Wow how has it been two months and two days since I have given an update? where to start?

Back in mid December due to staffing issues at work I returned about 3 weeks earlier than planned with much begging and pleading with my boss to let me come back before I was scheduled to. I had one 20 hour week with restrictions then back to full time. I will forever be grateful for the amazing support from my "work family" throughout this process they are the ones that kept me from over doing "stuff". I know I can be a challenge and am positive I was and probably still am!

The hormone therapy is not quite as bad since my medication was changed, don't get me wrong I am still dealing with side effect just not as bad, for the 1st hour after I take my meds I feel pretty crappy which is OK I just get up earlier in the morning to give myself the time I need to let this "yucky feeling  pass". I always look for the silver lining in everything.

I also had a base line bone density test done and am happy to say it came back normal so no infusions for now. I think it has been the only thing that has come back "normal" since this craziness began.

I am happy to say things are going so good with my oncologist I actually get to go 2 months before I have to go back and see him. I will take any win small or large!! 

My energy level isn't where it was prior to surgery and wonder how long this will take to return? I have to remind myself I am only 3 months post op and things take time. Anyone who knows me knows how hard I push myself and get discouraged when I can't complete or do as much as I expect I should be able to. My doctors have told me it can take 6 months to a year... let's hope not! 
Thank goodness for Drew and his patience with me, there are days I come home from work and don't have the energy to make dinner and for that matter do much of anything else other than fall asleep in my chair. He is my knight in shining armor I am the luckiest lady to have him by my side through out this crazy journey. He picks up and does anything and everything I don't get done.

On a side note some of you have contacted Chelsey and myself asking if I am ok, I am fine and no my cancer hasn't returned but we do have a family member that has recently been diagnosed with cancer and has a long journey ahead. My words of advise was no one wants to be in the "cancer club" things are about to get crazy you are about to be on a roller coaster ride that you can't get off of. Enjoy the calmness and quiet times when you have the chance, you will miss it the craziness won't last forever!!!
Please if you pray please send up extra prayers for calmness, comfort and positive ju ju it would be very much appreciated. 

Thanks for taking the time to read this more than likely I won't have much to post for awhile, I am sure no one wants to hear about work since that is pretty much all I do just like before my diagnosis. 

Good night and sweet dreams to you all <3
