Round Two... Ding...Ding...Ding...

Today was my second Chemotherapy treatment! Each treatment being set to be progressively worse, plus the accumulative added Chemo on top of Chemo. The tired hit me a lot quicker this time around then last time. Also they have added more medications to my plethora of medications to help keep me from getting sick to my stomach, plus to help keep the heartburn from getting to horrible this time around! The nausea will also be controlled by these new medications! So I am hoping the tired and the "chemo brain" are the worst I will have to endure again this time around!

I have to say I have the best husband, kids, family, and friends in the whole world!! This is a lot to deal with, but I am very aware my loved ones are right here beside me and I will not ever forget it!! I will be able to pay forward all of the love, caring, and thoughtfulness that has been shared with me! I will someday be able to be there for all of you!!

On another note, I did get my labs back and they are still within the okay range, so I was able to continue with my Chemotherapy today! And I spoke with my GYN, who confirmed that yes indeed, my Cervical Cancer is still there and that it has NOT progressed any! Which we had a feeling it would still be there, that the surgery did not in fact get everything, however, it did not go any further! Which is a good thing! This means we can continue to just keep an eye on it throughout the Chemotherapy for the Breast Cancer. After the Chemotherapy is complete will will be moving forward with a complete radical hysterectomy! This will remedy the Cervical Cancer that I cannot seem to shake, and the hormones that my body produces that help my Breast Cancer Cells grow! And, well hey let's face it, no more Cycles!! There is a silver lining somewhere in every black hole! The silver lining to my Breast Cancer, well there are a lot of black holes, but to each black holes, there really is a silver lining! I get to show my kids that beauty is not always what society portrays it to be! I get to show my kids that strength may not be getting up and doing the normal things, but maybe it is what God gives you the ability to do that day. I get to show my daughter that breasts, no matter weather you have them or not, they are not as important as other things! And among many other things, I get to show myself that no matter what life throws at me, I will kick it's ASS!

Along with these updates I have also had some professional pictures done for a few different reasons, but I will ALWAYS be able to look back on these and know I kicked Cancers Ass, more than once!
