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)!

Countdown to Grand Baby # 3.......

I am planning on becoming a Grandma for the 3rd time tomorrow....Maribeth and Dan have to be at the hospital at  eight in the AM - and she is scheduled to be induced then.  I know what you may be thinking.....sometimes it doesn't make the baby be born.   But let's not forget some positive thinking and prayers - all will be well.  I told  Maribeth to enjoy her last day of being a DINK - must be an old term because she didn't know that it used to mean "DOUBLE INCOME NO KIDS".   She also heard several stories over the weekend at Deer Camp - about inductions that didn't lead to a child, or maybe it was many, many hours later.  I hope she gets a good night sleep tonight and doesn't think about the negative stories.  She is a very strong girl, so I know she'll do great and her and Dan will be great parents, for sure.

I was able to get two nice walks at Forest Park this weekend, thanks to some nice warm but windy weather.  I will try to keep up the walking, but I have to say I need a couple Tylenol tonight for a tender back.

Very excited for all that is happening this week - even my Chemo on Thursday because I will be 50% done with Chemo after Thursday.

Blue Eyed  Baby Girl - coming soon!
