must.... slow.... down...... and hot!
I feel like the past weeks since treatment ended have been a blur. Ben was knighted, I had Tribal Fest, and my life is taking on the characteristics of a demanding 2 year old. I'm trying to catch up and re-evaluating. I still haven't finished sending out presents from last Christmas. If I am behind on something for you, I'm sorry. I'm trying to get there.
Last Thursday I went to see my oncologist, my one month follow up. He gave me Tamoxifen, which I started taking last Friday. My hot flashes had reduced significantly... I think I was only getting a couple a day. But now I'm back to having them all the time. And I mean ALL the time. Whew.
I've been so sore all over from using my body again.... and so tired. I'm going to bed and getting up with Zoom most of the time, except a few nights I defy it and stay up for a bit to get some things done. Can't do it for too long though... in fact I'm having trouble staying awake now..... good night!

It must be very difficult to keep in mind what you've gone through when the very thing that is logical is to throw off the cloak of the past months and live hard... But you are an amazingly indefeatable strong woman! At least you're up and doing again... sure you may have to rest more... but you're doing... and being... and dancing!
Much love to you!
See you at Pennsic!
(which will hopefully be a cool one for you ;) )
Can't wait to see you at Pennsic!
Yes thank you....it is hard to remember to take it easy on myself. I was just reminding myself this morning.
You may have heard that Anahid did a one-woman show in May! She was spectacular, of course and did some unusual non-belly dance things! And the musicians were so good I could have swooned!
*hug*
xoxo to you, and take care of yourself!
