Thanks for Visiting!

Welcome to my blog.  I hope you visit often.  Become a "follower", please leave comments - be as interactive as you wish.  I welcome it all.

Let me explain a little bit about what I hope to accomplish here.  8 months ago I was diagnosed with Stage IV Breast Cancer and since that time I've been on countless forums and read hundreds of blogs written by women "just like me".  The only problem is I've had a hard time identifying with a lot of the people who are "just like me".  Of course there are similarities in the treatments we're receiving and in the names of the drugs that are coursing through our veins with the hope of trying to save us.  Oh, and none of us want to die.  Duh.  Having said that, my writings here are not meant to undermine or alienate anyone who may be going through (or gone through) a similar situation.  I just felt that an unapologetic, take-no-prisoners type approach to the life of a 40-something, single mom living and dealing with Stage IV Breast Cancer was missing from the blogosphere.  So here it is in all of my fucked up and skewed way of looking at things. 

Oh yeah, I will swear a lot - of that you can be sure.  If you are easily offended by such things this may not be the place for you.
