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)!

Middle of the night posts -

OK , Insominia is not a terrible thing- lots can be accomplished in the silence of the night....(can't think of anything right now).
 Yesterday was my dad's 85th birthday and we hosted his party of "BOB's"  There were 12 at his lunch table of some of oldest friends - with a 4 course meal served by his daughters at Joanne's house.  Five of the guys are names Bob, two John's, Nic, Leonard, Charlie, Don, and Phil.   Mr. Westrich said he wished his kids would do this for him for his birthday- that's a nice compliment!  This is the 4th year they've gotten together for Dad's birthday, thanks to Joanne who has been named "king of the family" by my Grandson Dylan for pulling this off.
Every plate of  food was consumed, lots of wonderful conversation and friendship!  Happy 85th Dad and many healthy happy more!
:) Love, Mary
