Chemo Again


It is hard to believe and to actually realize that I am going through chemo treatments AGAIN, nine years after the adriamycin-cytoxin-taxotere that I was given in 2002.

This July I was diagnosed with secondary angiosarcoma of the breast, a rare form of cancer that forms as a result of radiation treatments for breast cancer. I had a mastectomy in July (2011) and in September I began 12 treatments of Taxol and Gemcitabine. I have two weeks on and one week off, so this is going to be going on until the end of January 2012.

So here I go... on the road again... and what a blessing it is to have gone through a similar journey once, and to have learned the lessons that I have learned, which I put forth into my book, Bright Side of the Road. I am finding that I am able to integrate these lessons into THIS new journey towards wellness. And I will be writing about these lessons in this blog.
