I just wanted to give an update on health issues for everyone. The original sinus infection resolved, but now I seem to have picked up another infection of some sort. The pain in the side is still there, and the pain over my gallbladder surgery scar has intensified. (Ripping a new hernia, maybe?) As for
*Updated 11/18/14 to add Joann Fabrics* Yes, it’s that time of year again! The Black Friday specials have just started to be leaked. As usual, Hobby Lobby does not participate. Also, A.C.

As many of you who have read my cancer journey have read, I did not have a family history of ovarian or breast cancer. I also did not have a history of any related cancers such as colon cancer. Part of things fell into place when my mom found an old wallet card of my maternal grandfather’s
I’ve slacked off a bit with monthly updates for cancer awareness. *blushes* I’ve jumped back into it in the month containing the most cancers for the entire year.
