hair and really enjoyed having the graduated shorter styles.  Then when I had no hair I loved the hats and headgear.  I'm sure you will too and it will be during winter time like I had it.  Best wishes to you XLeonie PS  If you want to keep in touch just ad me as a contact.
