Megan's Breast Cancer Journal: Stupid Chemo or Chemo Stupid
http://megansbreastcancerjournal.blogspot.com/2011/04/stupid-chemo-or-chemo-stupid.html
Monday, April 18, 2011. Stupid Chemo or Chemo Stupid. Today I had my well-woman check up at my primary physician's office. I mean, it's standard practice; I have had one every single year for the last 22 years. I'm not quite sure why I'm here today. At least that's what I told the nurse when she asked, what are we checking today, Ms. Megan. I mean, I have no female parts anymore that need checking on. So, yeah, why am. Take a look at the mug up above) blame it on the chemo. She asked me when I was going ...

Megan's Breast Cancer Journal: May 2011
http://megansbreastcancerjournal.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Dear Diary - Story of a lock-box auction. I was reading a story the other day about a strange type of auction; one in which you bid for the mysterious contents of unclaimed bank lock-boxes. Can you imagine? To write in their diary, how they carefully locked them with that special little key, where they hid them so their parents would not find them (that was absolutely vital). A. Ll I felt was left out of something so big and important that was taking place all around me. Everyo...

Megan's Breast Cancer Journal: Toss That Wig
http://megansbreastcancerjournal.blogspot.com/2011/06/toss-that-wig.html
Monday, June 20, 2011. This (before haircut - whatdoyathink? Photo was taken in early June when Dwain and I traveled to Salt Lake City to visit our daughter Jayme and our three grandsons, David, Mark and Gabe. Those snow-capped mountains behind me are the Wasatch range that totally surround Salt Lake City in every direction. Dwain is the one who suggested that I needed to get my hair cut. It's hard to believe. I actually thought Amy, my hairdresser, would laugh - not exactly laugh AT me but. Check out th...

Megan's Breast Cancer Journal: Mastectomy Bras and Breast Forms
http://megansbreastcancerjournal.blogspot.com/2011/11/mastectomy-bras-and-breast-forms.html
Saturday, November 5, 2011. Mastectomy Bras and Breast Forms. This is my husband Dwain and me - posing at a regular tourist stop in the fall, mainly because of the incredible beauty of the sugar maple trees. But this is also where most of our family, friends and dear loved ones are buried - Maplewood Cemetery. I could not start this blog without a couple of updated photos, now could I? I mean, it's been, what? And I thought I knew so much in June. NOT! And I wore these every day for a couple of months, e...

Megan's Breast Cancer Journal: December 2010
http://megansbreastcancerjournal.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 30, 2010. A Lifetime's Not Too Long To Live As Friends. The title of my blog today is part of a song called Friends. Written by Deborah D. Smith, music by Michael W. Smith. Below the song you will see pictures of these friends and an accompanying story. Packing up the dreams God planted. In the fertile soil of you. Can't believe the hopes He's granted. Means a chapter in your life is through. But we'll keep you close as always. It won't even seem you've gone. She said. She offered ...

Thursday, February 24, 2011. Are There Worse Things Than No Hair? When I first learned I was going to have chemo I thought losing my hair WAS going to be the worst thing that could happen. This was a card I got from Ann Main. Nothing like getting sympathy from someone who has walked in my shoes. The past few days I have felt almost like a regular person. I'm not ready for that feeling to end. I guess that's why there is a ten percent - someone fit that category, and I don't want that someone to be me.

http://megansbreastcancerjournal.blogspot.com/2013/08/hello-megan-i-was-just-asking-mr.html
Friday, August 2, 2013. Dear Karla: You Guys Encourge Her, Okay? Hello, Megan :-). I was just asking Mr. Google a question this morning about chemo cough and lo and behold I find your journal blogging about breast cancer. And chemo cough with dripping nose, which I now have both. I have one more chemo next Friday. Forget that you even had to go through this awfulness at all (until you see that chest scar in the mirror every morning, HA! What will happen to me? And Karla, you will survive. Hi, My name is ...
