Bye, Bye Booby. A glimpse of life from motherhood to mastectomies and everything in between. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. A Funeral for my Friend. I stare at the photo board in my mind. Photos of a you I didn’t know churn through my brain. Young, happy, hopeful; beautiful. Somehow as I look at these pictures, they don’t reconcile with the ones that I have filed in my memory. Older, exhausted, scared; every bit as beautiful. Grown ups say stupid shit. Your teenage daughter flops down next to me and asks m...

http://byebyebooby.blogspot.com/2012/10/my-story.html
Bye, Bye Booby. A glimpse of life from motherhood to mastectomies and everything in between. Monday, October 8, 2012. It wasn't until meeting and marrying my tremendously stable husband that I realized I was so tired of the drama. I had become a weary traveller on the road to love and had no idea what a wonderful, supportive, drama-free relationship looked or felt like. Enter my Breast Cancer. Cancer by it's nature is drama. Luckily it came up against the grown-up me instead of the adolescent me but ...

Bye, Bye Booby. A glimpse of life from motherhood to mastectomies and everything in between. Wednesday, September 26, 2012. There's a Monster Hiding Under My Bed. Photo by Eric Von Bargen. It seems I'm not so different with my Cancer. I can remember fear as a child. It hasn't changed much as an adult. I am still waiting, Counting Cars and hoping that the next phone call wont be my doctor telling me that I now have cancer somewhere else. Oh and as for protecting those around me from my fears? But in my mi...

Bye, Bye Booby: Where Am I…and What Have You Done with Me?

Bye, Bye Booby. A glimpse of life from motherhood to mastectomies and everything in between. Friday, May 23, 2014. Where Am I…and What Have You Done with Me? Cancer is not unlike war. We pray for relief. The mirror now reflects faces and bodies we do not recognize. Strangers in the place of ourselves. We practice our smile knowing that that smile is the key to the survival of the hopes and dreams for others. Our deceitful promise of the future we know will probably never come. Knowing that it won’t.
