I have done too much cooking. More than my body was ready for. Did it to myself. I need to relax my body and my standards.
A Better Day in Hi
Today was better than yesterday.
Sunday B4 Christmas in Hi
I am thankful that I am cancer free (for now). Ovarian cancer is known to be tricky, even after the ovaries and everything else is gone. Tomorrow I am 10 weeks post op. I thought I would be f...
I Was Wrong! in Hi
The results of my CT scan showed no sign of cancer. None at all, not even in the lymph nodes. I will continue to be monitored every quarter and continue on my anti hormone pills. I am more tha...
I finally get the results of my scan. This is the first time they didn’t put the results in the portal before my appointment. Wonder if that is significant? I know from the way I feel that so...
Today is my first post surgery CT scan. Y’all, I really hate needles! I am a “hard stick” and it’s always a challenge for the person on the other side of the IV and for me. I guess I will get...
I have a CT scan scheduled for next week to rule out a tumor. I hate needles & IV’s and all of that because I have tiny, invisible veins. Those that stick me hate it too. I have decided I...
Thanksgiving in Hi
This will be one of the few Thanksgiving’s that I haven’t cooked. We have reservations at a golf club for a buffet lunch. My son is coming from New Braunsfel and his son is coming from his Mom...
Today was the best day since surgery! I was able to move better - do stuff. I washed the kitchen sinks out and cleaned the countertops and the top of the stove. I was able to start picking up...
I am 6 weeks post op today. They said it would take 6 - 8 weeks to heal. I am better, but not healed yet. I am going to start working on my stamina. Need to be able to walk a distance. Tr...
Today i drove myself (nearby) with my pillow guarding my stomach to get my nails done. Just a little trip out of the house two days in a row made a big difference in my perspective. Gary cut u...
I made it to church today. Even wore a pair of zip up jeans. I was a little wobbly, but I am recovering from the surgery. Finally, feeling progress. Hope those HRT pills are doing their job....
129.6 this morning. I haven’t weighed in m the 120’s since I was in my twenties. I have no appetite. Yesterday I did manage 2 yogurts and that is really good for me. Please don’t recommend p...
A friend of mine drove across Houston today to visit me. She picked us up lunch and folded my clean laundry. She is the first person ( other than my husband, of course) that I have felt comfor...
I have stage 3C. We are going to begin today with hormone replacement therapy and I will have CT scan in 3 months to see if it is working. I will also have genetic testing. If hormone replace...
My gynecologist/oncologist appointment is this afternoon. It has been 3 weeks since my surgery. Today, I find out the results of my pathology and my treatment plan. I have been impatiently wa...
Yes, you can in Hi
Be too skinny! I never thought I would be, but here I am. I look horrible. I haven’t gotten up for the day, but I will in a minute. Yesterday I weighed 133. Wonder how much today? I didn...
Forgot to push publish yesterday. Today I have kept down a yogurt and an ice cream sandwich. Not testing anything else. Got my mail in ballot and completed it. Two weeks ago was my surgery.
Today was a down day. I have only kept down 3 crackers and a little water. That’s with the nausea meds. My brother texted me bright and early to see if I was up and getting ready for church. ...
Pain in the …. in Hi
I have a bed sore on my behind. Ordered topical and bandages from Amazon. Should be on the porch in the morning. Feeling nauseous tonight. Hope I can sleep. I guess this is going to be wher...
No Secrets in Hi
Not that I really had a bunch. My husband and I have been together almost 30 years and there were just a couple of bodily functions I had kept to myself. No longer. He has seen and heard ever...
Getting Around in Hi
I am getting around pretty good. A week makes a world of difference. I am able to shower normally, walk around the house, etc. I am not supposed to actually “do” anything. I am already bored...
When I was in the hospital in Hi
They treated me as though I were elderly. Prior to all this mess I went to the Y 4 days a week. I am a proportional height and weight. There is nothing about me that reads elderly. They aske...
I got home from the hospital Thursday morning. The only real info I got was, Yes, it was ovarion cancer and had spread to other organs. Ovarian is rarely found in the early stages. Now, I s...
At 7:00 is my surgery. Check into hospital at 5:30 AM.
