Green Light for Chemo #2
I passed all tests today so got the green light for Chemo #2! WOO HOO!
It was a super fantastic appointment because not only did I pass the blood test, but Dr. Kritz agrees with my belief that...
I stopped off at Publix to fill an Rx on the way home. My favorite pharmacist told me that her Dad got diagnosed w/Prostate cancer *YESTERDAY*. She had just seen him over the weekend then he got the call on Monday. :(
She said, "I immediately thought about you when he told me. I told him he's TOTALLY GOT THIS!"
Ok, *THAT* made me shed a few tears! :)
They caught his early so his prognosis is good. CANCER SUCKS...and it sure does NOT discriminate in any shape or form.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

My Warriors are Hard at Work!
It's chemo week. Gotta keep putting one foot in front of the other....
My Warriors are keeping me strong. WOW!
The most positive impact that Cancer has had on my life is being the recipient of so much LOVE. WOW!
I had *NO* idea of what I have been robbing myself of by keeping my life so closed off.
Being open about everything has been absolutely inspiring. The response I get is phenomenal! I'm *totally* addicted to it now. I will never go back....

I can't even drink anything without being reminded of how loved I am....
I got this today...at the exact right moment. It motivated me to get out of bed and seize the day!

My Eyes Are Bipolar
Once your immune system is gone....life gets veeeeeeery interesting!
I woke up Wednesday morning and one of my eyes watering. One. Not two. ONE. I got to work and it just kept getting worse. Called my Oncologist and he said it was ok to call an eye doctor. So I did and got an appointment for later in the day.
As I'm checking in, the nurse looks at me and says "So only ONE of your eyes is watering, eh?"
"Yep."
Then she pauses....
Then she looks at me again and says "It's like your eyes are bipolar."
Then we BOTH break out into hysterics!
"One is crying and the other is laughing."
More hysterics!
Then she says, as she looks at my form, "This is a first for me. There is no box for that on this form!"
ROFL!
It took the doctor .05 seconds to tell me my eye was infected. I told him that it really hurt and felt like something was in it....so he pulled up my eyelid and SHAZAM! There was the problem. A little rock was under my eye lid. REALLY?!?!? As soon as he got it out, I felt IMMEDIATE relief! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!
So now I'm on eye drops 4X/day for a week. Normally a body would have been able to handle something like this but not mine.
Not anymore.
CANCER SUCKS!
So, if you're reading this, please take a minute to hug yourself and thank your immune system for doing a SUPER AWESOME FANTASTIC job! I didn't realize what a daily job it had until now...

Bubba

Must Tame The Inner Energizer Bunny
Got this picture from one of my warriors to remind me to tame my inner Energizer Bunny:
It is SOOOOO hard not to seize every moment to it's fullest. Ugh. But I'll do whatever I gotta do to get thru this. Today as I was getting ready to cross Six Forks to go back to work, I was standing with about 6 other people. BC (Before Cancer) I would have been the first to finish crossing the street.....dynamite in a small package and all that jazz....but instead..... today....I just "strolled". That is my new thing. Strolling. Wow. They don't warn you about that side effect. ;) It's ok though, I'm noticing things I never noticed before, so that's a good thing.
No more fever spikes and the past few days I have felt good! YAY! Next week is chemo #2 so I'm starting to gear up for that. With every chemo I am just that much closer to victory.
The support I continue to get is absolutely phenomenal. Wow! My Warriors are keeping me going....definitely! THANK YOU!
❤️,
Bubba
How perfect is that!
