More DOs

I have soooooo much stuff running through my head it kinda hurts. Just kidding. I do have a lot of thoughts though that I do so want to share.

Another do. Do allow yourself as many days as you need to bounce back from whatever treatment you are having. BUT !!!! the second you even start to feel better get up and get going. My treatments are every other week. It is so funny because everyone knows we call it "bad week" "good week". Many of my friends keep up with my schedule and we make plans all around my "good weeks". It is a little annoying to live like that BUT !!!! the point is you are LIVING !!!  Look at every second different. You will find that some things you thought might be the most important are merely a speck in the whole picture.

I have done things that I never would have done if not for the cancer. Plan vacations !!!!! So far I have been to a dude ranch, visited my son, his wife and my grandson in Seattle, the big one was a cruise to Europe with three of my BFFs. Talk about fun !!! People ask me what I liked best and I always have to say just being with my friends. What an experience. I am going back up to Seattle in May and then Gary and I will be going on our third cruise to Alaska. The other two I wasn't sick though. I love Alaska!

Another BIG do is when you go ANYWHERE fix yourself up. Put makeup on, your wig if you have/need one and put some nice clothes on. NO sweat pants allowed. You feel so much better. My friends have a hard time realizing I am sick because I try to look good , therefore I feel good, therefore I look good. See how it kinda works.

Every situation is different. You have to learn the pattern of how you are going to feel and plan around it. Alright I guess enough for now.
