Celebrating almost 14 years since diagnosis of stage IIIC ovarian cancer, recently restaged to IVB. My blog is called Nobody Has Ovarian Cancer because I felt like a nobody upon the eventual correct diagnosis. Being told multiple times that I was too young to have ovarian cancer, I did not receive the proper testing. I am so grateful to Him for all those who allow me to share my love, to those who love me and those who treat my illness. I praise Him always.Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.comBlogger496125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-65869788504016684062023-10-24T22:51:00.001-06:002023-10-24T23:03:57.875-06:00“What Do You Want Me To Do About It?”<p>An almost perfect stay at a local hospital turned into the hospitalist treating me like I don’t matter. Trying my best. I went to ER on October 15, 2023 with excruciating abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and shortness of breath.</p><p>Scan showed pleural effusions, right greater than left. My absolute neutrophil counts were critically low.</p><p>During my stay I was seen by 2 hospitalists and a new one on the day of discharge.</p><p>The pulmonologist told me Monday he was not aware of pathology of pleural fluid. 2 liters right, 1 liter left (Fri/Mon). I had 2 different pulmonologists. </p><p>I’m finally home on oxygen and dilaudid. Counts much better. Exhausted, barely eating and weak.</p><p>Monday night I read through the notes and I find that there WAS a path done on Friday’s pleural fluid.</p><p>The report stated that right plerural fluid is positive for malignemt cells! That is traumatic info.</p><p>There I was all by myself, not even expecting the report, learning that everything from this point forward will be different. My CA125 is almost 2000.</p><p>I cried and told my friend Pat when he arrived later that eve to take my car home. After he and Sarah left I asked my night nurse why am I finding this bad news by reading it in my patient portal? I said I wanted to talk with the hospitalist first thing. Of course that did not happen. </p><p>My Monday hospitalist could have alerted the on-call hospitalist to tell me in person, but that did not happen.</p><p>This morning I asked to see a patient rep because the new hospitalist just kept saying there was nothing she could do. She got defensive and kept complaining that she had just got there (hours ago). No apology. </p><p>Nothing. This was traumatizing information that should have been given to me by a caring person. Instead I read about it like you would any lab result. </p><p>Then an administrator came in and behaved worse, she said “what do you want me to do about it?” As if I am wrong for expecting better care. What did I do wrong?</p><p>This entire hospital visit has been terrifying because I am being forced to have conversations I’m not ready for. I had no idea I would be in hospital for over a week.</p><p>I haven’t even had a chance to talk with my gynonc. She is in Greeley/Loveland. I live 2 hours away from there. I finished radiation on Wed and had to go to ER on Sunday. None of this was expected. </p><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">I had heard thar I can keep getting my lungs drained. It looks like hospice is on the horizon. I don’t want any more treatments that throw me in the ER. I can’t take it any more. </span></p><p>I will update later in the week when the fog clears. I want to stay home this week. I have to process the trauma from the hospitslists’s complete disregard for my state of well being. Why is this so hard? Because I am alone.</p><p>God Bless you from Denise</p><p><br></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09577591931864531122noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-29495928790767554852023-10-09T10:35:00.003-06:002023-10-09T10:45:51.884-06:00My Safe Place Is With Jesus<p>There is a link to our cancer ministry below. I’m certain you are confused, how could someone with so many medical traumas and emotional traumas be faithful?