Not really! I did dream last night that Dr Rose told me we had to do surgery immediately since I was scheduled to be on Oprah. For those of you that don't know, I hate speaking in public and hate crying in front of other people, so being put on Oprah's show put me into a bit of "tizzy" in my dream. I know my mind is trying to work out "issues" and I thought this one was kind of funny! I kept trying to figure out in my dream how Oprah heard about me since we've only told family and friends about the breast cancer.
Read a great book yesterday, Cancer Has Its Privileges: Stories of Hope and Laughter by Christine Clifford. Funny and well worth the quick read. I am also reading Dr Susan Love's Breast Book. Good information and detail.
I want to thank every one for the wonderful emails, notes and phone calls, you just don't know how much they help me stay focused and keep me from feeling alone. Knowing you have a "team" of family and friends cheering you on is so amazing. THANK YOU ALL. Special thanks to my sister, who manages to call me almost everyday but doesn't always make it sound like she is checking on my mental state. My mother needs a big thank you for understanding cancer (she is a survivor) and talking with me about the different kind of treatments along with my fears. Mom has also been a caregiver (to my father) and will be a great resource for Eddy. I want to thank my friend, Jen McHale-Hall, who listened to me when first diagnosed, listened to me some more, invited me for walks, brought me my favorite chai from Fins (non-fat milk, thank you) and brought little Miss Amara over for visits.
Signing off for today....need to clean house.
