Journal entry by Jill Hasenohrl —
As I write today it is so windy and chilly outside, feelings of uncertainty as I will be starting back to work again and there is so much to do here at home and with my treatments that I just pray I have enough energy and strength to endure all things ahead!
I have been healing well still not normal but I’m sure I’m just going to have to learn that this is my new normal. I have started my immunotherapy last week Friday and every third Friday I will be getting my iv immunotherapy treatments until August of 2021.. I am to start radiation to my left breast, axillary area and collar bone area soon... waiting on insurance approval as it was declined! I was floored by this but I am assured that it will get approved one way or another...... plan is to have 28 sessions of radiation Monday-Friday and praying my skin tolerates it and I don’t burn!
There are so many days I feel as if nothing has happened and back to my crazy life with my family and then bam I’m reminded that I still have a ways to go and will always live with thoughts that will this cancer or another rear it’s ugly face again? I pray that God has given me many years to enjoy my time on this beautiful earth...
Hoping for a happy and healthy November to everyone! God truely is great and provides! Thank you to everyone that has helped us in any ways via prayers (and I and my family will always take prayers), meals , gas cards , gift cards, kind words .. you name it it’s been so humbling and just amazing from all of the support near and far! Praise be to God!