</p><p>Last week I went to confession, received an anointing of the sick and enrolled in the brown scapular. God is allowing my PTSD. God is allowing my cancer. God is allowing me to have difficult relationships and experience abandonment. </p><p>Jesus experienced the ultimate suffering as an innocent Lamb of God. Every day I think about how nice it would be to have a “normal” life, even with cancer. </p><p>I rely on really amazing friends and have extended family that talks with me. God is good. </p><p>If I did not embrace Jesus I would probably have committed suicide by now. It’s strange. My cancer is very bad, CA125 raising.</p><p>I miss Dr. Gray so much. She took such good care of me. I regret leaving Seattle to come here, where I am not wanted. I sacrificed my health because I got better care there.</p><p>My job is to pray for those who have rejected me. Many cancer patients experience rejection eventually. It is a piercing pain. It is what it is. That is why we need Jesus. </p><p>Jesus loves you and will not abandon you. We have heaven awaiting us as our eternal home, all we need to do is say YES. </p><p>Confession releases us from our sin as Jesus absolves us. We repent and make reparation. Jesus forgets our sin and repays our sin. </p><p>Sometimes I want to stop talking altogether except to pray. It is my voice, my tone that gets me in trouble. Maybe God is saying to just pray, embrace silence. That sounds good. </p><p>My radiation treatments will end after two more sessions. I think my good gynonc wants me to resume chemo. It took 6 weeks to recover from most recent Gemzar. I am not sure I can tolerate chemo. </p><p>Hospice is looming. I’m not ready but I’m tired. God Bless you.</p><p><a href="https://facingourimmortality.org/2023/10/05/an-examination-of-love-spiritual-exercise-10-09-23/">https://facingourimmortality.org/2023/10/05/an-examination-of-love-spiritual-exercise-10-09-23/</a></p><p><a href="https://facingourimmortality.org/2023/10/05/an-examination-of-love-spiritual-exercise-10-09-23/"></a><br></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09577591931864531122noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-37836552673268533792023-10-04T13:27:00.001-06:002023-10-04T13:27:51.005-06:00Short Consult Note<p>My radiation oncologist took a long time to show me radiology images and in detail explain the treated areas.

I have 2 more radiation treatments. I explained my PTSD to him and he will refer me to the oncology psychologist.</p><p>We are talking plans after radiation sessions end and I will get labs/UA before next two radiation treatments. </p><p>My 1900 CA125 scares me. </p><p>I think I want palliative colostomy if I go into hospice.</p><p>I am not ready for hospice.

I hope you are well. </p><p>I had Gemcitabine and MVASI Thursday (24th) and ended up in the ER on the 25th. My new gynonc was able to figure out dosing for both Gemcitabine and Granix, thankfully. My regimine has required me to take a morphine pill after my Granix on Fridays. It renders me to bed by 6:00 on Fridays. We changed out Morphine this week to Tramedol because I cannot tolerate morphine side effects. But if I don’t avert bone pain from Granix I end up crawling on floor, unable to walk and<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"> my spinal cord feels like it is on fire. My new gynonc has made it possible to get Gemcitabine, which was the only recent chemotherapy that lowered my cancer markers.</span></p><p>FYI: Gcmcitabine can cause extreme drops in cell counts and platelets. It can also cause severe kidney problems. It causes severe fatigue. </p><p>This past treatment on the 24th caused me extreme right torso pain and unbelievable nausea, awful taste in mouth, fevers. It hurt to walk. I barely made it into the hospital. I was advised by my gynonc to go to ER (I called Friday). </p><p>My gynonc is in Greeley and I get my Granix in Parker. This is the only way I can get treatments unless I go back to the doctors that provided bad care. PTSD!!!!!</p><p>On Friday I received my very important Granix. The nurse thankfully accessed my power port and they subsequently escorted me into the ED, which was literally down the hall. I didn’t trust ED to understand all that has happened, which was why I got my granix shot/port access first. The port allows them to draw labs and administer meds without multiple jabs in into my arm.