I have two more weeks to go and I am taking it one day at a time. God has been so good to me. I talk to people around me in the infusion center where the chemo is given and they tell me about the side affects they have and I sometimes feel a little bad to share my recovery with them because I have not had any of the side affects that chemo usually tries to give people except hair loss and even that is growing back now. I shouldn't feel bad...I should be shouting it from the roof tops. God is Good and when you put him first as the leader of your soul, you cant go wrong. His spirit wont let you. God continue to bless me, I am not ashamed of the blessings you have bestowed on me. God you are so sweet. His word says, "Test me and see." He will not let you down.
You are a very pretty lady. I'm related to Pastor Lands so that is how I became a friend via Facebook. I was just diagnosed (after several years of misdiagnosis)with Hashimoto Disease. I know sounds like some type of Asian flu. :>) This disease attacks the thyroid which makes it under-perform. I began losing my hair in 2002 during my pregnancy and attributed it to my condition. Well, it was the disease that was intensified by the pregnancy. I lost so much hair (nearly 60%)and never it has never grown back. But my lesson learned..beauty is only skin deep it's what's inside that really matters.
ReplyDeleteHi Mona, I'm glad that you've found such a constructive way of being there for others, as you go through the healing process. Once upon a time (a while back), my wife had stage 3 cancer and as newly weds we had an abrupt initiation in terms of how life revolves around the treatment schedules.
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog, but not new to you (oYe), so rather than delving into questions, I'm going to play catch-up by actually reading :o) My ex-wife is a cancer survivor, my years in the medical field as a health care administrator and the relationships with the Docs & staff were a huge Blessing in terms of navigating the course medically. I say all "that" to say this... for you to have been dealing with all this since January, and to have had the mindset to be positive and reach out to others is very cool. I have great memories of accompanying my wife to Chemo & Radiation for over a year, and it's the people who face "dis-ease" with courage like yours that inspire others in ways that none of us could possibly imagine. Just wanted to let you know that I've noticed and am truly impressed with your inner beauty giving such a good fight in competing with the outer beauty. Come over to my blog when time permits.
Namaste (Google the meaning for kicks)
JM
On second thought, a true gentleman Googles for the Lady ;o)
