Doesn’t he have the prettiest eyes?????

Let’s see…. what’s new with me? The title says it all! I went to see my cancer specialist on the 11th and all he said was that my husband and I can start getting freaky again, WOO HOO, and that I don’t have to see him again until October 11th. Next I go see my radiation doctor on the 28th, 7 days from now and counting. Hopefully he won’t stick his finger up my poop chute like the other doctor does. I don’t want to use the doctor’s actual names so from now on I will have nicknames for them. My cancer specialist doctor will now be called Dr. Butt Plug for obvious reasons. I mean, why does he have to do that EVERY TIME I see him?!?!?! It’s just RUDE!!! Anyways, my radiation doctor will now be called Dr. MKAY because he looks, sounds and talks JUST like Mr. Mackey from South Park. It’s SO FUNNY! He even SAYS MKAY!!! They are both great doctors. They have saved my life! I Love you guys!

That’s about it. OH! Some good news is that I have gained some weight back. I am now a 118-pounder! Pretty soon I will need some new clothes. I should just go on that TV show What Not To Wear. They give you a trip to New York, a new wardrobe, new hair and new makeup. A complete make-over and who wouldn’t *love* that?!?!?! The most recent thing i’ve done to myself is dye my hair. First I died it Chocolate Cherry and then Mocha. Now My hair is brown with some reddish highlights. lololol It’s different and I did it all by myself! =] So, what’s new with all of you????? Give me details!! =]

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Why am I always a guy????? Every quiz I take!! This disturbs me. :/

Look at this lovely cake that I made!!! I swear that it is edible. It’s just 2 cakes with some melted tootsie rolls on top.

CAKE INGREDIENTS:
1 box spice or German chocolate cake mix
1 box of white cake mix
1 package white sandwich cookies
1 large package vanilla instant pudding mix A few drops green food coloring
12 small Tootsie Rolls or equivalent

SERVING “DISHES AND UTENSILS”
1 NEW cat-litter box
1 NEW cat-litter box liner
1 NEW pooper scooper

Prepare and bake cake mixes, according to directions, in any size pan. Prepare pudding and chill. Crumble cookies in small batches in blender or food processor. Add a few drops of green food coloring to 1 cup of cookie crumbs. Mix with a fork or shake in a jar. Set aside.

When cakes are at room temperature, crumble them into a large bowl. Toss with half of the remaining cookie crumbs and enough pudding to make the mixture moist but not soggy. Place liner in litter box and pour in mixture.

Unwrap 3 Tootsie Rolls and heat in a microwave until soft and pliable. Shape the blunt ends into slightly curved points. Repeat with three more rolls. Bury the rolls decoratively in the cake mixture. Sprinkle remaining white cookie crumbs over the mixture, then scatter green crumbs lightly over top.

Heat 5 more Tootsie Rolls until almost melted. Scrape them on top of the cake and sprinkle with crumbs from the litter box. Heat the remaining Tootsie Roll until pliable and hang it over the edge of the box. Place box on a sheet of newspaper and serve with scooper.
Enjoy!

Hello! How is everyone doing today? I am perfect! I went to see my CCS (cervical cancer specialist) Monday and I got some decent news. I really didn’t learn that much but I am still happy about what I DID learn. I learned that…

1.) My ovaries are dead, dried up, useless. He tried to save them but the radiation treatments were so invasive that there wasn’t much hope to save them in the first place. At least he tried!

2.) I now have thin bones. I have to go have a Bone Density Test ran to find out just how thin they are. Then, i’ll find out if I need to take extra medications to help make them stronger. It all depends on just how thin they are.

3.) I have 1 month off! I don’t have to have anything but the bone test done for a month! It doesn’t really coun’t because it’s such a short and simple test. No needles! Woo Hoo!

The appointment was actually pretty funny. I haven’t seen this doctor in a while so he was asking all sorts of questions to catch up on how I was doing and what all has happened in the past few weeks. I told him that the only odd thing was that I has a seizure or two – no big deal. He asked what happened, I told him, then he scolded me like I was his little kid. lolol When I told him that I didn’t go with the paramedics to the hospital that night and have a MRI done he about had a come-apart. Telling me that my windpipe could have closed, I could have vomited and choked, blah blah blah. You know how “parents” can be. lolol I let it all go in one ear and out the other while I laughed. =] I had to PROMISE him that if it happened again I would go straight to the hospital and have a brain scan thingy done. I can’t remember the name of the test he said but I had to swear before he would talk about anything else. It was so sweet! It just showed how much he cared. He sees me as a person, not just another patient. I love doctors like that! I just wanted to hug him!

I was also asked about the damn hot flashes I have now. Because of this and the dead ovaried he put me on a hormone pill called PREMPRO. Hopefully it will help! I am sick and tired of freezing my butt off one moment then to feel like i’m burning in the deepest pitts in hell. I live in a townhouse so our bedroom is upstairs and as we all know, heat rises. This means that it’s hotter upstairs so I can’t sleep up there with my husband. I’ve been on the couch for weeks now and I can’t wait until I can sleep next to my snoring husband again. =] Plus, i’m having bathroom troubles still so I go to the bathroom ALOT. Also, when I feel the need to go I only have seconds to get my ass on a toilet before I crap my pants. Yes, it has happened. I grew a stinky brown tail in my pants one day when the bathroom was too far away. I should just strap a toilet to my ass and carry some toilet paper in my purse. Slowly but surely I am getting back to normal. Whatever “normal” means. =]

My Bone Density test is this comming Wednesday and I can’t wait. I just want to go and get it over with so I can start my month long vacation. I’m not scared or nervous about it at all. There are no needles for this test. I know this for a fact because I know 2 people who have had this done. It should just be something like an x-ray. My mother had this test done and so did my mother-in-law, Beth. Beth had to have it done because she has cancer too. She was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia last year and had kicked it’s BUTT into remission. You Go Girl! She has been so great to me and so helpful. Because of her I have had someone here I can ask questions to, someone who knows and understands what all I am going through because she has been there – done that. I can NEVER repay her. No words or gift will ever bee good enough. =]

I also got myself a new sex toy. No, it’s not REALLY a sex toy. My radiation doctor told me that because of all of the internal radiation I have a LOT of scar tissue up in there. Since scar tissue draws up, or shrink, I was hiven a medical “tool” to help prevent the closure of my love tunnel. The “tool” is called a Vaginal Dialator, but basically it’s a hard-ass dildo made of plastic. I will have to use this thing for 10 min. every day for THE REST OF MY LIFE. If I don’t then I will close up , forever. That means no more sex. I can’t let that happen! =] I will have to take a picture of this important and very technical medical “tool” so I can post it here. You just have to SEE this thing! I almost laughed when he pulled this sucker out. I thought he was kidding! Maybe I should name it. Yeah! I’ll need your help. What would YOU name it??? Everyone better comment and let me know their choices. Shame on you if you don’t! I mean, I have CANCER and all I am asking is for your help in naming my Coochie Expander! I could name it SuperCooch and have a cute little red Superman cape made for it! Let me know what all you come up with! Give me lots of choices! =]
