Ellen Updates

I took an unexpected break from posting because, well, chemotherapy is pretty monotonous. And, unexpected that the A/C would overlap with the Taxol (perhaps not unexpected to those who research their treatment), causing some intense fatigue.

But, good news is that last week was 6 out of 12 treatments! The bummer is that there isn’t a lot of energy to celebrate.

There isn’t much new to report other than my goal is to try and stay on track for the last six treatments. Cold and flu season, along with COVID, makes this feel a bit like an obstacle course of guarding my crappy immune system from catching anything.

Thank you again to everyone for texts, calls, cards, packages, flowers and food. Please know I am thinking of all of you and sending good energy into the universe for each and every one of you.

Oh! And October is breast cancer awareness month. If you put off getting a mammogram and are overdue, now is the time! 😘
