Slurpin’ ain’t easy, but I’m happy to report that I am alive and well bc of this cold icee and despite today’s 107° temp. #iceelife 🥤
Not sure if you’ve noticed, but I took a little hiatus from social so I could process the news I received regarding my scan results. Thank you to everyone who has reached out, sending me good vibes and lots of love...I’m forever grateful. 💙
In other news, I’m excited to share that Steve and I bought a house! Through this process we have found that adulting is an extreme sport, however we are thrilled to become new homeowners. It’s also a great distraction for me and everything that’s going on with my health...HELLO new decor, BUHBYE $$$! The house is WAY larger than the condo we’ve lived in for the past 6 years, so that much space is something we’ll have to get used to. We also have a conversation pit (so retro), a wet bar, and a big ass yard with a pool to name a few things. We had our inspection today and we’ve quickly learned a lot of things about being homeowners. If all goes as planned we will be closing on the 13th of September! Pictures to follow soon! Yahoooo! 😘🏡🎉 #homeowners #qt #chucktaylors #ootd
Yesterday prior to my infusion, I saw my Oncologist to receive the news of my recent scans. Initially I was overcome with defeat as the update did not go as expected. I’ve been making strides since beginning my treatment with CTCA, seeing week over week decreasing numbers; leaving me to slowly, but surely feel like myself again. The entire goal of this treatment was to remain realistic and strive for progress and stability, not perfection. Yet, during the visit I was informed that one of the tumors intertwined in my liver has grown. There are also new tumors on my lungs, along with an increase in size for the ones that already exist. I gave myself a moment to feel it all, then I was reminded that I must believe in myself first and foremost, and not the cancer. For six years I’ve faced it all and will continue to do so, even if at times it feels impossible. Persistence is my middle name and I’m going to allow the pain to teach me to be the very best version of myself. To all my bad ass babes out there fighting a fight, bet on yourself, HONEY. 💋🍯 💪 PS- this is my 124th round of chemo 💙

There is strength in sisterhood; reminding one another we are fierce, we are brave, and we are strong. In my humble opinion, we deserve the world, damnit — so we decided to give it to ourselves by sprinkling magic over our weekend with a mini staycay at the AZ Biltmore. Safe to say I departed feeling refreshed and recharged. Find yourself a girl gang *in my case bff sis in-laws*, get pampered and love each other freely and loyally. 💕💪💯 👑 *note- I only took two photos bc I was living in the mo. — can you believe...who am I even?!?! EL OH EL! 🤪
