 Give yourself permission to pause!


Today's affirmation made me realize we all need to take moments to pause.  With the hustle and bustle of the holidays now over, it was a nice day to relax and soak up the stillness.  Do you have things that make you happy?  I'm talking small, sometimes silly things...I do.  Today I was able to enjoy some of the little things that make me happy.  For example, I love the comfort of my bedroom.  It's my peaceful, calm place.  Looking around at all my personal things makes me feel content.

I received the final piece to my tiny, bedroom office space today...my chair.  Its so comfortable!  



All the little things that give me comfort when I look around.  Surround yourself with things that bring good vibes!

Always make your bed as soon as you wake up.  It's a great way to feel accomplished first thing in the morning...and you get to enjoy how your space feels!


I love being wrapped up in my warm, electric blanket!

All this is a reminder to pause and enjoy the little things!

 MRI DAY Today I had my follow up MRI of my breasts.  I have completed five months of chemotherapy...FIVE MONTHS!  It hasn't been easy but I gave it all to God and pushed through.  I have one more round of chemotherapy set for this week and then I'll be finished with chemo!  My oncologist ordered the MRI so we can see what the chemo has done.  The table was of course uncomfortable but I knew it had to be done so I didn't move a muscle during the procedure.  They gave me some music to listen to this time so that helped.  I should get results in two to three days.  Please continue to keep me in your prayers and let's pray this chemo has done it's job and kicked cancer in the behind!

  AC TREATMENT #3 I had my third AC treatment on Thursday.  My troponin level is rising so that's currently a concern for my oncologist.  Troponin testing is used to detect heart damage.  Unfortunately, red devil chemo can cause heart toxicity, which is what we are trying to avoid.  They did an ECG on me prior to giving me the infusion just to make sure things looked ok.  They cleared me for my third treatment.  My oncologist wants to run a few more tests such as another echocardiogram on my heart before my fourth AC treatment in order to decide if I'll be given that last treatment or not.  It's a possibility they will skip the last one, but I won't know just yet.  He said he wasn't worried if I had to miss the last one.  At this point we just want to be safe about how my body is handling this tough chemotherapy.  Please say a prayer for good results on all my testing.

  Nov 8, 2024 Today was my routine mammogram and lung CT.  I was more nervous about the lung results than the mammogram.  I never expected anything to be wrong with my mammogram.  Everything went as planned and I left the office more worried about the follow up results from my lung nodules we’ve been following for the past three years.  I went about my day with few concerns.   Nov 12, 2024 Today I received news per mychart as well as a phone call from my doctor that my lung CT looked good and my nodules were stable!  Hooray!  That was the biggest relief.  I then decided to check mychart for my mammogram results, thinking everything would be normal.  I read the words “spiculated mass” in my left breast and was immediately concerned, as I googled spiculated and found out it isn’t a good shape to have on a mass. Then came the phone call.  I knew they were going to tell me about the mass.  They said I would need to have a foll...