</p><p>I am hoping these details help you understand the complexities of cancer care, especially if things go poorly after a treatment. I wanted them to admit me bit I guess I was not sick enough. They were kind, that mattered a great deal.</p><p>The result of CT scanning and lab work showed severe UTI, large amounts of blood in the urine. They gave one dose of IV antibiotic and some fluids and a Tramedol. It made very little difference. Sent me home with a blanket and a prescription to pick up.</p><p>Saturday my friend Pat picked up my prescription (he is my best friend from church). My cousin brought food and her visit with me cheered me up.</p><p>The past 5 days have been agony. Today I was instructed to call a service named Dispatch Health to give me fluids, antibiotics and anti-nausea at home. I have barely eaten and am barely drinking water. My nausea is interfering with my antibiotic plan. I have meds for nausea but they are not working very well.</p><p>Hoping I feel a little better tomorrow.</p><p>REASON THIS IS SCARY: I have a bladder dome tumor (mets) that is growing. This is the tumor that was visible on a scan Feb 2021 but the radiologist missed it. It was there, he MISSED IT. My complaints got squashed. The tumor was noted to have “grown since last scan” in Fed 2022. I was outraged of course. Now I am just defeated. I don’t understand why you have to die to take a doctor to court.</p><p>Currently the blood in my urine is also sign that bladder dome mets is expanding to other parts of urinary system. It is also a side effect of Gemcitabine. </p><p>I would not be in this boat if the radiologist would have noted the smaller tumor back in 2021.</p><p>So please pray that this episode is stricly bad side effect of Gemcitabine and not a sign of increasing bladder cancer. The CT report from the 25th states that my bladder dome tumor is larger than this past May.</p><p>I can’t work unless I work from home. I’m too sick.</p><p>Love,</p><p>Denise</p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1mwfNrtjxk5vUe9Ij7RiU80vw1w9JJru5" alt="Pat" width="300" height="300"><br></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09577591931864531122noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-82528348401904300432023-06-07T19:18:00.001-06:002023-06-07T19:18:28.209-06:002023 Gemzar More Than Given In Sept 2020<p>My most recent oncologist got upset with me because I asked him (during video appointment) why he gave me more Gemcitabine than I approved. He claims he cleared it with me on the day of the visit. I sent multiple messages the days prior to my i fusion requesting a smaller dose, with one saying as low as 250. Not being a pharmacist I am unaware of how the infusion amount is adjusted to body weight. I weigh a lot less than in 2020 and my immune system is weaker than in 2020. He and the pharmacist made an enormous mistake. You judge, maybe I am wrong. </p><p>1. Dose ordered on 9/11/2020 was 600 mg/m2 and I ended up in hospital being severely neutropenic and needed a platelet transfusion. Good result was my CA125 went down significantly. That is the only reason I kept Gemcitabine as an option, but at their protocol’s reduced rate. There is a protocol to dose reduce for adverse reactions and I expected my second oncologist to follow that. He didn’t. </p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1GbQn_mFl3Ygxwf3Oa_X589MGj6fZoRwW" width="300" height="300" style="transform: rotate(0deg);"><br></p><p><br></p><p>2. 04/25/23 My second Colorado oncologist, who was supposed to be my safe place (bec other gynonc missed my recurrence in 2021) finally agreed to try Gemcitabine again. By April 2023 Taxol had not been working and switching to Lymparza only caused me more damage, depleting my bone marrow with even small doses. </p><p>Remember, I had told both oncologists in Colorado that my gynonc in Seattle told me never to take PARP inhibitors because of my weak bone marrow. Yet these oncs in Colorado pushed and pushed. Now I am extremely weak. </p><p>The second oncologist and his pharmacist must not have researched my Gemcitabine history. I begged for small dose in April 2023 from which we could build up, add more, instead of working backwards. I am