Health Update


My one-year checkups are all complete! Just a little different from my March appointments, this round consisted of a mammogram, a visit with my surgeon's office, bloodwork, a visit with my oncologist, and a lymphedema scan. I took flowers to my little hometown branch where I've received most of my treatments.


The wait to see my oncologist was longer than usual. I always take snacks and a book, but after two hours, I was hungry and tired of sitting. I started walking laps around the parking lot and eventually asked Aaron if he would bring me some food on his lunch break. He thoughtfully cut up my pork chop and included a love note on a napkin. That's real romance!


All scans are clear, I'm gaining muscle, and bloodwork is holding steady. My oncologist is going to look into a few things to help remedy my fatigue, and I'll make the next round of appointments in three months.
