Sorry, I have been quite for a while. There just has not been much going on as far as the cancer part of our lives and there has been a lot going on in all the rest of our lives.
Jill had her 4th radiation treatment so far today. So far, totally uneventful. No additional fatigue or skin issues, but we have been told those are all cumulative and will be coming in the near future.
Jill is struggling with what to wear on the hot days, at work or on the boat. She has one boob and has lots of marking on her chest and armpit that extend near her neck. On the flip side, her hair is growing back! She has quite a bit on her head now. Much to her dismay, it is growing back everywhere . . . like her legs that she has not had to shave in a long time. Good with bad I guess. Jill is also figuring out what hats work best in the summer. I suspect she will be more of a hat girl from now on. I hope so – I am now so used to it.
More news when there is more to report. We meet with the Plastics doc in the next week or two.
So glad to hear you're doing great!! I'm having the same "issues" with what to wear; there is a huge market for women like us - we should design some simple clothing. It's so hard; I did find a bathing suit that covers the front very well and it doesn't look like my grandmother loaned it to me. :)
ReplyDeleteWhich plastic surgeon? I'm scheduled for my first surgery on 7/11, I chose the expander route.
Call me soon - I can't find your number.
Enjoy the summer!!!

Hey Girlfriend! So glad to hear about the uneventful and the return of hair. HOpe to see you soon; I miss you.
ReplyDeleteWell that's good news that Jill has to deal with hair growth:) That's a good thing:)
ReplyDeleteKeeping you in my prayers.
Jill/Greg,
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping us posted even if it is uneventful! I did get the email about Holly not playing, and totally understand your decision, but you all will be missed!!!! Please keep in touch! Even though we are not "teamed" in soccer, we are still part of your "Team Jill." We hope to see you around and keep us in touch if Holly plays Rec and her game times...we might be on the field and catch a game! Jill and family will continue to be in our prayers!!
