I’m happy to report, after a week of the chemo pill, I feel AMAZING🙏. Some small side effects, but I assumed there would be some.  I’m ready 😎. I also feel “blanketed” in prayer for lack of a better way to describe it.  Thank you all❤️.

I’m getting some sleep so that is definitely a WIN.  It’s the prednisone, but I’m grateful to have. I’ll have blood test once a week starting today and full scans at 12 weeks. I am SO strong, but absolutely scared to death about getting those scans back to see how the pill is working to be honest with you.😔 

The bracelet in my picture is from my friend @thelesasmaligo.  Lesa is my husband’s business partner and soon become one of my dearest friends. 🥰 Lesa would literally do anything for me, and I know it! After her own battle with cancer she gave me her (now my) bracelet for strength on my journey.💕❤️

Something else I would like to share is right before this cancer finding, I told my family I thought people should have FUNERAL/BIRTHDAYS.  I of course got the, “Mom!” and “too far” look I tend to get when I say things like this.  But think about it… birthdays are great.  Friends show up, they celebrate you with cake and gifts and you are the center of attention.  But at your funeral people speak about how they really feel about you, say things they wish they would have told you, talk about acts of kindness and awesome stories maybe no one knew about.  There is usually a gathering afterward with food and drinks and you’re still the center of atttention -but in a different way and not one you get to hear about or enjoy.  There is a religous aspect to the entire event; so I’d say a great celebration.  Kind of dark, but I honeslty don’t think I am wrong, just maybe need to rename/brand it. 🤔

Here’s to your day being as AWESOME as mine.  I wouldn’t wish this on anyone but it is odd to say I’ve never been happier.  I don’t care about ANY small stuff, I literally walk around with a smile on my face all day long, have slowed WAY down (gosh that’s nice), spend time with loved ones and friends, sing along to my songs on my walks and tell everyone how I feel about them and that I love them.☺️ 

Have a blessed day, I know I am🙏
