Wouldn't Ya' Think!

     Here are a few observations I've made since I have started on this cancer venture. Some are funny, some are distressing, and some just make me shake my head!

     Wouldn't ya' think that new eyebrow hairs would have the good sense to grow where they belong rather than where they are sure to be plucked out! Ditto for nose hair!!!

     Wouldn't ya' think you'd get used to seeing your bald reflection in the mirror after five months?

       Wouldn't ya' think people would think twice about smoking cigarettes in their car as they drop someone off for treatment at the Roger Maris Cancer Center????????

    Wouldn't ya' think that if Taxotere (one of my chemo drugs) is strong enough to make toenails fall off, it should surely be strong enough to kill cancer cells!

    Wouldn't ya' think lumps should stick to muffins?

    Wouldn't ya' think the hair growing back on your head SHOULD be kind enough to return the same color as when it left???

    Wouldn't ya' think doctors, nurses, and radiation technicians should be required to use hand warmers before they touch a bare-from-the-waist-up-body?    :-)

     Wouldn't ya' think the SUPER GIANT SIZED burgundy colored hospital gowns could be "cute-ified"!

    Wouldn't ya' think I'd be almost glowing after 25 radiation treatments? I won't even NEED a costume for Halloween...I'll just glow in the dark!!!

    Wouldn't ya' think ghosts and goblins would scare me? Nope, nothing scares me now. I'm surviving breast cancer!!!

    Wouldn't ya' think breast cancer would have picked someone who wouldn't have fought so hard against it??? Guess not! Breast cancer...you picked the WRONG chick (or old hen!!!)

                                        My superpower is HOPE.

                                     I Hope, I Fight, I Am Winning!
