Two more weeks of chemo!!!

I officially have two weeks left of chemo. Having started this in January - I am pretty excited to be so close to done. I am still not sure if I have to do radiation and I should know that answer on June 19th. I also found out today that I go to Georgetown hospital on June 24th, to talk with the surgeons up there. So for right now, I have all the "need to do's" scheduled. I just have to wait.

It is weird I almost feel strange to be done with Chemo. I have had a chemo schedule going for so long and now I will be done. Don't get me wrong I am pleased as punch to almost be done, it is just I have been going for so long it is a part of my weekly schedule.

My hair is growing back muy rapido, so I am really close to having a full head of hair, and by that I mean a pretty beast looking buzz cut. You know I am a pretty tough chick and I must say a buzz cut really kicks that up a notch.

Well that is all for tonight, I hope you all have a nice weekend, keep cool.

Ringing in the New year

Hewwo everybody :) Well I had my "snap back moment" on my birthday. I was star gazing on my day of birth, taking a little solo time and I started to think, what do I have to be thankful for. And it came to me. I am alive. In that exact moment everything from the past year came full circle. I immediately became excited about all the possibilities I have before me, in 2009 and beyond. I also gave myself a little pat on the back for making through the past year, without losing the things I hold dear. I am excited to continue to shake off the trauma from the last year and fall into my full stride. I had a great time in the OBX and found that I was able to really be myself, laughing, joking, sprinkling in a little deep thoughts and just gettin down. I hope you all had a great new year and I wish you all the best. xoxo - Rosie

Home!

I went through an eleven hour surgery on Thursday and was in the hospital until Sunday. I've been home for a few days and am feeling better everyday. Everything's still difficult but it will be better soon. Thanks for all your prayers and thoughts. In case you're wondering, I'm not typing this, so if it sounds short and choppy, it's because I'm dictating this to a friend. Peace out. :)

Last year

On a much earlier post I mentioned I feel that I have been prepared by previous experiences to face my current situation. I wanted to share a little bit of that with you. Last year from Feb - June I went to see a doctor at least twice a month. I gave blood after almost every visit to get tested for pretty much everything under the sun (except for cancer). I was really fatigued all the time and I was in constant pain. In the end I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, which if you are familiar basically means - you are fatigued and have constant pain. Feb to June was a really difficult time because I could not figure out what was wrong and how to fix myself. I struggled and had no hope. It was an incredibly frustrating time for me and I simply had a horrible time coping with everything. I then had problems with my eyes; they were watering all the time, like crazy waterfall watering. I went to see my eye doctor and he put me on steroids because my eye was infected and it caused my pu...
