Oncology Update

 




I went to the oncology doctor for a check up after 6 months from radiation.  She said my labs look good.  I'm doing fine! You can see my hair growing back, too.  I took a before and after picture of my hair color.   I tried to go a little blonde and get my hair cut with some shape & style.  I can't get used to it! 

Sometimes in therapy, we talk about how when something big happens to you, you need to get used to it being the "new normal."  I suppose this is the new normal for me.  For now.  I want to try and get more healthy by swimming and eating better.  The lack of ability to even use my arms for heavy work right now has made me feel so sluggish and I'm eating chocolate for comfort!  Yikes.

I hope you are doing well!

Love,
Julie
