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)!

Insomnia means blogging

It is so wonderful that I cannot sleep tonight. I cannot really complain about 4 hours of sleep! I know a couple of Dillies (aka Melissa and Maribeth, my new mommy daughter- in- laws) who would be thrilled with 4 solid hours of uninterrupted sleep.

I just checked the Bluebarry Tea I was drinking last night and it has caffeine, so it is my fault, plus the chemo night sweats. If you did not know, I have completed 75% of my chemo sessions as of yesterday, and the chemo pods were all full of young adults to the more mature adults fighting the cancer fight. Thank you again for your prayers that my journey is gentle on me. I totally enjoyed my benedryl nap, and hope I don't snore.

It is going to be a busy weekend, as I prepare for my family from Beijing to arrive this week!
Also going to Michael Smith concert with all my sibs on saturday nite. I hope you will take some time for yourself this weekend, too!

Love Mary
