where Im at.....

Hi pink sisters! its been a LONG time since I've posted so this is gonna be a LONG one!

My hair has grown so please dismiss my old profile picture lol! some days i hate my boy hair but others days i love it! i put blond foils in a few weeks ago which helped me be female haha and so much more cheaper now than long hair like i used to! I have only 5 herceptins to go! yay! but im becoming more tired than i was a few months ago.....its like im moving on with my life (i recently got married!) but then BAM herceptin again! reality!

im still very nauseas and dizzy and im also having a colonoscopy next thursday bc im bleeding in my stools. anyone like that too? they kind of freaked me out when they said might be bowel cancer! woo hoo! but i think im more nervous about them trying to find a vein!

My concentration and forgettfulness is shit! especially while im at work. But ill get there :)

and my emotional state is all over the place- being on zoledex and Tamoxifen isnt helping either :( but im finding im happier now than I have been in a few years. I dont take shit from people (well-sometimes) but im more aware of myself and who I am as a person.

It was also lovely meeting the BCNA team last week when i was with merylee ( sillysam) for a photo shoot! and of course the yummy cakes they had haha! i forgot to tell them they do a fantastic job and I am blessed that this sort of organisation is around during my journey.

Anyways thats me for now....love and light to you all gorgeous pink sisters out there! Keep fighting!

  • Hey Jo!  Lovely to see you pop up again, and it was great to catch up with you in person last week.  Drop in any time you're around the area -- we love to see you guys! :)   Good luck with the tests this week, let us know how it goes.
