Blog Summary: Welcome to my blog. If you want to follow my story, you need to start reading the oldest post first which is at the very bottom or you can jump to it by going to June 2007 and look for 'My Big Announcement'. I am writing this blog so that I can keep my friends and family up on my dealings with breast cancer. I hope to reduce the number of phone calls I get by posting information here. Yes you can call me if you want because I like to hear what's going on in the outside world but you can keep up with how I am feeling by reading my blog. I have not listed my email address either but if you know me, you know how to contact me. I always welcome emails

Scrabble and back pain


Today I seem to be on the losing end of both. I have been totally trounced in scrabble three nights in a row. (I didn't play the cancer card or claim chemo brain but I did get all the crappy one point letters so I couldn't get any good words.) Also, after two nights of okay sleep the back pain has returned which means I woke up about 4 am.

I think I was successful in confusing my doctor. Sometimes its nice to be able to do this. I called the doctor on Wednesday to find out the results of my x-rays.

Then she called me back with the results and said I should see a specialist also on Wednesday. But yesterday she called again and said she wasn't sure if I had called again or if she had already talked to me. She was confused. I did talk to her. I just need the referral.

Today I am totally unsure what we are doing. My brother is trying to plan but let's just say that nothing is planned yet.

Yesterday we did go sledding and for a nice walk. (It was nice or too long depending on who you asked. My husband said too long. My niece and nephew said it was nice.) We also ate too much food again.
Today we hope to eat less.
