My message to all....don't put off your mammogram -it hurts so good!

My message to all....don't put off your mammogram -it hurts so good!

I hope this blog serves as a message board -that early detection is the hope for your future. Pull up your big girl panties - and get your girls checked out. Make an appointment today-(you know who you are).

I also want to document my "Journey on the Pink Brick Road" - because I don't want to forget a minute of it (I think) and I have heard from others that "Chemo Brain" or "Monkey Brain" is the result of the medication that is used to shrink my tumor. I have seen this already - so it will help me to remember where I parked my car yesterday and why was I even parking "there".

So hold my hand and I will hold yours on my journey on the Pink Brick Road (this definitely doesn't look like Kansas)!

I am well - sorry I dropped the blog ball!

I have been in La La Land for 5 of the last few days - and it was a great break from my reality!  My nephews wedding was a very beautiful ceremony at the LA Garden Center - Our last day in LA,  was fun as a TV show was being filmed in front of our hotel.  They actually changed our hotel name and chances are some of us will  be seen if they don't cut us.  It was a long trip back, but we all arrived back in St. Louis with enough time to catch most of the Cardinals loss (UGH!)

I had a few hours off until I was scheduled to get a port placed around my collar bone - where I will be getting 4 chemo treatments (every 3 weeks), or any blood draws.  This went well - and I spent most of the day resting afterwards.  John and I went to purchase my new "wig" friend - Meredith - she will be arriving next week - I don't have to keep her if I don't like her.

I'm at work today and will hopefully see the Cardinals win tonight.- My list of prayer warriors keeps growing and I am very grateful for this!  Love to you all, Mary
