Updates on Cancer and other stuff. For the past few months I have been dealing with radiation on my left breast and the consequences of all of it. The initial situation of having to go to the Cancer Center 19 times in a row for 15 minute increments went well.. it slid into my schedule and at first didn’t make feel any worse for wear. But by the time I dealt with the holidays through December I was getting hit with intense exhaustion. Exhaustion which led to lots of sleep, a bit of nausea and odd symptoms. The rash on my left breast has subsided now, leaving dryness which I am treating with a great lotion. The funny thing is the scars from my lumpectomy on my left breast is now pink, and my lift scars on my right breast is still purple.. so now I am treating both of them. But, I am healing slowly.
Yesterday I had a PET scan for Valentines day. Despite the hard fact of fasting and then getting nauseated with all the liquid they make you drink it wasn’t that bad. I came prepared this time and didn’t wear anything with metal so I didn’t have to be in a hospital gown. I survived it and right after got a sandwich and chocolate strawberries.
As my breasts heal I am feeling better and better and the thoughts of the novel of my past life experiences has come back into my brain, and I am thinking of it constantly.
And because of that I am jumping with both feet in and updating this website. So this blog will be about Cancer, but also about the writing process and the subjects I am hitting on. I also am going to let some other characters write their own thoughts down. The novel ECHO will have its own page if you are interested. This is a book I have wanted to write for a very long time.. and now its finally starting.
So please check out the other pages when you get a chance, and subscribe if you haven’t already.
