 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!

CHEMOTHERAPY DAY 1 Today was my first day of chemo.  I've been so anxious about this appointment because I didn't know how my body would react to it.  Luckily they gave lots of pre-medications.  I was given a very strong anti-nausea medication through my port, as well as a steroid and a strong dose of Benadryl.  The Benadryl caused me to feel very sleepy.  This actually helped with my anxiety.  Today begins a 12 week treatment with two different chemo drugs, along with Keytruda.  I'll be on Keytruda every 3 weeks for the next year for my immunotherapy.  I will be coming for treatment oncer per week for the first 12 weeks.  After the 12 weeks, I will have an additional 8 weeks of chemotherapy.  The second half of my chemo treatment contains the Red Devil, also known as Doxorubicin.  I will likely begin losing my hair within the next few weeks of my current treatment.  I'm ok with that.  I'll do anything in order to beat thi...

 RESULTS DAY! Whew, has it been a long, excruciating weekend waiting for test results from my full body bone scan and CT.  I'm so happy to share the great news with everyone that my scans (according to the results in my chart) look clear of any metastatic disease!  My CT impression stated:  no findings to suggest metastatic disease in the chest, abdomen, or pelvis.  My bone scan stated:  Whole-body bone scan is negative for skeletal metastases.  This means my cancer is still contained to my left breast.  Praise the Lord!  God is so good!  I'm so grateful for this news today.

 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!
