So there you have it....I went from zero to Fear-o in one quick conversation and went from having just my beloved gyno caring for me to a handful of docs, all kinds of meds, chemo, surgeries (hysterectomy and putting the port in) and all kinds of other scary stuff.

But I wanted to give you a little laugh and a little insight into what it's like to be me...

so hear you go...

all the fun of cancer!!!!!
