Resiliency is Exhausting

Today is National Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day. Here is a link to my donation page. All money goes to Metavivor which gives all its money toward researching MBC.

I decided to take a year off of advocacy last November. My health was very poor and I needed a break. I didn’t know then that my mom would pass in December. It hasn’t been an easy road. My new line of treatment seems to be controlling the breast cancer in my brain (knock on wood). I’m seeing a nutritionist who has helped me regain more physical strength despite the frequent – and sudden – bouts of vomiting and diarrhea. I am a realistic and resilient person, but all that gets pretty exhausting. I don’t leave home much because of the side effects, but it’s okay because I love my home on the family farm with my lab, my art/writing room, and my piano.

I am also taking a break from social media so I would appreciate you sharing my posts. There are buttons at the bottom of the page to make that easier. You can navigate to my home page and hit the subscribe button to receive email notifications of new blog posts.

Thanks for reading this far. Thanks for your support. F cancer.

On my good days I walk our field with Madi.
The legs of someone who hikes with a lab and bruises easily.
Taking a break on a bin pad.
Madi can hike off leash (on our own acreage) due to training and dried sweet potatoes. She knows I always have a handful in my pocket.