invisible and don’t matter. If I mattered to them they would have listened. Resuming Gemzar on small doses was part of the treatment plan, second oncologist not even following his plan. </p><p>My second oncologist, on 04/25/23, ordered 750 mg/m2 of Gemcitabine! I could be wrong, but this is more than what was ordered for 09/11/2023 (600 mg/m2). If the smaller dose on 09/11/2020 put me in the hospital what could possibly be the reason to give me a larger dose of 750 mg/m2 on 04/23/25? Why??????? </p><p>If I am wrong, please someone explain…</p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=17QED44i1XZsRffcB0ct0e-NkdhTzmFsa" width="300" height="300"><br></p><p><br></p><p>My second Colorado oncologist never once had a conversation with me about being downgraded to Stage 4B. I have had horrible cancer care at this teaching hospital. How is it that my first gynonc misses my recurrence and my second oncologist gives me too much Gemcitabine? The second oncologist and his pharmacist should not be allowed to practice and if I have to move to get better care, they should have to pay the money for it. I got called names by the second oncologist because I was upset when asking him to justify his dose. I did not use any foul language but he called me beligerant. He wrote that he owed me no answers….as if he was offended. He caused me serious damage. I’m deeply depressed and sad.</p><p>I feel blank and it is obvious that I don’t matter anymore. It’s hard to face the new days not being able to get simple cancer care free of medical errors. I am not worthy in their eyes. I am very depressed. </p><p>Maybe a 3rd gynonc will care. God keeps me here and it truly is only in Him that I find any hope or peace. </p><p>Denise</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09577591931864531122noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-30520515629187824482023-05-13T00:11:00.003-06:002023-05-19T17:03:47.511-06:00Mom I Need You <p>It’s Mother’s Day weekend. I miss my mom! Now I am dealing with consequences of 4 bad doctors, men who don’t hear me. The latest just the same as the rheumatology resident, giving me too much medicine. I told my oncologist I wanted to start with small dose of Gemzar. It is even in the protocol. I literally do NOT understand!</p><p>I am emotionally distraught today. I miss my cat Marilyn. I miss my Mom. I know God walks with me but today I don’t feel him. I can’t take the brutal disregard and abuse any more. I’m struggling. I should not have been given full dose of Gemzar. I can’t scream loud enough!</p><p>I am only on my second day of going to the outpatient clinic for daily IV antibiotics and my stomach is getting upset. I’m overwhelmed about trying to juggle daily outpatient visits with work.</p><p>After all this I still have to work. That is not right. I filed a grievance. ALL the other abuses at the teaching hospital have been ignored. They are supposed to call me Monday. If a doctor can get away with infusing too much chemotherapy then no patient is safe. </p><p>I need my mom!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXLfZJJXFNFVT4MxnDwpFwSijHVhd6fHzBVx-R-9s9-kgCeJfVcfTr-V5b-eCUYKf0VReqy7zBsk7c8vFW8DHG9UVlDR9OOeqRcxw23ZtX6capFh3tKFtTE07IrD064em0TH0bDtAzm_Wul4X2EUxcO7Cfotb-c9lHbzdBJv18Sjk6qPK_6ty0LIc85A/s960/IMG_0434.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-size-adjust: 100%;" width="300" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I gave a good confession, received Anointing of the sick and holy communion. I am in disbelief and my emotions are all over the place. My heart is broken, once again. My new treatment sanctuary is no longer safe. There was no reason to receive a high dose of Gemzar, yet it happened. None of it makes any sense to me. Why?