I haven't written much about my journey with Stage 4 Colon Cancer lately, that I recall anyway. The fight continues and things appear to be looking better ... I feel somewhat better, still tired a very lot, but, on other fronts, things are moving in the right direction. I will fight this beast into the ground.Thank you for the constant words of encouragement, your positive thoughts, and love you have shared... it means so much more than you can even imagine. Why? Because it is not all fun and roses ... there are many days, it is tough to put on the positive happy face and appear that all is good. A week or so ago, I was almost not online at all, very few post, just hidden away in a tired misery, I couldn't help it. I was an emotional wreck. So many of you asked how things were and where I was, I found it very hard to even respond, and in many cases, I did not. I'm sorry, like being on a roller coaster, sometimes you're up, other times your down. It was a bad week mentally, physically, and emotionally. Thanks for hanging in there with me. I'd love to thank each and every one of you personally, yet I can't mention any names, because there are so many supporting me and I don't want to miss anyone ... childhood friends from high school I haven't seen in years, thank you ... my Scentsy family friends, from the very top head quarters people to the many, many I haven't even personally met yet - I will be in Salt Lake City next year for my 10 year walk! Thank you. So many co-workers and friends from my work career, I appreciate you all so much, Thank you. Also my newest Relay For Life family of friends, what a support group you all are ... I'm ready for Relay 2020, Thank you. Lastly, to my Marco Polo connections, even though I don't often get a response back to you, I love hearing and seeing your messages - so encouraging. Thank you. And to all of you who may not fall into one of those groups, you are just amazing friends and supporters, thank you. Now promise me, all of you, get screened! Colonoscopies save men and women's lives! You lady friends, you have more screening to do, do NOT put them off, early detection is key.
Here's a great bit of information I read tonight about colorectal cancer, it wouldn't hurt for you to take a look at "Colorectal Cancer Myths and Common Questions
I've more of less regained my appetite, I seem to eat everything in sight. Including some things I perhaps shouldn't be eating or drinking, but, I'm working on that. I have gained several pounds back that I had lost, I'm thinking a few more than I really wanted too so I continue to try to control that, but, I feel good and I feel alive!
Through all this, I've had my best 2 months in operating my Scentsy business that I have had since my diagnosis - I am fighting through this and keep the business moving forward. Have you ever thought about a part time job (although I don't consider Scentsy a part time job at all), an extra payday between now and Christmas - you can join with my this month only, September 2019 - for only $15.00 and you will receive much more than that in product and supplies just by giving it a chance. I'm here to go with you every step of the way. Let's talk about it soon! Lastly, we have been hard at work transforming a house - sort of like our own "Fixer Upper" - its been a complete transformation and we are really proud of the outcome. Watch for the before and after story that will be coming soon - Our completing date has been set for September 27th. So proud of this work and how it has helped me, even though some days I can be found napping in the car sitting in the driveway! It's been a labor of love.
Thank you once again, for all you are to me in this life - I choose to be happy and live well.
