Even with feeling better, I still don't feel great and dread my next chemo treatment. So I am reminding myself that I am taking baby steps. Each day, a little further. So, here's to baby steps...and great professional help!

Baby Steps
Today is the first day since my second round of AC (Adriamycin and Cytoxan) that I feel pretty good and have been able to get a bit done. Today my professional organizer extraordinaire Kammie came over and worked on getting this apartment in shape. It's amazing what a mess I can make when I am sick! I decided to work with an organizer after I moved into the new place and had to scale back to a much smaller place and deal with Gessner's stuff, etc. In a wave of self-care, I hired Kammie to come over once a week and help out with house stuff and organizing. It feels so self-indulgent, but I am finally admitting that I actually need help and Kammie is amazing at her job, so I think that it is a win-win situation.

Hi, Lisa. My name is Lisa as well and I'm 33yrs too. Just started my first chemo for breast cancer stage 2b yesterday. I'm on AC now. I'm really glad to have found your blog and realized that there's someone out there who will be able to understand how I'm feeling now. Take care and let's fight this together!
Baby steps is my mantra. Hang in there Lisa! xoxo
