Sunday on social media it was all about my hair. What you got was snippets of moments throughout the morning. However, I find it rather cathartic to write about the experience in it’s entirety. It also may help another woman along the way. I had have a plan. I’ve never intended to wear wigs. They […]

Chemo #1 Down
I realize that I didn’t share my experiences with my first chemo infusion yet. It wasn’t because I don’t care about all of you. It was because the first 5 days sucked and then I went back to work. So grab your cup of coffee tea* and read a story. Last Friday was infusion day. […]
Lotsa Helping Hands
I love that I’ve had so many people say, “Let me know if you need anything.” It is sweet and makes me feel very loved. However, I think that what people forget is that individuals under an extreme amount of stress tend to be a bit ditzy. This is me. I haven’t slept a night […]

A very merry Christmas
Ok, this is the last time I’m going to write about Sweet Hope… this week. I know you are tired of getting brow beaten by me, but I can’t help it.? This is something I’m passionate about.? Even more so than how much I dislike Sarah Palin and that is saying a lot. Earlier this […]
