Living Hell ~ But Life Is Good

I will tell you the truth without sugar coating it, hot flashes are like a LIVING HELL!

Miserable. I am having a hard time coping. Our PG&E bill will probably be at least $500 this month.

But, then there is Blaker - hilarious!

Life Is Good!

After we spoke, I hunted for my hand-held battery operated fans...both had broken propellers :-( I'll look for some...one for you, me and Debbie Y

Hang in there James...
Hugs and Support,

This blog was created as a means to share accurate information with my loved ones during my treatment. As I embark on Life After Cancer, the blog will continue. I'm not sure what lies ahead but plan on sharing the good, the bad and the ugly. In the end, I am certain of one thing, Life Is Good.

Please refer to this blog only as one young woman's journey with cancer, one young pregnant woman. Nothing in this blog is intended to be used as medical advice, legal advice or scientific evidence. Everything contained in this blog is simply an expression of my opinion and a reflection of my individual experience of being pregnant with cancer. Yes, I'm a lawyer.
