Paused

I feel like I'm on pause. I can't move forward until I get well. I can't do anything, and it hurts. I can't do anything with my kids because I'm tired asf. I want to talk, but then I don't because I don't wanna complain. I'm so damn weird!! It's like I don't wanna burden anyone with my illness.

Constant bone & joint pain, constant nerve pain....what else can hurt ya know.  Oh yeah my heart, my emotions are all over the place, but I try to be strong. Truth be told, I'm an emotional mess. How do you handle your emotions, but you not want to conceived as weak.

Cancer and chemo are nothing to play with! They will break you, and it's in every aspect of breaking, physically, emotionally, and mentally.  Then you see everyone else living their best life, while you are just trying to live, period. I try to find happiness on my good days, but those are few and far in between. I always feel better about 3-4 days before I have to have chemo again. So, I try to do things, anything just to feel normal.

I'm going to beat this, period!! Yesterday was chemo day, and I'm not feeling it at all. I'm so tired,  nauseous, swollen, and achy. I'm also losing my hair now, and it takes about a week for it to be completely gone. Not sure how I feel about this tbh. I'm glad I'm shaved my head so that I'm be kinda prepared. I think I would've freaked out finding chunks of hair in my bed or on my pillow. This feeling of going to sleep and waking up with cancer is crazy as heck!! It's hard for me not to feel lonely because no one can really understand what I'm going through. But, my support system is absolutely amazing!! I couldn't ask for anything more. It's just so hard because I still try to be like I wa before cancer. I try to do things, be active,  and when I do too much my body will sit me down. The mind is willing, but the body isn't. Let's not mention eating...ugh!! Nothing has taste, and nausea won't let me be great!! So, I drin...

A Surgery Date...Finally!!!!

 ðŸ’¯Man, this is so crazy yo!!💯  I've been waiting for this date for over a year.  November 3, 2020, will be like a rebirth for me physically.  Like, I am actually excited, nervous, anxious, etc.  I mean this is one of the biggest surgeries I have ever had.  I mean the mastectomy was a huge deal, but this is Breast DIEP Flap surgery; DIEP stands for Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator.  With the DIEP Flap surgery the lower abdominal skin and fat is removed without having to harvest any of the rectus abdominis muscle.  Then, with the skin and fat from my stomach the plastic surgeons will reconstruct me a new breast, and perform a lift on the other breast to make them even.  Oh and I will be having my stomach muscles tightened up and hernia removed as well.  I won't have a bellybutton, but my plastic surgeon says he can make me a pretty one a later date!!!   I can't lie ya girl is LIT ASF about getting this surgery done, but more...

Mode

So, I've had my mastectomy, my drains removed (scars from my drains), and now I'm getting expanded for my reconstructive surgery.  You see things have changed, but I'm still gonna keep it pushing. I'm moving into Goddess from Queen level up mode. This mode requires me to protect me and my energy at all times. You see I know that there is one waiting for the worse, but I'm the one that just hurt your feelings. You see, I'm going to always be A-1 ya dig!!! This cancer did it's thang to me physically, mentally, and emotionally I can't lie about that, but now I'm in control like my girl Janet said. I don't care if you think I'm ugly or bald headed because I'm still cute with dimples and the hips of a Goddess in the words of Trina...I'm the baddest. So, many have worried about all the wrong ish, and it's ok. Because you can't understand what you haven't and hopefully won't ever have to go thru with this cancer shit. My ...
