Cancer circus continues…

MOST CURRENT UPDATE: Dr. will be communicating w/my oncologist & other doctors to see what other chemotherapy or other treatment options may be possible. The round of chemo given to me on Fri. had bad side effects for me.

Continuing the Cancer Fight!

Fighting Lymphoma!

Currently at a hospital getting tests, medicine, biopsies, etc. done so i can get treatment- chemo, potential radiation therapy.

Once i do 1 round of chemo & i’m okay, i can go home to continue chemo with my usual oncologist.

Hoping i will be in remission so i can have a bone- marrow transplant. My brother would be my donor.

Need help funding everything that stems from cancer costs!

Please help or share the link! I also have paypal & venmo.

Thank you for sharing! Some folks don’t care for gofund me, so here are- Other ways to donate:

Rocket is my spirit animal…

I cried during whole movie- start to end! Rocket is my spirit animal!

I’ve been battling cancer since 2020 & while i didn’t have the high evolutionary do this to me, i totally empathized immensely w/”being worked on,” for lack of a better phrase- RCHOP chemo, surgeries, meds, etc. That stress on self & body… just added to how i felt about Rocket’s story- and to how the Guardians family interacted w/him, etc.

My brother & i really enjoyed the movie- especially in 3D!

Cookie vs Cancer…

I wish I could express how incredibly tired & over- whelmed I am physically, emotionally and mentally. Diagnosis 2020- trying to get treatment and moving out of apt. 2021- treatment finally in mid/late 2022- and now 2023, covid for several wks. before chemo wrap up, and more appts./treatment(s) to keep me well beyond chemo and initial treatment. Not sure how much I have in me to go on at times… or even if I want to. I just try each day…

Massive feels…

So in theory, i’m done w/chemo, pending pet scan 1/31 & dr. visit to go over results.

Haven’t done anything to celebrate- would love to do virtual shin dig or whatnot but seeing this reminds me I need a pick me up, people, & the goofy stuff people do & say to show they care.

P.S. there’s also a weighted Eeyore that sighs on website. I tried to get one to take w/me during chemo, but no dice- for various financial reasons & the damn website wouldn’t let me use coupon/discount/whatever it’s called!

Feeling nauseous…

Has happened after last round of chemo & this current, and hopefully- last round- round 6.

There are a lot of meds i take the days after chemo- 10 pills 4 days after; then 9 pills 5 days after; then 4 pills the rest of time after chemo.

What adds to pill count are Prednisone (tue. through sat.) & nauseua pill i take 4 days after (tue. through fri.)

Ugh, will be happier when i take less pills & have less appointments.

It’s been awhile…

UPDATE: many thanks to my oncologist for prescribing antibiotics to help fight covid, while i also fight cancer.

Am feeling a lot better than when i got sick on 12/24- yeah i’ve been sick THAT long!

Tue. will be round 6 of chemo- should be my final round.

Then later on i’ll have a pet scan & dr. will look at results & determine next steps.

Given my lymphoma stems from my bone marrow transplant in 1978, there will be more appointments & treatments, etc. to help keep me well.

Chemo & beyond…

Appreciate the time I had off. Appreciate the time I had to attempt rest- even if real rest didn’t happen that easily or very much. However, I need income coming in (for myself & for my family), so back to work I go…

Appreciate the support & well wishes given!

• I’ll still do fundraisers given that:
• I have At Least 2 rounds of chemo left- will know more Tue. 12/13.
• After Chemo, I will have more tests, etc. to see how my bone marrow factors in to my health & to keep cancer at bay, etc. (Basically, ongoing maintenance)
