Update
Just updating on here today.
I've had 7 treatments as of today. So I have 12 radiation treatments to go. I'm doing very well with it. So far my skin isn't dry, red or painful. I have 3 spots that they "zap" me in. Not fun having the cancer back in your spine. Wonder why it chose there...hmmm! Well at least all is well so far. I should be done by Dec 22. Or at least I hope.
Then I will have a PET scan in January to see if we stopped the cancer & make sure no more has showed up. Then I will be back into remission again. So let's all hope so. And cross those fingers & toes that the cancer is gone.
Alright so let's change the subject to something amazing :)
So my sister in law Jennifer gave me this photo contest information. I had to pick 5 photo's for Harbor Country contest. Well ALL 5 of my pictures were picked!! WOW! I was one of the 10 artist picked. So then they have to gallery opening. We go to it and I was told then I was one of 3 artist picked for the final........can you say....OMG!!! Well I did.....LOL!
The pictures that I picked were the one's I took the day I had the CT Scan and I was crying while taking the pictures. Those pictures are the one's that let me be picked for the contest. I am so blessed to have been picked for this.
A thank you goes out to Jennifer for giving me the information for the contest. Now I have to pick 3 of any of my photo's for the next round of the contest. Mind you if I win my photo will be on the cover of Harbor Country mag. WOW! So now I have to choose some new photo's.....ekkkkkkkkkk!
So good things come from a very bad day. I guess you can say when the double rainbow came out I think that was god's way of telling me that it's going to be ok.
Alright must go. Thank you to all who check up on me & read my blog. I hope I help just one person out there.
Thanks everyone :)

Round 3......I will never give up!
Well today on 11-17-10 I had to go and get marked up for my radation.
Then blood work, poked 3 times for that. Then had to get stuck again for my PET scan.
So it was a busy long day for me.
So I should know how long I have to have radation by Thursday. Then see Dr. Kang Monday to know how the PET scan came out. I think I'm going to ask to see it this time. I just want to see what I look like. LOL!
So it's round 3 and I'm ready for the fight once again. Like my shirt says....
I will never give up
I will never give up
I will never give up!
You hear that cancer! Good now get the heck out of my body! GGGRRRRRR!

Susan G Komen 3 day Breast Cancer Walk.
5:15'ish is very early!
You always have to beeeeeeeeeeeeeee POSITIVE.........if your not where would you be in life?
Steve & I.
Volunter's. Don't you love their bra's!?LOL! 
Leslie, Georgeanna, Me, Jackie & Janet
Leslie, Georgeanna, Me, Jackie & Janet
Janet's family
I have to say that they really know how to get you going in the morning. Amazing is all I have to say!
Jackie taking a picture of me as I take a picture of her...LOL!
The view from the hill.
There goes my hero's....watch them as they go...
Thumbs up from Georgeann ;)
This is for my Aunt Darlene. She's very strong. She's a survivor.
This is for my Aunt Deanna. She never knew how strong she was. We lost her early this year.
This is for my mom. She taught me to be strong. She taught me to be strong & laugh alot. 13 years strong.
This is for Steve's mom Nancy. She's strong too.
She's 12 years strong.
Thumbs up still before lunch. Day 1
It wasn't to hot while they were walking. So glad it was 70 to maybe 74. Great weather. I didn't know how dry it was out there. You must drink A LOT of water ;)
Lunch time.
Lunch time is a time to let your feet air out, change your socks and catch your second wind.
There's a lot to this 3 day walk. You must be ready for this. These woman are amazing.
There they go again ;)
Steve making sure all is well with the girls. Even Steve matched the girls!
Nothing like seeing lines of pink tents. I was in awwwwwww.
Pink tent city.
An end to the first day of walking. Now it's time to rest up. Clean up. Then get to bed because day 2 is the longest day for all of them. 22 miles or even a few more. Who knows. It by far is the hardest day for them.
Even the doggie's got into it!
There he was, a dog like Molly. Just a little taller. Kinda made me home sick.
But hey the doggie's enjoyed the day too.
A Boston for Kris! And it's a girl :)
Cheer Station for the walkers.
Look Jackie is taken a picture. They all took pictures everyday of their walk. Strong ladies!
I don't know how Georgeann finished this walk.
If you saw her foot you would be like how?!
I'm not sure how she did it. I have never seen
Blisters so big before. She's amazing!
Alright! I have to say these husband/guys were so funny! Ballon boobies & cowboy hats! Oh and can't forget the "10's" everyone got as they walked by. If that didn't cheer you up I don't know what would.
I have to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU & THANK YOU! They walk for all of us. They walked for those who have gone before us, their mother's, aunt's, sister's, cousin's, best friends, grandma's, grandpa's, husband's, fathers' & brother's. Breast cancer strikes not only woman but men too.
So we have to say thank you to all who volunteer, those who walk and those who cheer them on. It was heartbreaking and super fun to be there to watch. God bless each and everyone one of you.

Their biggest fans & the walkers. Way to go girls! You really kicked some butt there! Yahooo!

Here I go again.....check this place out!
So here we are on Camel Back Moutain. I did not make it all the way to the top. As you see in the pictures there were no steps for me. Steve did hike all the way up. Hey that's ok with me. After chemo I' m not the Energizer bunny..lol! But I made it to the bottom of the last part. 3/8 mile marker. Not bad I do say.
I have to say this area is so amazing! I wouldn't of been there if it wasn't for Georgeann doing the Susan G Komen 3 day walk. I have never seen so many awesome women and men who so care about breast cancer. They walked the walk let me tell ya! 60 miles in 3 days! BRAVO! These amazing folks kicked some butt out there! Their all my hero's!
