I know this is not news to any of my readers because I was diagnosed before Thanksgiving. However I have put off putting it in print on my Blog but decided I needed to do it now. Many weeks have gone by and much has happened. My diagnosis is Breast Cancer, stage 4. They determined that it was estrogen fed and I started with a pill to stop the estrogen. After 2 months they said the pill wasn't working so I have started Chemo. I am now in my 5 week. I started at Vanderbilt and am now taking my treatments in Mississippi. At Vanderbilt they put a "port" in my chest for my blood work and meds. It works just fine and I don't have to let all those nurses butcher up my arm because they can't find a vain. I have tolerated the chemo very well I think. I have not been sick at all but sometimes after a couple of days I get a little tired.
I have however lost all my hair and had to go wig shopping. I had fun with that but I still wear a baseball cap most of the time. I found a wig that looked just like my real hair. I also bought a blond one (just for fun). Also for fun I tried on a gray one and Lex took a picture and I sent it to my Boys for a reaction. Eric said I was freaking him out! Anyway I am putting a picture of me in all my many faces. You can vote on them if you like.

They look GREAT! Gray doesn't suit you, you're too young!
