Just a short note
I just wanted to update all - I am regaining my strength everyday and am so thankful. I did not think 3 weeks ago I would have my strength back and be able to do things. This past Sunday afternoon I was able to get in the lake on my raft and enjoy time with my children and grandchildren. I am enjoying everyday to the fullest and it is great getting out around others and doing things. I don't have time to think about the negative and I am giving God all the glory and praise. I have to run I have a 9 AM appointment so I've gotta run for now but will be back and update everything I am up to these days.

It's Official
I have officially finished my last cancer treatment. I have been singing my praises to my Savior and Lord for seeing me thru. I will be honest there were times I did not think I could go any further, but dueto the amazing people in my life and such great prayer warriors God gave me the strength. I will stay in the hospital an extra night for monitoring due to my blood pressure being so low. I want to give a shout out to the Pearlman Comprehensive Cancer Center Physicains and all the staff they are awesome. Also, want to give a shout out the South Georgia Medical Center and the nurses and staff on the 5th floor they have taken great care of me.
Next week is going to be so different for me. Everyday for the past couple of months I have gone to the Cancer Center for treatment. Now I have time to build my Mary Kay business and finally accomplish moving up to Director. I will need all the help of my friends and prayer warriors to help me accomplish this goal.
Have a terrific night!

What Cancer Cannot Do
What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited
It cannot cripple love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship
It cannot suppress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot steal eternal life
It cannot conquer the spirit.

Wednesday June 30th
Can you believe June is on its way out. My life seems to have been a big blurr since 4/15/10. It is like today the lights are on and I am ready to go. This is my last treatment. Yesterday was pretty rough. I had to have a unit of blood due to my hemoglobin being to low. I had been so tired and not able to do much of anything so hopefully that took care of that. The cesuim implant went fine yesterday, but the pain was terrible due to still being sore from the last one. They finally got my pain under control by 8:30 last night. Then I had problems with my blood pressure being to low. Today it is doing better. Possibly will get to go home this afternoon.
I am already starting to fill my July Calander for MK parties. Time to get busy. I am looking forward to building my team. So I am looking for sharp women who are looking for a great company to join and earn extra income. I have a passion for helping other women and even more so now. I am looking to start scheduling interviews next week, and I will have a thank you gift for each person who attends an interview with me.
Pray you all have a super blessed day.

My Opinion
I was reading in todays newspaper about a local practice that has Cancer screenings that save lives. This test is for breast cancer and ovarian cancer and cost $3000. Of course it is not covered by most insurance companies. If you have a family history of breast or ovarian cancer you are a candidate to have this test done. Here is why I get a little no alot ruffled. If this is a test that can detect or prevent these horrible cancers they need to be readily available to everyone not just to the people that can afford pay $3000. There was a recent article I read that most people already cannot afford to go to the doctor for regular screenings and when they are finally diagnosised with cancer sometimes it is to late. I had no insurance so of course I am one of those people that put off having my test done. Then I started having severe health issues that kept me going to the doctors for 4 months before I was even diagnosised with STAGE 3 Endocervical Cancer. And guess what? I have no family history of cancer. Ours is heart disease. So that throws that theory out the window. I think everyone should be a candidate.
My second thought is why don't they do better with the screenings they already have in place? Reason being in 2004 I was pregnant went in for my first OB appointment and of course had my pap done. I had a miscarriage, the weekend after my miscarriage I received a letter in the mail from the doctors office stating I had an anormal pap and needed to schedule a biopsey. (yea cold huh, they had to mail it to me and not call me, anyways) I had to have a biopsey and my cervix did not match the pap results so he had to take to biopseys. I asked him if it was possible that was not my pap and of course he said anything was possible. My results came back normal. I had 3 paps afterwards all in which were normal. Then When I was diagnosised in April the Gyn Oncologist in Macon said that was more than likely my pap that I had this cancer for years. 7 cm, a size of a lemon. Why did no one mention endocervical cells. Most times when you have a pap done they don't get these cells because they are higher up in your T zone. So you see I believe they need to be better on doing the test that are in place. I bet everyone or most people that has been diagnosised with cancer have a story to tell as well. Sometimes I think we all get so comfortible in what we do we overlook or don't do the best that can be done. Especially now in healthcare since providers have to see more patients they can't or don't spend the quality of time with the patient or reading the test results or listening to the patients and their cheif complaints.
If there are any cancer screening test out there that can save lives I believe it should be readily available to "EVERYONE" not to just those who can afford it. In the long run it would save a tremendous amount of money and lives.
