My spirits aren’t low, but I’m a little frustrated because I am in a holding pattern, waiting for a treatment plan, and my imagination is whirling around. I am focused on the idea that I will only need surgery, but the odds of that aren’t too high, according to my oncologist it is only 10% of early stage cancer patients that get by with only surgery. The other 90% of early detection cases still have to follow the chemotherapy and radiation protocol before surgery, a little daunting to contemplate.
I was thinking about my hair, if my hair falls out, it will grow back more white than brown, lol. I have had short hair a few times over the years, so it doesn’t frighten me, I’m more nervous about eyebrows and eyelashes, that would be tough.
I like to pride myself on my lack of vanity, but I am vain when the it really comes down to it.
Now I have Carly Simon’s song “You’re so Vain” stuck in my head, lol.

You know, we all have our vain spots when it come down to it. I’ve not gone through this but with many things in life, the dread of something is worse than the reality…. if that makes any sense. And…if all else fails…there is always chocolate.
I understand completely about the potential dread compared to cool light of one’s reality. I am doing a number on the chocolates lol lol
Remember you are that beautiful bloom! You shine from the inside whether you lose hair or not!
Thanks sweetie!! Xxxxxxoooo
I am keeping my eye on your blog for updates, Laurie. Sending love.
Thanks Jules, I’ll know more by the end of next week. Huge hugs Jules xxoo
Hi there!
So they’re saying you caught it early?
That’s good news though!
And a beautiful hibiscus. On.
Hooray! My doctors are saying it is curable!. So that is something to celebrate, the road to get there will probably be difficult but there is a light at the end of the tunnel! Hooray! I love hibiscus. 😀
Can’t lie, I’m in tears! You see, just lost my twin sister and my brother on the same day to cancer, one throat, one ovarian, both diagnosed too late.
I feel your joy in your words – you have a fighting chance, you must do so honestly and openly, don’t floss your posts – a fighting chance. Imagine that.
I’m in tears. Onward, madam, tally-ho, whatever may come.
And by the way Merry Christmas! You must do a post around your tree avec photos!!
Thank you so very much for your love and support!! I am so so sorry for your double loss, I cannot imagine how you feel, I promise you, I will fight my best to get better and honor your sister and brother in my fight.
