After my x-ray last week it was determined that my cancer was not responding to the latest treatment…a pill called Tarceva. So we are back to a chemo treatment ( Taxotere). This will be the third time I’ve had to take a deep breath in to find strength to renew my resolve to regain my health. I will exercise more, eat better and put more balance into my life.

During my last stretch of chemo I found it helpful to invite friends and family to join me a night or two before the chemo in a sweet treat to smash the cancer. What ever town and state you are in pause and join me in a little fun as I make my way to health. Many believe that eating sugar feeds the cancer cells helping them grow. Whether this is positively true or not, I know it certainly does not hurt me to cut way back on my sugar intake. That is my goal but to add a little balance (and fun!) why not enjoy a sweet treat right before zapping those cancer cells with a heavy chemical. Last round of chemo we enjoyed ice cream, cheese cake, cookies, brownies to name a few. I seem to be in the ice cream mode lately. Maybe it’s the hot weather.

Send me pictures, if you like, of you and yours enjoying a sweet treat together. I will put them up on the site or not….just let me know. We can all smile together…laughter being the best medicine.

Thank you for your love and support!