</p><p>My last resort, Gemzar, had worked in the past but with serious consequences. I was hospitalized because of toxicity in 2020. It is ok to give Gemzar at a reduced dose when there is a history of toxicity, that is what I asked for and it was even noted in the plan to do Gemzar at a reduced dose. It is written in the medication protocols as to how to reduce the dose when there is a history of toxicity. Nobody listened. I am invisible. </p><p>I wrote it in messages and it was part of multiple discussions. I needed surgery on May 5, 2023 on my left knee to remove septic tissue. I have been on IV antibiotics since May 3, 2023 and will continue daily IV antibiotics for several weeks. My chemotherapy is on hold until cleared by infectious disease doctor. I literally do not understand why my doctors ignore my requests. Who would have been hurt if I were to have received the 25% or 50% of Gemzar? Not one person other than me if it didn't do any good. </p><p>My experience with Gemzar in September of 2020 showed a remarkable drop in CA125, which is why I had been asking for Gemzar since March of 2022 (after a year of untreated cancer growth). The only problem was the dosing and managing my severe adverse reactions to GSFs (which stimulate the bone marrow to produce WBCs). I ended up receiving a half dose of Granix on May 5, 2023 prior to my knee surgery. ON Saturday my spine was on fire and I was literally howling in pain. I needed morphine. We learned maximum GSF should be 25%, per me, the patient. I want to do more Gemzar at 25-50% because there was a significant drop in CA125 from my infusion on Aril 25, 2023. Maybe if the oncologists actually had cancer they would understood what it means to listen when the patient says no. (this blog post is updated because I felt so betrayed by my doctor that I had to vent. I still feel betrayed but felt it was important to scale down the emotion. How can I trust someone who lies to me?) This blog is my voice, my life and my experiences. When I write about my treatment it is the treatment facts and my experience/feelings related to that. I have a right to tell my story. I am still very hazy from the hospitalization. I don't want to drag anyone down I just want to live.</p><p>05/18/23 I am severely depressed because I have to wait another 6 weeks before I can go in a pool, lake or reservoir to swim. I'm allowed to use a SUP or kayak, but only if I can keep my left knee dry/sealed. Water is my heaven. I now have stage IV cancer (which was never even discussed with me, I read it in a report) and my oncologist is ruining even the last moments of my life. Does this happen to other cancer patients or am I the lucky one. I really am lost. I will hope to have a new oncologist but will have to move. I have no money to do that. I don't understand.</p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-30224105081188061862023-05-03T06:33:00.009-06:002023-05-10T01:01:49.031-06:00Sitting In ER Found Out Knee SepticI saw my oncologist on May 2, 2023 and had told him about fevers. Later in evening my blurry vision was getting worse. AFter 6 or 7 hours in the ER I was transferred to a hospital for IV antibiotic MY ANC has dropped to a dangerous level. During the ER visit my left knee doubled in size. I mistakenly thought it was an arthritic flare. It was a septic knee, had surgery for infection on May 5, 2023. This has been very trying.

I don't even know what that will entail. I can barely see what I am typing. I will go to the ER if symptoms get worse but I did not deserve any of this.</b></span></p><p>This is why I am upset. I cannot work very easily while on Gemzar, obviously because my labs are in a poor state and the side effects have taken a huge toll on me with just one treatment. My previous gynonc will never be held accountable, not will the radiology resident. I did NOT deserve to be punished by my previous gynonc for complaining about their error that effected my life expectancy! </p><p>I am exhausted. </p><h1 class="header" style="box-sizing: border-box;

Steady and regular increases in my CA125 during 2021 noted but no additional scans were ordered. I was having bladder pain. No UTIs. So here I am today again not being heard. My depression is over the top. It's my record. I recently was criticized for needing too much control. Well I need control over scheduling so that I can work. I have intense fear of medical mistakes...and there is just reason. My psychologist was recently on Fox31 because the oncology team has launched a virtual psychotherapy service to help patients cope with cancer. What I would give if my only challenge was cancer. My challenge is not just cancer.

