      I got a little relief from some responsibility. Well, at least I got a little extra time. I get to relax a little bit.

    • Close Ovarian Cancer

      I'm an overian cancer survivor. I was diagnosed in 1987 (Stage III) at the age of 36. Didn't have a good prognosis and a family history of breast and ovarian cancer (mother,aunts, sisters). But as the song says "I will survive!"

      Treatments

      Chemotherapy Working / Worked
      Good stuff. I had heard horror stories. But it wasn't bad at all. I had eight treatments. I went once every three weeks.
    • Close Infidelity

      I dated my husband for two years before we married. A month before our 25th anniversay, I found out that he had been cheating on me. This pain hurt me more than any pain I have ever known. In hindsight, I should have known.

    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I know what to do, but I just won't do it. In my younger years, I was always in front of a mirror. Now I avoid them. I'm not ugly or anything. I just miss that pretty thin thing that used to look back at me in the mirror. Now, I need to lose 40 pounds.

      Treatments

      Alli Working / Worked
      Using it now. I'm trying to have 12 pounds lost by Christmas.
      Atkins Diet Working / Worked
      Lost really fast at first. But you eat a few carbs and it all comes back. Now it doesn't seem to work anymore.
      Curves Working / Worked
      It was okay.
      Dancing Working / Worked
      Ballroom dancing - loved it. Too expensive.
    • Open Breast Cancer

      Breast Cancer in 2000. Double mastectomy. Doing fine now. Survived ovarian cancer (stage 3) in 1987.

      Treatments

      Adriamycin Working / Worked
      For ovarian cancer. But I couldn't use it for breast cancer. It would have caused heart problems. That's a good reason to know what drugs you've had in the past.
      Cisplatin Working / Worked
      Worked well.
      Mastectomy Working / Worked
      One was neccessary. The other was preventative.
