The ball is rolling forward

Today is one day before my second Chemo treatment. 2 months late! I went to the plastic surgeons office for a fill on my left expander. Tomorrow is my 2nd chemo therapy. The ball is rolling forward finally after two months of infections and surgery on right breast having cellulitis and right expander removed because of cellulitis. Healing has been good after many rounds of oral and infused antibiotics. 

I hope and pray that I can stay healthy after this chemo to have another one in two weeks. 

Memories

I remember that breath taking moment the breast surgeon said you will need chemo therapy. It caught me off guard even knowing I needed it. I immediately thought of how chemo treated my dad when he was in his last weeks of life dying of lung, liver and bone cancer. 

I could feel my face scrunch up trying to hold back my tears with hubby to my side and the breast surgeon reaching and offering me a tissue to catch my tears. Sobs came out of me, I turned beat red and just let the tears fall. 

I hate cancer!
