I have to admit...this blog hasn't crossed my mind. It probably has something to do with the fact that my life has made a major turn! Cancer is now the last thing on my mind these days...instead it is filled with feedings, burpings, changing diapers, dressing, laundry, laundry, did I mention laundry, and then all the normal stuff I use to do.... like hanging out with my totally awesome 4 year old. Life is funny sometimes. Yes....we have a couple babies in the house. I would totally start a new blog about that but I don't think I would have time to update it. We are currently fostering a 2 month old baby boy "baby little head" who we took from the NICU at 2 weeks old...and then we are fostering a 5 month old baby boy "baby big head" who we took from protective custody when he was involved in a robbery! LOL I'm hoping this kid got his wild streak out of the way at 5 months old. He is our little gangsta! Both babies are possible adoptions for us and we are praying every night that.... #1 they will sleep through the night #2 that we will live through this baby stage and #3 that of course they will both become part of our family. We have already fallen in love with them, how could you not!
Besides not being able to leave the house on a regular basis, shower most days and brushing teeth has become a luxury we always took for granted....life has been good for us. We are settling into our home that is now FULL of baby stuff. My next CT scan is in August and I have to tell you, when I start to think about it, it kind of freaks me out. OK, it freaks me out big time....but I can't live my life like that and I continue to just live it one day at a time and enjoy every moment I am loving on my husband, daughter and two babies. I have felt pretty good. I am still taking daily shots of Lovenox (blood thinner) due to my pulmonary embolism, which I will really see how that is doing on my CT scan in August. I'm confident it is healed, as I am not short of breath anymore.
I feel like my job aside from being a wife and mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, etc.... is to help friends close to me that are going through this cancer journey. I have far too many people in my life that I email, text, call, and constantly pray for that are currently on their own cancer journey. I feel that I am of some help (I hope I am) having been in their shoes and felt their feelings and cried their tears. I am thankful I can be here for them. I continue to fight cancer right along with them.