The pharmacist had agreed to lower my Gemzar, but they actually didn’t. Somehow I am supposed to be calculating doses “per meter squared” which is why somehow it is my wrror?!!! No! I clearly stated I wanted less than what the oncologist was intending … 25% of standard dose was my original request. </p><p>She talked me into “650”. I was given “750”. </p><p>My intention was, because I needed a platelet transfusion in the past, to start LOW and work my way up. Sounds reasonable to me. </p><p>I had my Gemzar last Tuesday, I was sick over the weekend but fended off ongoing fevers with Tylenol. I literally cannot have the “plan” to be ER visits every week. I was avoiding the ER for many reasons but would have gone in if the Tylenol didn’t help. It is Extremely difficult to isolate the differences between sickness from neutropenia versus side effects of Gemzar. </p><p>My oncologist was patient and counselled me in a more specific way so that I make the righr choices but I literally am not going to agree to live in the ER. We can do better and I thought that my request to lower my Gemzar even further was a safe alternative. Appearently my opinion and voice are muted. I am extremely depressed. <span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"> </span></p><p>I think people in the oncology field assume patients expect ER visits. They don’t want to think about how to better plan avoiding ER visits, especially for patients like me. I am SINGLE! I HAVE TO WORK! It is NOT MY FAULT that I have had such crappy medical care!</p><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">I have a few good friends but literally no family who can be with me during this time for regular ER visits. </span><br></p><p>Why is my voice not heard? </p><p>My burden for just having a place to live is overwhelming me. My rent was raised by $111.00 per month. If I have no apartment I have nowhere to live. Can you imagine me couch surfing or living in my car or transitional housing during chemo?</p><p>Does the medical community want me to die? I love my NEW oncologist. I really do. I love the care team, but why??????? How many more little mistakes though? My bone marrow order said I have lung cancer. I was restaged to grade IVB without Any conversation. I hate the medical system. I guarantee you if I were married or had money this would not be happening. </p><p>I don’t want to do hospice in a nursing home, when it comes to that. In order to reveive HOME hospice I need a HOME. Can you imagine me finding a “roommate” at this point? </p><p>No Gemzar today, onviously, because all my coumts are low. I have antibiotics now if fever returns. My previous gynonc should be paying my rent. He’s the one that let my cancer spread for a year. My CA125 steadily rose every month for a year and there was a scan showing tumor growth. Then he punished me for complaining about that. I am going to publish my records. An attorney may not value my life, but at this point I have no choice. Letting recurrences go untreated while receiving REGULAR gynonc appointments is completely unacceptable. I need to not have to work right now.</p><p>Why aren’t doctors asked to atone for their sins.</p><p>I am starting to think that there is literally a demon attacking me.

It’s been a nerve-wracking two weeks. My oncologist will allow me to try Gemzar at a reduced dose. I’ll be receiving bevacizumab during some of the treatment cycles. I pray I get through just one and see a big drop in my CA125.</p><p>I’m disappointed that my voice regarding PARP inhibitors was ignored. My bone marrow is very weak, but praise God there is no sign of MDS or chemo-induced leukemia. If they would have listened and tried Gemzar last February I would have had a stronger bone marrow. If they wouldn’t have MISSED my recurrence we could have attacked my recurrence in 2021. Getting unstuck from the traumas has been hard, but progress is being made.....just in small doses. I need to keep my eyes on God (this last sentence added after confession Sunday before Mass.)</p><p>I had a melt-down yesterday because I’m already overwhelmed with too many appointments, a surprise appointment yesterday and realizing I can’t work and do these treatments. I don’t know how this will work.</p><p>I’m receiving EMDR treatments, just getting started. Yesterday I was receiving EMDR while processing the trauma of my mom’s death in 2013. There was not only trauma from her sudden loss but of course family stuff. It’s common, I think, for families to have differences when a central figure dies. All these things together are overwhelming. I wish healthcare providers better understood PTSD. The entire healthcare system is in a state of trauma. It’s very sad. </p><p>There are rays of sunshine that peak through the clouds but it’s not looking good right now.</p><p>The elephant in the room is my life and I’m trying to sustain myself as I attempt Gemzar. The only other time I received Gemzar I ended up very sick in the hospital, and required a platelet transfusion.</p><p>I will be so happy if it works. But if I end up in the hospital without a significant drop in my CA125 we may need to stop. I don’t know.</p><p>I start Gemzar next week. </p><p>Peace,</p><p>Denise</p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-37214844571098537552023-04-15T12:04:00.003-06:002023-04-24T01:23:00.680-06:00Restaged<p><span class="s1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; text-size-adjust: auto;">I</span><span class="s1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; font-size: 19px; text-size-adjust: auto;"> saw it in writing, I’m officially downgraded to stage IVB.

