BIG DAY .... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today started off with a little nausea ..... But once my nurse gave me meds for that I was good to go.  I had my breakfast and watched Baby Story like I normally do lol.  Around 1030am, physio came in, there goal was to get me in the wheelchair sitting and Dan could push me around on the floor.  I was so frightened and scared of this.  I have sat on edge of bed no problem, stood no problem, only today I had to stand and shift my legs with walker so I could get In line with chair.  So essentially I took baby steps with both legs to turn around, it was so difficult bc I haven't walked in over 3 weeks.  Once I was in the chair I then started feeling very anxious bc I was worried how I was going to get out.  Dan took me around the floor, ran into a few doctors who were so proud to see me up.


It's a really bad picture and I can't sit at a full 90 degree angle bc of my restrictions.  And yes I'm sporting some sexy physio socks lol!!!!!!

Another great moment today was seeing my Munchie.  She is walking everywhere and just a blast to watch.   I really miss her ...... But I know I need to get better before I can take care of her.  Just makes me sad bc I'm her mommy and I'm supposed to take care of her.  

Also, Bruce and Carolann came for a visit.  Brought some goodies to help fatten me up lol.  They have also been my rock through all this as well.  Always there to support me in anyway they can.  You have no idea how much we appreciate your generosity, care, love etc.  You both brighten my day when you come to visit. 

And lastly I need to thank my parents for watching Alyssa majority of the time.  She loves Grandma and Grandpas.  Oooooooooo and I totally forgot to mention Alyssa got her 5th tooth :)

Bedtime for me now ........ Nighty nighty

Feeling Pretty Good .......

TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 30TH 2014 @ 3:01PM: relaxing well munchie is sleeping HOW I FEEL:  Awesome.  Been rocking 1 CANE around the house for the last 2 days and I seem to have a little more energy this week. Well the most exciting news is that I have been rocking 1 cane around the house and feeling pretty damn good.  I struggle a little on the carpet upstairs because it's not a flat surface; like the tile and hardwood BUT none the less I am still doing it.  I haven't been brave enough to use one cane out running errands; MAYBE sooner then I think.  This weekend I am going to go shopping for a new cane.  Time to upgrade my granny silver cane to a pink one perhaps.  So exciting!  Soon I will have canes to match every outfit.  hahaha yeh right.  I also started acupuncture at physio yesterday; we are hoping that the acupuncture will help speed up the healing of my wound.  In 2 weeks we should k...

YACC Retreat and Munchie's Birthday :):)

MONDAY NOVEMBER 24TH 2014 @ 3:00pm: relaxing and going to pick Alyssa up from daycare shortly HOW   I   FEEL : tired I've been sitting here for the last half an hour or so staring at this computer screen trying to decide where to start with this blog post.  I have so much I want to share just unsure where to start.  I guess I'll start here ---- 7 days ago I got the privilege of attending the Young Adults with Cancer Retreat in Cobourg.  Dan and I got to spend 5 days there with a group of 35 AMAZING people.  I was a little unsure of what to expect going to this but after speaking with people who had attended prior retreats and told me it changed their lives completely, I knew I had to go and see it for myself.  The first day I found really intense; we sat in a circle all 35 of us and gave a brief introduction of ourselves and our journey.  I remember that night when I went to bed I thought to myself ‘holy shit, th...

And so my anxiety begins .....

MONDAY OCTOBER 27TH 2014 @ 8:25pm: in bed watching 2 Broke Girls and eating chocolate mmmm lol HOW I FEEL : tired .... stressed out .... exhausted Sooooo like the title of my blogspot states .... My anxiety for my 1 Year checkup has begun.  I know right? 1 year already since my surgery and since I was told I officially kicked Cancers Ass #screwyousarcoma #youwillneverwin.  My appointment is next Tuesday - bloodwork, X-ray and appointment with Dr. Ghert....the usual process.  For some reason my anxiety seems higher because I really want to say I've been 1 year Cancer free.  I just get so worked up and I ask myself if these appointments will EVER get easier,  I'm told not really .... The anxiety gets less and less but never fully goes away.  Awhile back I had joined this Facebook group for individuals that have or had chandrosarcomas .... In the beginning it seemed pretty awesome, reading other people's stories (from all over the world) and sharing mine...
