WHAT CANCER CAN NOT DO  . . . CANCER IS SO LIMITED

IT CANNOT CRIPPLE LOVE

IT CANNOT SHATTER  HOPE

IT CANNOT CORRODE FAITH 

IT CANNOT DESTROY PEACE

IT CANNOT KILL FRIENDSHIP

IT CANNOT SUPPRESS MEMORIES

IT CANNOT SILENCE COURAGE

IT CANNOT INVADE THE SOUL

IT CANNOT STEAL ETERNAL LIFE

IT CANNOT CONQUER THE SPIRIT 

                       Unknown


All of the above are true.


Guess what?  I've got EYELASHES!   They've come back. I am going to have to take a close-up picture of them to document this momentous event. True, they fall between stubletts and normal size in length, but at least they are comin' along just fine.   :)

This day went by quickly. Went to town with Nina to buy gifts for nephew Matt's fiancé, Kristin's, bridal shower.
Then attempted to straighten the house as best I could, since my doctor said "NO MOVING YOUR ARMS FOR A FEW WEEKS!"  How in the Sam Hill is that gonna work? Alec came to my house about 1:30 and kept himself busy. Talked to sister Sandy and then Sandy R. from Georgia and later, Little Ma. Then quickly mowed our yard (or what is left to mow that isn't all covered with tree limbs) and did the shop land. Fixed some steaks and we ate supper about 10:00!!  I'm not supposed to eat or drink after midnight, but I cut it kinda close.      Now ii is time to get ready for tomorrow.

I am not a bit nervous about it. Like I have said before, I will be unconscious so I don't know, nor do I want to know, what exactly is happening. I think they said I will have to spend a night in the hospital, but hopefully not. This is not supposed to hurt as bad as the first surgery, since the cut that they made taking out the tumor and removing the breasts, has healed. Also, before, they had to cut the chest muscles to put the expanders in, and that was really a doozy feeling, but that is not necessary this time.  So all will go fine. No problem. 

Thanks for all the good thoughts, all my wonderful peeps.  We're heading down the home stretch.

I'll get back to you with the results of how easy this new procedure goes.    :)  Going to bed now.

EXTRA NOTE:  Congratulations, Amanda and Jimmy, on your marriage!

                                                                  GOD BLESS YOU ALL

    Janene...

    ... was diagnosed with breast cancer on November 11, 2013. This is a place for all of the people who love and care about her to get the information about her treatment and her personal experience of kicking cancer's ass, (sometimes from her daughter's perspective). It's hard to stand by and not be able to do anything to help. Writing gives my mom an outlet and allows both of us to share information during this time. Therefore, we blog :)
