I am not my Hair!! nor my Breast Cancer!

As we all know, when a person starts chemo treatments, the most common side effect is hair loss. And I'm not exception to the rule. With my first treatment, nothing really changed appearance wise. I looked as Fabulous as can be, as least when I was woke. lol. But with the second round of treatments, a day or so later I was brushing my hair, and it was coming out in clumps.

I was a little bummed out at first, but I knew it was coming. I had kinda prepared my self for it mentally. Because I knew it was going to happen. So the next day, I decided to go ahead and cut it off. I went into the bathroom grabbed the scissors, and started cutting. Then I asked my supportive husband to assist me. He got out the clippers and cut away. I almost cried, but I held it in.

I mean I'm Fabulous I can ROCK a bald head. let me say that again I mean I'm Fabulous I can ROCK a bald head. I always wanted to cut it off, but my husband wouldn't approve. Granted I wouldn't went all the way bald, but it would have been really short though.

So now that is all off, I feel kinda liberated, like I don't have to prove anything anymore. ( I feel like I need a hat, because my head cold, but that's another story). As a women, if you can rock a bald head out in the world and still feel Fabulous, you're pretty much the BOMB.. lol....at least I am!!

I'm Good Today

Well it's been 4 days since my chemo treatments, and I feel just fine. but the last couple of days I wasn't feeling to good. It hasn't been like the first round of chemo though. After the first round I was comatose for at least 4 days, I don't really remember what happened in those days. But this round was a lot different, I didn't sleep the 4 days aways, I just kinda napped it away, but I remember everything, I even got to attend my daughter's recital. Thank Jesus!. Some other things I had to sit out for, but all in all I feel just fine. Yesterday I had a bad stomach ache, and I was nausea, but today I'm good.

I just want to say Thank you for all the prayers and encouraging words. I really appreciate them. I love all of my readers

She's a natural

On May 6 my daughter had a dance recital. And she is a natural just like her momma. (yeah I said it). She does ballet, tap and jazz at just 5 yrs old. They were all cute and dressed in blue. They had 3 costume changes all in blue. I swear girls were made to dance. they were too adorable.

(my baby is in the middle)

I wish she had a dance recital every month. Right now she is dancing through the school program. But next year she will go to the official dance school with the big girls. Hopefully one day she will do competitions, but if she doesn't it's just fine. I just want her to have fun.

And I am thanking God that I was able to attend her recital the day after my chemo. I was a little tired, but not to tired to miss my babies performance. Thank you Jesus!

2 down 6 to go...Chemo Treatments that is...

Well I had my 2nd dose of Chemo on May 5, 2009. And I can honestly say I don't want to do that again. But I have 6 more to go. And I promise I am going to be strong about it, not only for me but for my husband and kids. Especially my princess. And as I said before I was pretty cute when I walked in with my head held high. I took my chemo like a champ, even though that's the last place on earth I would rather be. Personally I wish I could be shopping, but that just me.

But I did get some good news from my Dr. She said that my lump has shrunk, a lot even though I had only had 1 treatment. And she also so that she if for certain that I will make a full recovery. Not that I was worried, I know GOD has something better in store for me and my family.

I don't have time to feel sorry for my self, I'm to busy Fighting.
