Consolidated list of FB posts (imported from FB)

Hi everyone. I decided to create a post that links to all of the posts regarding my ovarian cancer life. This way in case you have missed any, you can go back. They are the mobile version of the link since I'm just on my phone, but it should still work on a browser. I will add new story links to this post also. If you want to be notified when I add a new story, you can click the three dot button in the top right corner of this post and choose to turn on notifications or follow or something like that. The posts are linked newest to oldest in the post body so it's easiest for you to find the newest post first 🥰 At the bottom of this post are ways you can help 🥰❤️👒🍕💅

 Various ways you can help if you feel so inclined. Please don't send flowers. I am very immunocompromised from the chemo, so I'll be very sensitive to pollen, allergens, and even my dogs. 🥰🥰🥰 

This is the preferred way to help, especially when Wil takes Jack to Taiwan... Food gift cards 🍕🍲 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=785978562753382&id=100040237366078

Update after a long time

Image
How are you doing? Simple question, but as someone with cancer, its sometimes a difficult question to answer. Do you want a simple answer, or the whole answer? I've struggled with the answer recently. I normally say "Fine" or "Great" or something along those lines. But you know what? I'm not really fine or great. I've been meaning to write an update for a month or so, and I know there are lots of family and friends that have been looking for one. This is going to be a long read, so settle in, maybe grab a tissue... I'm not going to lie. It's been tough. My CA 125 number was climbing even before finishing the previous treatment cycle, so that's not a surprise. But it continues to climb, and thats what I hate. I hate having that number bigger and bigger every time they draw blood. Here are the 10 most recent CA 125 counts (remember normal range is 0-38.1): Sept 23 - 274 Sept 3 - 194 Aug 12 - 133 Jun 28 - 78,1 Jun 6 - 73.3 May 14 - 57....

May 18, 2024 - Current plan and things going on recently

Image
First, I want you all to know that I love and appreciate everyone that thinks about me or reaches out. I feel fine. I don't feel like I have cancer. But its still here. It hasn't gone away like we had hoped. The thing with ovarian cancer is that when its stage 3+ and/or high grade serous (which mine was), it doesn't always go away. It might be something that goes into remission for a few months or a few years and then needs to be treated again. I had about 8 months between my first chemo rounds finishing and it coming back. I had hoped for more time in between. But it is what it is. I then went away last summer knowing it was back. I knew before I left for Taiwan and Japan, but I wanted to live my life. I felt fine, and the doctors and I all agreed it was fine. When I got back from my summer travels last year in September, we started again. We just finished that up in March, but its back again. I have been on the maintenance infusion every 3 weeks, but my CA 125 has also be...

Chemo cycle 4, infusion 1 was Monday 12/18

Image
So I had my infusion day 1 of cycle 4 this past Monday, December 18th. Since Alex is on break from school, he came with me for chemo. I think it was a good day for him to go since they had holiday cookies out to share 😂  Chemo went fine Monday, and I felt fine on Tuesday. But Wednesday really knocked me out. The accumulation of chemo and side effects really hit me. I couldn't eat, I actually wound up throwing up, which I haven't done in years. Thursday wasn't much better other than I didn't throw up. I wasn't able to eat much other than some toast and applesauce. Something is affecting my face and giving me really puffy eyes. Not sure if it's the chemo or something else. Today, I'm definitely feeling better. Alex and I went out and ran a few errands before the weekend. And for some more good news, my CA 125 number is down to 18.7 which is the middle of normal range 🎉🎉🎉 We will have my infusion day 2 of this cycle next Tuesday, Dec...
