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 know whether it's been working or not.  Cross your fingers - I figure it won't hurt to at least try it.  It feels like this wound is never going to heal but I am trying to stay positive that in will in time ....... my goal is by the new year;  that will be about a year since the wounds developed.
Just relaxing well getting acupuncture
I'm also pretty excited about planning Alyssa's 2nd Birthday Party.  We are doing a DORA theme and I have already made the invites.  I spent about 5.5 hours on them but they are super cute and absolutely A-DORA-ABLE hahaha!!!!!  We have booked the tumblebus for an hour and look forward to seeing all the kids have a blast. 



Alyssa is also loving gymnastics ... it's so cute to watch her develop into a little gymnast.  I am sad that I can't do the activities with her but its fun watching her have a blast with Daddy or Gamma and Papa.  Maybe next year or even in the new year ????  


I'm looking forward to next week.  It's going to BUSY BUSY BUSY but so much fun exciting things happening.  Tuesday night my mom and I are taking Alyssa to see the Wiggles at Center in the Square.  I am super excited to see her dance to all the music-I may even join in lol.  Wednesday, Dan and I are going to see Russell Peters and he has arranged for a 'meet and greet' after the show.  Super excited to meet him.  Huge fan of his :)   Then Sunday night we are going to Rocktoberfect at Queensmount.  I've never been, should be fun.

Anyway, Alyssa is now up ---- I will update soon :)
Much love, LoLo

Merry Christmas !!!!!

FRIDAY DECEMBER 19TH 2014 @ 9:15am: dropped munchie off at daycare and I'm relaxing on the couch with a Starbucks and watching a Christmas Movie HOW   I   FEEL : wishing this cold would go away, it's been almost 2 weeks and I think it's overstayed it's welcome lol ACTUALLY it never was welcomed haha I just realized I haven't updated my blog since Alyssa's birthday; that's over a month ago.  I'm horrible at keeping it up to date, I always say I promise I will get better at this but it hasn't happened yet.  Maybe in the New Year ???? I can't believe Christmas is NEXT WEEK .... it doesn't feel like Christmas at all; maybe that's because our weather has been so bizarre the last few weeks and we don't have any snow.   I've been doing a lot of thinking the last few days about where I was last year and how far I have come.  This is a special Christmas for me because I get to be home with my family and Christmas morning I can...

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...

Quick Update

So just a quick update, I am back to daily packing and daily nurse visits.  I was so happy and lucky to get my old nurse back, it makes it much easier so I don't need to repeat my story over again.  Maggie is amazing and excellent with wound care, so I know I'm well taken care of.  I am once again on antibiotics because we believe an infection is starting, better safe then sorry I guess.  I am starting to get all to familiar with antibiotics and wound care products.  I am trying to remain positive even though I am extremely frustrated and angry that this has happened again.  I went to physio today and part of my upper body exercises was to punch a bag with weights in my hands to relieve some frustration and stress.  BOY did it feel good lol! Exactly what I needed.  Now to take it easy, relax whenever possible and try to let this wound heal and hopefully quickly.
