Well FINALLY I'm here ....

'Finally I'm here ... I've been moved to UT2; which is the aggressive rehab floor.  I have been waiting to be transferred here since I came to Freeport originally.  On this floor I will get rehab 2 times a day, 7 days a week....this is my last stop then home.  This program is geared to get you home.  I have never been happier to hear I was being transferred.......I needed this so bad.  I am going to give this everything I got so I can get home to my baby girl.  She needs her mama at home with her.  I was transferred down here at 11am this morning.  Dean came to help me move my stuff, then he stayed for abit.  I had to fill out admission forms for the 3rd time and he got my tv hooked up for me.  Physio came in after lunch and I went for a walk with the therapist, tomorrow I will get physio twice a day and it will be a fresh start for me and a fresh start towards my journey home.  Another mile stone was wearing actual clothes rather then a hospital gown.  I have lived in a gown since my surgery in November.... Today I put pj pants and a shirt on.  It felt great lol.  The little things in life excite me lol.  Dan came up after work and we went on a dinner date to Subway downstairs .... It was nice just the 2 of us and no kids lol.  We sure did splurge for our dinner date hahaha.  Tonight I'm going to do some reading and go to bed early, so I can start my day fresh tomorrow and be prepared.  Everyone says this floor is like bootcamp, but it's what I need in order to get home.  I need to be pushed past my limits.

I don't have much else to share tonight ....... Enjoy the couple pictures lol .... I attached a few of Alyssa because of course she is cute as ever.

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...
