I might be on the other side of 45 but my brain and my heart are still 18, guys. #notaregularmom #permanentjewelry #stclairsvilleohio #boutique #permanentbracelet

Tomorrow morning it starts all over again. I feel overwhelmed and emotional. But I’ve got so much love behind me, and I’m going to get through this. I will never be able to watch this and not cry. I will watch it when times get hard to help me through. To my son and his teammates and their mothers, I’ll treasure this memory always. Thank you. Now, let’s kick cancer’s ass for the second and FINAL time. #breastcancer #cancersurvivor #breastcancerawarenessmonth #shadysidetigers

At this point I’ll just walk away and avoid you from now on. But soon i feel like I’ll get to my breaking point and my reaponse won’t be pretty. Don’t blame a cancer patient for causing their cancer. At any point, but ESPECIALLY when they’ve just told you. None of my actual oncologists (all of whom are incredibly intelligent) think my cancer has ANYTHING to do with my diet. So, take your youtube degree and move along with your advice, k thanks bye! #recurrentcancer #cancer #breastcancer #cancerpatient

I’ve heard this song prob 100x in my life. For some reason this version opened the floodgates. A reminder to never take the simple moments in life for granted. Especially when things get hard. Watching a movie cuddled in bed with my husband, laughing with my boys over a story they tell after school, listening to good music in the car that hits just right, watching my dog roll in the grass, in the sunshine, just because she’s happy, a long hug from a best friend. This is the good stuff. Be sure to stop and take it all in, friends. My tears are joyful ones. Because if life ended for me tomorrow? Phew! I’ve been so blessed with a good one! Don’t wait until things get tough to appreciate the good stuff. 💗

Well, well, well, Cancer. Didn’t think we’d be dueling again so soon. Just so you know: myself, my friends and family? We ain’t scared. In fact, we LAUGH at you. Because we know I’M gonna win again, and this time, for GOOD. Better start packing those bags.

I won’t spend today wishing I accomplished more. Because would you just look at what I DID accomplish? Life won’t stop for me in 2025 either. Cancer be damned! I’m coming for you, 2025! #cancer #breastcancer #SmallBusiness #boutique #permanentjewelry

Am I scared? For sure. More frustrated than anything that I have to hit “pause” again on a life that I’ve worked hard to really love and enjoy. But I’ll get through it and hopefully be able to move on from this nightmare once and for all. #breastcancer #cancersucks #chemotherapy

Yeahhhh. Reconstruction after a double mastectomy is not even CLOSE to being the same. But also, I didnt choose this. #breastcancer #doublemastectomy