Feeling unsure but placing all of this in God’s hands. We are in Lent and my inner joy is growing! I’ve been coping with ovarian cancer for over a decade and am very blessed to have been granted this time. I am needed right now by someone and am grateful to God that I can be helpful. Financial stress is huge right now but it’s not eliminating my joy. I still have an apartment, so I’m happy. </p><p>I had to take a break from Lynparza due to neutropenia and anemia. My CA125 creeped up a little and I have more pain. I’m now on a modified dosing schedule and pray I can maintain myself with that. I love my new oncologist.</p><p>My prior adverse reaction to a bone marrow stimulant has made me very leary of it’s use but appearantly you can have doses of it when prescribed oral treatments, you just need to hold oral meds on the day of the injection. So intervention with gsf is reserved for emergency only as it caused my RA to flare badly, I don’t know why. Sigh. </p><p>Missing my Marilyn so much! Home feels empty without her. Thank you for listening. </p><p>Love,</p><p>Denise</p><p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=13AAWtS2eZr1Xjoqb6y3ZmSqzBNx825wF" width="300" height="300"><br></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-43758843774297633332023-02-14T09:04:00.001-07:002023-02-14T09:04:08.446-07:00<p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1VqF6P7-eINvoPZf1wmx0ben48v3ssB7d" width="300" height="300" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-65913010263972110042023-01-27T22:53:00.001-07:002023-01-27T22:53:03.704-07:00Missing My Marilyn<p>I cry when I come home, missing my Marilyn. Thank you Lord for the precious moments offered from you to me and my kitty. Let us also pray for the soul of Tyre Nichols and for his grieving family.

My cat precious Marilyn, sweet Marilyn Monrovia, was laid to rest on December 26, 2022. Please say prayers for her sweet feline soul. She had kidney disease and was ready to go. 💔💔💔 She is no longer suffering. </p><p>Marilyn, who will forever be part of my eternity, had been with me since 2012, after adopting her at age 5. We were meant to be together. I loved her deeply, she listened to me and comforted me throughout my cancer battles and personal struggles. Jesus sent us to each other. I adored her, loved caring for her, holding her, playing with her and simply admiring one of God’s most loving and beautiful creatures. She never abandoned me. </p><p>I hear the silence, it’s unbearable. Her purrs are gone. Her kisses are gone. Her heartbeat is gone. The warmth of her little body napping on my lap is gone. The little games she liked to play at night when it was time to sleep are no more. I’ll never see her waiting on the window sill for me to come home. When I open the door there is no sweet wonder at my feet. No more toys and chasing games in the apartment. No more loving watching her watch the birdies. No more playing with her on the balcony. No more seeing her happy when she ate her favorite treats. No more watching her watch big cats on tv. I feel empty inside. There is no life in my apartment now.</p><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">What IS forever are the precious memories in my heart and treasured photos and videos of her, as one of God’s unique creations. His precious Marilyn was given to me and I was honored to love her all these years. I will always love you Miss Marilyn ❤️💔❤️💔❤️💔❤️💔 Say hi to God for me. </span></p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1vW0qcfOZIEkLTdVc7TLE9gB2jgBwNk-k" alt="Christmas Day 2022 Watching a birdie" width="0" height="0" data-x="0" data-y="0" style="width: 304.960104px; height: 304.960104px;"><br></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-17575609551900825362022-12-22T17:04:00.001-07:002022-12-22T17:04:06.297-07:00Merry Christmas and Happy New Year<p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1aCUQgTDBr9tAmAdp-iGqFYYwnA-_iBjY" width="300" height="300" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334917150876334741.post-54803887928304488672022-12-12T11:16:00.001-07:002022-12-12T11:16:32.463-07:00Our Lady Of Guadalupe, Pray For Us<p><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1l84QBHsQBxy8HyDPT1WT8v-PCMnmHWy5" width="300" height="300" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"></p>Servivorgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12743865599886297295noreply@blogger.com0
