Tuesday, June 22, 2010. Let the Chemo Beatings Continue. When I blog, I try to look on the bright side of things. It really doesn’t take much effort and as I’ve said before, I really feel that there are so many more “positive” things going on right now for me (oddly enough) than just. That all changed this week. I’m not sure what happened this week. I had my usual chemo appointment last Wednesday and the usual stress and deadlines of my job (turned down “low” because of. Are we at the 20-mile mark yet?

Welcome to CancerLand: May 2010

Sunday, May 30, 2010. The Sweet Days of Chemo. Anyway, during those four hours I was lucky to have a good friend at my side who was the perfect chemo companion. Although we had never really been through the experience of chemo, either together or individually, we hit a very nice balance between talk and silence, cheering and just being, normalcy and realizing that this was anything but a normal day. Thursday, May 27, 2010. The Ten Commandments of Chemo. 1 I Shall Maintain My Roots. I impulsively went to ...

Welcome to CancerLand: August 2010

Wednesday, August 18, 2010. Cloudy with a Chance of Spray Tan. So, the past few weeks have been pretty bad. Wah, wah, wah poor me. Palm Beach, Minnesota. Wren Hill Farm Eggs. One of my colleagues is a writer/gentleman farmer (see favorite links). The last time he was in town, he brought me a dozen farm fresh eggs. From his farm to my desk. What is it about eating eggs that haven’t actually been through the Target dairy case that is so intoxicating? Girls Gone Wild Weekends. We are simply wild! Blog: Clou...

Being the independent sort and the. You really like me! 8221; It is sometimes overwhelming to take it all in appropriately and to feel so “lucky” in the middle of such an otherwise stressful time.

Welcome to CancerLand: Happy Bald Birthday To Me
http://welcometocancerland.blogspot.com/2010/06/happy-bald-birthday-to-me.html
Saturday, June 12, 2010. Happy Bald Birthday To Me. Today is my 55th birthday. Today I am bald. In some ways today is the final step or the first step in publicly having breast cancer. What a mind blower. I am sitting here watching "The Young Victoria" (she has a lot of hair) with a little turban number on my head. Who would have ever thought? Next: Coping With Bald. And much more information you never wanted to know.). March 17, 2011 at 2:58 AM. She made up for it by treating herself to a whole set of E...

Sunday, July 18, 2010. God Bless The Goalie. This blog was written about two weeks ago the night before my last “butt kicking” chemo treatment. It’s not the most uplifting blog, but it does tell it like it is. Since then, I’ve switched over to a less virulent form of chemo and the side effects so far have been much, much less (Score! Kind of endurance that you need to build up in order to survive. It is a take-no-prisoners and get-the-hell-out-of-the-way kind of survival. Giles Gratton, former netminder.
