Reality Bites!

With apologies to David Letterman, this is my Top Ten List of the realities of breast cancer and my related ‘adventures.’

10. Razor, blow dryer and curling iron are getting rusty
9. Have discovered that pasta and brown rice are my comfort foods. Whatever happened to chips and salsa??
8. I bought my granddaughter a purple wig for her 4th birthday and her daddy wore it. I need to rethink how I raised that boy!
7. Discovered that hair is over rated. Everyone should be bald!
6. Cabin fever from spending so much time at home. My walls are still pale green!
5. Short-term memory loss (but some say that’s not due to chemo!)
4. Sometimes you just have to cry!
3. My sister-in-law, Kathy, is an angel. She’s not the only one—everyone has been so supportive.
2. Chemotherapy kicks your butt!
1. Never want to hear the term ‘Red Devil’ again (nickname for chemo mixture)
