Been a long time since i updated my blog. Our family trip to Toronto was a great getaway. We did lots of touristy things including the Hockey Hall of Fame, CN Tower,Old Maple Leaf Gardens, Rodgers Center, an NHL game. We also got to go to China town and do some sight seeing and of course shopping!! The subway was a real experience as we used it a couple times so felt like real Torontotarians . The grand kids enjoyed the hotel pool and play room. They had a couple bunny rabbits there and they liked seeing them each day. We also got to share a few visits with Wes's family and they were so good to all of us making time to visit and show us around.
Since then ive continued to feel fairly good. My energy continues to improve each day. I have had some pain in my legs but they say thats a side effect to the chemo i was on. Im really happy to say my eyebrows are coming back and i have been able to use mascara again on my short but visible eyelashes. My hair also continues to grow and on Saturday i did my first outing in public without MEME!!!(the wig) Guess where i went....WINNERS!! hahhaa Many of you know i love Winners. I felt very nervous and insecure but i did it. My hair is fairly long(about 2 inches) but is very white. They say the Chemo kills your color pigment and i am not able to dye it for 4 months so i guess i best get use to going out with it the way it is.
I continue going to the Healthy Living Center 5 days a week and walk. I love it and say thanks to God at least once a day while im there. I continue to feel very blessed and appreciate each day with my good health,family and freinds.
I will be going to Winnipeg in May for my first 3 month check up! Im already looking forward to going and getting the reassurance i need. I sure do miss all the staff at the cancer care in Brandon. They truely became my extended family.
Well i will do a better job at keeping you all in the loop more often as i continue to get stronger Always Donna
What to say but YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! Is your hair curly or straight? Who knows, you might get so used to it, you won't bother with colouring and all that upkeep. (says the woman with roots needing covering!) Bet Winners is glad to have you back. See you in May. I'm starting to stock up on wine now!! xo T
