On November 10, 2014, I was diagnosed with invasive ductile carcinoma. Over the next year I had a lot of tests, surgery, 4 rounds of chemo, 33 radiation treatments and then started hormone therapy (tamoxifen) which will continue for the next 10 years. Back then, I started this blog to share updates on my treatment... thankfully I don't need it for that purpose anymore, so now I periodically share news and mostly random thoughts and observations that may or may not be related to cancer.

Brother and Sisters Time
Two weekends ago my brother and his family came to visit us. I was pretty worn out on Friday when they arrived, but I was still able to enjoy their company. Saturday I didn't feel too terrible... I was moving pretty slow (which may have contributed to our missing the Easter egg hunt). I felt up to going to Claire's soccer game and also to Cole & Charlie's birthday party dinner. Sunday morning (Easter) was the day I could tell I had been feeling not-great because I noticed how much better I felt! We had a lovely Easter breakfast at Tyler & Dawn's house before Pat & Aileen had to leave for the airport. Andrea and her family came over, too, so all the siblings were together again!
Aileen added to our freezer supply in the short time she was here... she prepared a bunch of stir-fry that we just have to take out and stir-fry up and eat. Thank you so much! We were all sad when they had to head back to Renton. Harrison is such a sweet boy and changes so much between every visit. We miss having them live close by for sure! Hopefully we can go visit them sometime this year.
