Wow I have a lot to tell haha!

Well the end of 2014 I was sick and missed my app @ Hillman for 6 months.
Then Oct 20 2014 we bought a  townhouse & been here 4 months :) we loooove it!
Jan 28th I finally went to Hillman and blood and MRI are both FINE! THANK GOD!
Mom went in w/ me when they put the IV in and told them about the nurse last time
they were very nice (like they always are) and got it in quickly.

Gotta go <3 Chrissy

Aug 25 2014 = went to Hillman got a good report the doc is very pleased w/ how I'm doing so yay!!. But I forgot to tell the nurse (she was one that I had never had before and I thought I knew all of the nurses) that I have tiny veins and need a small needle so she poked me 4 times w/ a big IV and lets just say I wasn't happy..Then a nurse I did know came in and used the small needle and got it.My arms are all bruised up and it's now (9/5/14) and it's just fading. Aug 13 was my mom's b-day and the 16th we had a small party for her.And now for the best the most greatest news of all were getting a townhouse AHHHHHH! No more apt for us! I can't wait to move in.
Well bye for now :)

My Life

My dear sweet Pipkin Thomas passed away on Jun 17.He was our dear beautiful black kitten barely a year old he had spit up some during the week and wasn't eating as much as he had (he gobbled up his food like a piggy,now was eating small meals). I just can't believe all the death that's been around me Grandpa,my beloved Mr Mischief,now poor Little Pippy.I feel cursed.

My IBM has been acting up and I've been having horrible headaches ugh I'm a mess.One good thing is atleast I have my beautiful black and white angle Tashi IDK what I would do w/out her.

On Jun 2nd went to Hillman (3 month visit) my blood work/MRI was good! My headaches are better it really depends on my stress level or sometimes I just get them for no reason.But the meds do help I no longer get them everyday.I lost some weight and I'm trying to eat better.

update

OMG I'm sorry about the late post again---

Well I finished my chemo pills on 3/22/14 :) I still had nausea and headaches for 2 weeks after.But the nausea is gone and I still get headaches but not every day so it's something.My trouble now is bright lights like flashing lights from tv or bright lights bother my eyes they feel so sensitive now.I wear my baseball hat and sun glasses A LOT NOW!I'm having trouble walking straight  and feel dizzy a lot. I'm having other EMBARRASSING problems too that are SECRET and make me wanna CRY.
But I a great support team to help me so I'm ok. I'll write again soon Chrissy :)

Updates

Wow sorry it took me so long to post jeez. Well my MRI's and blood work have been fine.And today was my last monthly doc visit.I'm now gonna get an MRI/blood every 3 months now!!And in  couple of days I'll take my last dose of chemo pills!Unfortunately I'm still having headaches and a circle of pail around  my left eye. To best honest I've been very depressed because of my painful headaches and dizziness.I'm sick of NEVER FEELING GOOD! I made a cardboard divider to block out the lights from the lamps (I know that your saying "why not shut out the lights if they bother you haha) But watching tv in the dark hurts my eyes more.I have a hat and sun glasses that I ware.I've come up w/ ways to help my head,eh sometimes they work sometimes not.My bestfriend I'll call her Mandy has headaches too so her advice has helped too.I'll be writing later this week about my countdown to my last chemo pills.

nov 13

(Nov 1) got a good check up at Hillman so that's always good news..Chemo pills really did a number on me I was naused and sick the whole week..Even being off them I still felt sick.

Nov 11-Still don't feel good I don't have much of a appetite,headache or naused..I feel like a shell of my former self..At least the old me wasn't sick all the time..I just wanna feel normal again.I'm still heart sick over my beloved Mischief..I miss him more then anything.
