I take pics often because I want to capture moments that mean everything to me. This is me at the beginning of this year just capturing the growth of where I am. I was so happy to see all this hair. My first time blowdrying my hair since it has grown back. I shaved my head in Sept/Oct of 2021 because I knew my hair was going to come out due to the chemo treatments. I noticed my hair was coming out and I just didn’t want to see it coming out on a daily basis. So I shaved my head. I mean I lost all hair where you know hair is.. LOL But anywho,

I took this picture because I was saying to myself. WOW! God, you did it, I look good. Yes, I see me, for so long I tend to everyone else but at this moment I actually took a long look into the mirror and was happy with who I saw in the mirror (playing Mary J Blidge, words in my head- no time for mopping around being down….. so I like what I see when I walk past the mirror…that part!!!

I took some time to take a deep breath stared for a minute and was overwhelmingly happy. The journey for the past three years has been definitely been a challenge and still ongoing. I appreciate the time for self-discovery. I have learned some things about myself and I totally highly recommend some type of counseling. So the journey continues ………

     Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is cancer that originates in your lymphatic system, the disease-fighting network spread throughout your body. In non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, tumors develop from lymphocytes — a type of white blood cell. Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is more common than the other general type of lymphoma — Hodgkin lymphoma.

Poem

A Journey Through the Unseen

In shadows where the laughter fades,
Life walks a path with heavy cascades,
Days once bright, now draped in gray,
Yet hope whispers softly, come what may.

A warrior’s heart, worn yet strong,
Battles fought where the brave belong,
Each dawn a canvas, painted anew,
With hues of resilience, courage in view.

There are tears like raindrops, falling free,
Moments of doubt that cling like debris,
But in the quiet, strength finds a way,
In love and connection, we choose to stay.

Through the storm, a flicker of light,
Friends become anchors, holding tight,
Shared laughter dances in whispered tones,
In the fight together, we’re never alone.

The road is winding, with bends unforeseen,
Yet even in darkness, beauty can glean,
In each fleeting heartbeat, life’s tender call,
A reminder of love that conquers all.

So here’s to the journey, the highs and the lows,
In the depths of the struggle, a garden still grows,
With petals of courage, and roots deep and wide,
In the heart of this battle, life’s spirit abides.
