Whatever Tomorrow Brings, I'll Be There - Bucket List

 I told the AI image generator on Canva to create an image of an "African-American woman dancing on a beach." The first couple weren't bad.





Then it got weird.



Then I asked DALL-E to do the same:




I guess I'm supposed to be half-naked when I dance?

The end...and a new beginning....

The sad part is over...but it's a new beginning!!! via GIPHY  Well, guys, it's all over. Sort of. My PET scan came back clear...but I do have to do surveillance scans every few months for the next few years. This type of cancer has a very high recurrence rate, and a heartbreakingly low 5-year survival rate (about 18% for the stage I was at). So I will have to keep checking up on it for the rest of my life. But no matter what... I still have hope. I still have joy. I still have few, if any, regrets in my life. And I'm STILL GOING TO BRUNEI!!!!! via GIPHY Yes, the doc has given me the full ok to go! I have my ticket, leaving on April 2nd, and I'm in the process of going through my things to decide what to take, what to store, what to give away and what to throw away. Basically, the same thing I do every time I move to a new country. I am absolutely THRILLED! I can't even tell you how happy I am. I probably won't continue this blog, but there's a decent chance...

Surgery Day!

  Doomsday has arrived.... dun dun dun!!!!!! The day started off with a bang - I totally overslept! I meant to get up by 5, do yoga, meditate, take my shower with Hibiclens (gotta wash away those germs!), and hop into the car about 6:15 to head to the hospital.  Instead... I woke up at 6! With my brother saying, uh, we need to leave in 15 minutes. I shot up and started rushing! Luckily I had everything ready and only needed to shower, but still! But we got to UCSF on time, I'm currently in preop, absolutely starving (I was on liquids only yesterday - so hungry!), and keeping calm for a long day.  Well, I'll be asleep for it, but it'll still be long.  See you on the other side!

It was too good to last....

  not an actual image of my hands and feet So chemo started a few weeks ago, and things had been going fine...until about a week and a half ago. My feet started tingling, and the soles started turning really dark. Very strange. I did a bit of research, and apparently one of the side effects of one of the chemo drugs I'm taking is something called Hand-Foot Syndrome, or palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia . I mentioned it to the nurse practitioner during my next appointment, and she said it was too soon for that to develop. Bitch. Within days, the tingling grew to actual pain, to the point I couldn't put shoes on. Then the palms of my hands started getting dark and hurting. I told my oncologist during my next appointment, and he is reducing my oral chemo dosage and prescribed Percocet for the pain. He also said he wants to reduce the number of weeks I do the oral chemo, to 2 weeks with a one-week break, instead of three weeks with a one-week break. This week is my break, and with...
