Seeing as how this is October, and we’re all being swarmed with pink ribbons, I wanted to make a little post for those of you who want to make various printouts and web graphics for this month. The best thing is, most of these goodies will not cost you a cent! Fonts: The one font […]

Yes, I know. It has been over a month since I last posted an update on the state of my health. I really wish I had something better to report. It seems that as each day passes, I feel worse. I cannot get out of bed long, without getting very dizzy and nauseous. Really, I only
I think October is the awareness month that so many people are familiar with, if only for the fact that the pink ribbon products are in their face no matter where they shop. It is so wonderful that breast cancer gets attention, and money towards the cause with the purchase of these items. But, breast

I have used my blog not only to tell my story, but also keep the lines open for others to share their journey. Cameron Von St. James shared his caregiver story in January (see original post here: http://www.tlkpride.org/knarrlysblog/holding-on-to-hope-as-a-caregiver/). Cameron’s wife, Heather, is a Mesothelioma survivor. I also posted an update story for Heather, regarding her video

Despite being stuck in bed the past few months, I wanted to do something craft related for September, which is ovarian cancer awareness month! Somehow, these ideas hit me out of the blue, and it was Sierra who nudged me in the right direction. She was mentioning that she wanted to switch from the dog tag

(For previous posts on this subject, see part 1, part 2, and part 3.) Well, it has officially been almost 7 weeks since I have been sick. Most of that time has been spent in bed, as I am too weak to walk around. The newest set of bloodwork did not show anything, so I

It has now been 5 1/2 weeks, and the sickness continues. (More previous info in part 1 and part 2.) Shortly after my last post on August 16, I ended up in the emergency room later that evening with horrible abdominal pain. This, of course, included more doctors baffled over the rash. After more blood

September is my favorite cancer awareness month, because it highlights a cause very dear to my own heart: ovarian cancer. That being said, it is also the busiest cancer awareness month, with 9 types of cancers being showcased. These cancers are, in total: ovarian cancer, childhood cancers, overall gynecologic cancers, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, leukemia, lymphoma, multiple

It occurred to me it is nearing the end of the month, and I have not posted my monthly awareness type post. But, it is not exactly an oversight. Because no cancer claims August for it’s own. I will keep this short. Use this month to think about ALL cancers. Remember, it’s not all about
