The normal daily routine of getting my son up to take his medications doesn’t stop for anything. Hearing the words in my head over and over… CANCER… My mother has beaten colorectal cancer just a few years ago. Her body still trying to recover from the chemo and radiation. Then having to have her arteries bypassed…

Run over that rainbow bridge til your hearts full of joy knowing the love and life you brought to this family. We can’t thank you enough for your presence. We hope you understand why we didn’t want you to suffer anymore. You no longer wagged your tail at dad’s presence. When dad asked if you…

We had planned on taking her to nc state oncology for her appointment but she can’t do anything for herself anymore. We tried to get her up but she just stands there leaning against you. No wagging her tail no nothing. She will definitely be missed. She was the alpha in this…
Originally posted 2019-02-22 08:04:09. We have a consultation with NC State Veterinary School’s Oncology Dept. to see what if anything can be done before the dreaded decision has to be made. My husband said he doesn’t want to make that decision. This was their findings. I.E. Cancer… Me and cancer this year … this mf’r needs to fuck off. She came home with a bunch of medications. She’s on the same neurontin as I am,…
Originally posted 2019-02-16 18:29:30. Can someone explain to me why this hurts so freaking much?! I watched the man who I share his DNA, who may not have been a father but he was my father. Then 7 months or so later have to watch my mother, the woman who brought me into this world, carried my through this world in so many different ways. Who I miss more than life itself. I want to…

So… he took three biopsies while he was in there. Thank goodness for what I call the Michael Jackson drug… sad that the drug is widely known as that but it is what it is. Bottom half of my body hurts, now the other…
Originally posted 2020-02-29 08:32:10. This is where I am right now. As much as I smile to hide through the pain this is me. I will admit it. It’s like I am almost not even feeling things the way I would normally. Am I depressed? Maybe so. I am not suicidal even though I will admit that after my momma’s passing all I wanted to do was be with her. The moment she passed I…
Originally posted 2023-04-13 09:00:00. FINALLY!! So I went and had the cancer testing done to see if I am genetically susceptible to getting cancer. Now, this doesn’t cancel out my risk since it is a family history thing but it doesn’t mean I will get it either. This is just to see if I from a genetic standpoint. I had the test done by UNC Oncology. The test was just a blood draw and that…
Originally posted 2018-04-27 10:54:54. Cancer has touched someone in just about everyone’s life. When a child gets cancer it has such a huge toll on the lives of the child and those treating them. I hope and pray one day they find a cure to cancer. Until that day they continue to research treatments more than folks realize. So much money, heart and lives have gone into finding the answers needed. If you know someone…
Originally posted 2019-12-30 07:38:22. Yeah, I wasn’t in a mood to try to figure out a fitting title this morning. As I sit here waiting for my pain medications to kick in I was just thinking. Though that’s hard for some of us natural blonde’s 😉 It started in 2017. My husband lost his grandmother so we went to Tampa to be with family. To celebrate her life, the matriarchal legacy. Even though I knew…
