@ShowMeHello, I just got done reading your replys and wow you are a very strong lady to be handling everything life has put your way. And to be in such good spirits instead of reacting with hate and bitterness, says a lot about the kind of person you are. Must be alot of love within your heart. It is a blessing that the cancer is gone from your heart and I believe that if we accept humbly what comes our way that it is not unnoticed by God and then the blessing will come. The people who cannot accept unfortunate things, and react with anger, I believe suffer more here. So keep filling your space with love and more love will come your way.
I dont know a whole lot of what is like to take treatments for cancer. But it does sound like you cook, and that is good that you can still do that. I love to cook. I feel sorry for you that you cant clean your appartment cause i really love cleaning, yeah I know I am weird!!! Kinda OCD when it comes to cleaning but I do enjoy it really. I am glad you have help with getting that done, but wow that would be hard for me to give up, I like decorating and cleaning my space, makes me feel good.
Do you have to wear the port all the time? So you have this medicine going into your body all the time? If so that means you dont ever get a break from the side effects. Wow that would be something. If it was only every couple months that would be easier to deal with, but all the time would be harder. You said you dont want the alternative, what is the alternative?
I think you will get to accomplish all the things you still want to do and I think you are a very positive person and it is very good to keep wanting to accomplish more. I dont think it ever good to give up on wanting to do something. We should have a list of things and be trying to achive them until our last day.
As far as the sun thing, while I was very young my mom was too over protective so we were not out side much, so I have not had alot of sun exposure while young. When I started working and got interested in boys and dating, I did the tanning bed thing, but then again not too much.
I am fair skinned, but then am into horses, so I have been riding since I was a teenager and been in the sun too much because of horse shows!! So I do think about the skin cancer thing because of my face, ears, neck and arms being exposed while riding or showing.
That is a scary thing. I like josie maran tanning oil now, I try to protect myself, but I still have a horse and love hiking outdoors and garderning and well I love the sun, so now I do use sunscreen, but hate that!!! I am 48 now.
I think you are lucky to have such a wonderful sister, that loves you!! I have one sister and we do not get along, long story but she is not nice at all
I had a brother. but he died of a drug overdose, miss he soooo much, he was wonderful. My dad died in 1996, he was 72 yrs old. My mom is 87 and is in a home. I am gonna do another post cause this one is getting too long
