My Breast Cancer Update: Being Positive.
I am slowly learning that being positive is not only about projecting a positive attitude. Being positive is also about choosing to see the good in life. Through my family and friends and the power of encouragement I know that things are getting better.
Weekends are for fun and time well spent with family and friends. I try to enjoy myself, but it can be difficult when I know that Monday I have another infusion. This past weekend I met my new nephew who was born just a couple of weeks ago. Although I wish I had more energy now so I could be more helpful, I am super excited that this chemo nonsense will be an old memory by the time I am able to have some real fun with him. I am already imagining Auntie outings with him.
So as I type this from my 10th of 16 infusions, I am doing my best to stay positive. I am well over the half-way point, and I will continue to push towards the finish line.
Much love to you all.
