Home and Well!

So the treatment went by pretty fast for me, and now that it's over it wasn't all that bad considering it's going to save my life, cross your fingers! The part I thought was going to be the hardest was shaving my head but guess what, you were all right, i even look good bald! Really it's actually kind of nice not having to dry my hair or even brush it! just throw on whatevr wig i feel like wearing that day and im done! I go back on April 6th for a check up and they tell me that they can tell if it's not working, but they can't tell if it is working for about another month after that. I feel good, just don't have alot of energy but the docs. say that will take awhile to come back. It's soooooo good to be home with the family. It's funny, somebody on the plane asked me if I have changed the way I look at my life, I told them NO i've always known how awesome of a life i have is, what has changed is how I look at other people's lives. It's so hard for me to listen to any BS that just doesn't matter from anyone now, and I hope you all remember that it's all BS! Please appreciate everything and everyone you have, that way when life throws you a curve ball your ready for it! Love you all!

  1. Nicely put, Amanda. It is so good to hear from you again. I am happy you are home with the family. As I am sure they are happy to have you home too. Post some pictures of yourself. So I can see that beautiful bald head of yours. If not bald at least with the cute wigs you have chosen. I look forward to your posts. I check everyday to see if you have said anything. I am happy that you are doing well. Your positive attitude is wonderful. I love you and take care! Monica and family

  3. You're unbelievable Amanda. Can I have 1/2 of what you have :)? I'm so happy to hear that your spirits are still so high up. You'll beat this thing before you know it. It's all just a drop in the bucket. I love you and think about you a lot. Hang in there cookie.
