I won’t say today has been a sad day, but it has been kind of a blah day. It’s dark and dreary outside, I had to say goodbye to my sweet little girl for a few days, I’m officially really losing my hair…. And it’s going fast. So I may have been a little less peppy today. Until now.
I’m sitting here at the Spectrum Lemon Holton infusion center, reading Crazy Sexy Cancer by Kris Carr, which is very good by the way… and chatting with my amazing chemo infusion nurse Seay, when one of the other nurses hands me a little gift that was dropped off for me. In a pink bag of course.
My new friend Kim, whom I have not met in person, but is following this page and going through all of this newly diagnosed “breast cancer” stuff along with me; heard I wasn’t sleeping so she put together an essential oil cream to help me. Plus she paired it with this awesome card. To further that literally 5 minutes later a new and wonderful chemo buddy Ann brought me over a pink ribbon pin and the gift of her optimistic conversation. Oddly I had been planning to purchase a pin for my chemo bag so Ann was just inside my head today.
I honestly cannot believe how amazing my support system is. I do feel the love and my pep is back.
