Potholes and roadblocks

Life is a journey and on any good journey there are potholes and roadblocks.

Although, throughout these last few...

Mixed signals

This week I want to talk about some of the physical side affects of my breast cancer surgery.

THIS WEEK SUCKED ASS

So you know how I talked about that migraine last week? Yeah, well that hung around for the whole week.

OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

I can’t decide if it’s a good thing or not but I completed radiation treatment on October 1st. It’s super weird and well, kinda spooky that I hit that milestone in my treatment plan at the start of the month dedicated to breast cancer awareness.

But if we look at it I’m the perfect example of what the month hopes to achieve. I ...
