I woke this morning
with no headache
and no numbness
Yay.
Though my brain feels “sore”
My muscles and joints
don’t hurt as bad
nor does my breast
though there is still pain there.
still…
I am working on my eBay today…

I’m very concerned about the current
changes in
my breast
and the
pain in
my breast
my chest
my joints
my muscles
my long bones
my headaches
I moved up my monthly blood draw and
Zometa infusion to today
Though when I went to the Center, I discovered that
I was supposed to be there last Friday…
Oops
Anyway
Hope to have the blood work back by Tuesday.
My next PET/CT scan is scheduled for
the end of February
but I left a message with Dr. DeLeon
that I want to move it to ASAP.
Hope to have that done by next
Wednesday, so we can get the
results by Friday.
Then we can see what is happening.
And make some
changes, decisions
if needed.
But for tonight
Christine called
so I am going to have dinner
with Her & Rob
then to their home
and play some games
I need the company.

Got up early today and went to Curves,
I’m enjoying the exercise
but
I was supposed to have
items up for sale on eBay by now
I have not
I am very concerned about the
Changes in the lump in my breast
Scared
Petrified
It seems that it is becoming
swollen
a feeling of
fullness
each day
and the pain
jabs
are still there
a feeling of
a pulled muscle
in the breast
I’m sure that
the stresses from everything
are contributing factors
The depression from
Loss of my job
The depression from
Christmas and New Year
Being alone
The month of
Eating
Drinking
Doing
Things I should not have
Easy to say that
I need to
Take better care
of myself
Easy to say
unless it is
too late…?
A possibility…

All the aches and pains are scaring me
I have barely been able to function
I hope this is weather-related
all the cold
and the front that had barreled through
My breast is still hurting
and I think the lump has grown some
I’m not totally sure
but it seems that it might have.
And now I have a new pain in my breast area
a sharp pain
when I move in certain ways
not sure what is about
I’m scared
I just want to stay in bed
even though I know
it’s not the best thing to do.

A few days back
I wrote about how I was having
breast pain
and I still am
now
I also ache
my joints
my bones
my spine
my tailbone
my long bones
It hurts
to climb the stairs
to bend to sit
to extend to rise
It aches to move
I have a headache
that feels like an electric current
running through my brain
is this some weird recurrence of reaction
to one of the meds
excessive bone and joint pain
muscle aches
or
is this the drop
of the other shoe
it always drops
is this the drop?
I just want to stay in bed.

When I heard of this loss today, I just cried and cried. I did not personally know Shawn Felty, but – despite his own battle with colon cancer – he went out of his way to donate to my fund, and to offer words of encouragement. I sent a “Thank You” as I truly was grateful, but I did not keep in touch with him. I have let my battle overshadow the fact that I should keep in touch with the people who have reached out to me.
It is no excuse, it is simply fact. It is difficult when you are struggling to do everything yourself, everything by yourself, and are so tired by the end of the day, so tired by the beginning of the day, so tired to add more to the list… I will strive to do better… somehow…
“On December 13, 2009 at 4:30 pm, Shawn Felty passed peacefully surrounded by family and close friends. He was loved by many, with nearly 100 teammates, fellow actors, colleagues, cancer survivors, cancer fighters, Colondar models and friends visiting him over the last few days. For two years he battled this disease with incredible strength and extraordinary grace and he was inspiration to all who knew him. The world lost an amazing man today, but he left behind a perfect example of perseverance, fortitude and friendship.”
