Hello ladies! I'm still trucking along. Had some rough weeks. I started losing my hair in large clumps and it was time to shave my head. My amazing fiancé stood behind me and helped me shave it all off and then proceeded to tell me how beautiful I still was. I don't know what I would do without him. I was supposed to get chemo today, but unfortunately my blood levels were too low so I wasn't able to receive treatment this week. I'm a little disappointed because it is a week that I won't be able to kick cancers ass, but I'm hoping by next week I will be stronger and fight it harder! I do have some amazing news though, my tumor in my breast has already shrunk so much that I can't even feel it anymore!!!! My doctor was in utter shock today. She said she never expected it to shrink so fast! The skin also went from being completely purple (I have inflammatory breast cancer so the skin is involved) to being back to normal. I still have the rash from the chemo, but have been working with a dermatologist to treat it. I hope you all are doing well and congratulations to all the ladies who received their BFPs recently!!

You are amazing and beautiful. I'm so glad to hear that you're seeing signs of improvement even though you're not able to get treatment this week. You ARE kicking cancer's ass this week!
You look beautiful! I'm so glad you have a fiancé that makes you feel beautiful and is there for you through all of this.
I am very lucky to have him! I have some women in my breast cancer support group whose husbands treat them like dirt and I just couldn't imagine what they deal with
It's so great to hear that the tumor is shrinking! All the hugs to you and your fiance - he's a gem and you are a rockstar. And he's right - you are beautiful! Keep kicking cancer's ass!

This post brought a huge smile to my face -- especially the clown nose photo. So glad to hear the tumor is shrinking! Can't wait to hear the next great update! xo
Texas children's hospital was taking donations for children with cancer and when you donate they give you that clown nose and I felt it was fitting to wear it when shaving my head because of cancer. It is one of my favorite pictures because we all laughed in a way we haven't for a while!
