Haven't posted in a few days. I got a nasty head cold that has prevented me from wanting to do anything but watch the National Geographic Channel. I love that channel! That and Discovery Health Channel, which Scout refers to as "Megan's Surgery Channel". How do they separate Siamese twins? I wanna know!
I have 2 (Two!) more chemo treatments left. That finally seems like a do-able number. I am excited to be done and finally let my body rid itself of all the toxic chemicals and steroids that they have been pumping into me. I know that it is killing the cancer, but it's also bad for my system. Bad for me and good for me? Kinda like chocolate! Mmmmm....chocolate chemo.
My friend who is a holistic practitioner, Sid (www.synergywellness.org), recommended I try some Lymphatic Drainage to help my body get rid of toxins. I'm going in next week to a local practitioner and I am excited to see if it works. Anything to get out of the chemo hole. I want to come out of this whole cancer experience healthier than when I went in.
Okay, back to the surgery channel.

About Me
- Megan
- In late 2006 I was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer. In October I had surgery to remove 10 inches of colon, my uterus and my left ovary (where the cancer had spread). In December I celebrated my 34th birthday and then started 6 months of chemo. And I have lived to tell the tale...
where you be at?

Glad to see that you are back in the blogging saddle again. I am just getting ready to start radiation therapy (4-6 weeks) and then the chemo- (4-6 months), and I appreciate your straight words. You can do these next few treatmants! Good luck, and keep the chocolate flowing.

I think about you daily, even if I don't show it. You mean so much to me, and I love you.
And I agree with the lymphatic drain.
R and my mom send their love as well.
