Mastectomy Blues

 Can you believe I have two weeks with my breast !! My breast they look so normal like nothing is wrong with them but yet the left almost killed me . I made a huge decision an Im so so scared of the outcome of my new normal an new reality of no longer having breast . 



Going through Chemotherapy was the most difficult thing I have ever been through I am so weak most of the time. Today I feel like myself just little sad because I have just two weeks left with my breast I wanted a goodbye dinner or something lol. I don't know it really seems unreal , yea having cancer being bald an all in unreal but shit my boobs! ! damn dog I just decided not to try an save it an give myself the best options I just want to see my daughter grow old. I just want to be there an if that means letting go of my boobs then I have too. My boobs just they've just always been there you know . Maybe I am bugging maybe I'm overthinking everything . its not like this an actual boob job, I won't have nipples I won't have them. I think about me being 34 me being young an maybe I can save it but what if . I mean reality it can still come back either way no one is GOD. 

Yesterday. I felt joy. !!!! I was happy to tell my news happy to express how I was feeling happy to say that I'm one step closer to being CANCER FREE an BOOB FREE . Today im sad today im mourning my boobs, today I mourn them. Tomorrow is a different story I guess I should be entitled to these feelings I guess I mean I've been through all this shit !!!! this is so traumatic. To think so many surgeries after this one , the recovery. process . My mind is just going the thoughts .......... Then I have people asking me what's next? what's next after this ? huh? 


Can I fucking rest? Can I sit down an think please can I get use to this person staring back at me in the mirror please? can you please look at my life an what I have been through can I get an actual pause please? Or no back to normal life like nothing ever happened? Work a regular job? do regular things? Just move on? How can people be so insensitive towards one another? maybe they just don't know , they don't know they won't ever know unless its them.

I didn't know who or what I wanted to do before this. I still don't but I do it just seems so far fetched from my reality , how can I ever make an living doing what I love ? How can this happen for me? I want that for me I want to write an tell my stories I want my daughter to have a good life with stable , alive, active, healthy mom . I want all these. things but I don't have anything for myself , just when I was getting my life back together boom I got cancer. I don't have money I don't have the strength to become that I want to be. I don't even know where to begin. Today I just mourn not only my breast but my life because its never going to be the same again an I need to change it I just don't know how .

Embracing the Power of Yes: A Journey of Change and Growth

The concept of New Year's resolutions often comes to mind. Personally, I have never been a firm believer in setting resolutions, but I have come to realize that there are certain patterns in my life that I consistently strive to change. One such pattern is my desire to read more. Every year, I make a promise to myself that I will dedicate more time to reading, and yet, I often find myself falling short of this goal. It's a recurring cycle that I can't seem to break. Perhaps it's my Virgo nature that contributes to this cycle. As a Virgo, I am known for my meticulous planning and attention to detail. I always get a planner and jot down all the things I intend to do. It's almost comical how I am constantly "Virgoing" – a term I use to describe my tendency to overanalyze and overthink things. While this trait can be useful in certain aspects of life, it often becomes a hindrance when it comes to creativity and spontaneity. Being a creative person, ...
