About Me
I am the wife of a CHF/Cardiomiapathy DMII, Emphyzema 50 y/o. He has frequent arrhythmia (tach and a-fib) and uncontrolled type II Diabetes. As he gets weaker, more falls on me. We have a six year old son. Added to our life was my diagnosis of Breast Cancer in early October. I've had a mastectomy and four chemo treatments while still caring for hubby and son.

- Chemotherapy Working / Worked
- Cytoxin- Still bald, still tired, dry skin, dry eyes, usual stuff.
- Mastectomy Working / Worked
- Full mast left side. Hated the drain, but otherwise recovered well. Wear a prosthetic.
