Random Thoughts

-
This post consists of random thoughts that have come to my mind recently. I watched the show True Tori last night on my computer. I'm sure many people know the story of how Tori Spelling's husband cheated on her so now she has a show documenting them working on their marriage. I have so many thoughts on this subject. Her specific situation is just a little bit different. While no one deserves to be cheated on, you kind of have to take into account how their relationship started in the first place. Both Tori and her husband cheated on their previous spouses with each other so their relationship started with deception in the first place. I'm not sure how you can truly trust someone when you know their history of cheating. Did she really think she would be the exception? It is terrible though because like I said before; no one deserves to be cheated on. So, I kind of feel sorry for her.

I'm not sure why people cheat or why people become involved with people who are already involved in a relationship especially when there's children involved. Do they enjoy breaking up a family? How is it possible that they can feel good about themselves? And then how can the other person stay with the cheater after they admit to cheating on them as well?

Which brings me to Angelina Jolie. While she's doing a good thing by getting a mastectomy and possible further surgery to prevent cancer from growing in her body since she has the breast cancer gene, I just can't seem to admire her at all. Even if her current husband and his ex wife were having problems, it doesn't make it okay to start dating a married man. I know way too many people that have gone through this situation to feel any sympathy for cheaters. I can relate to Tori's feelings of confusion though. You want to make things work because you love them and you have children together but those feelings of trust are just gone. We deserve to be respected.

And now there's that new movie coming out called The Other Woman. It sounds like a funny movie because who doesn't want to see a cheater get what they deserve. I just wish people would think about what they're doing before they hurt someone they claim to love. And to all the "other women" out there, please think about what you're doing if you know the guy is involved with someone. They're already cheating on the mother of their children, do you really think they won't cheat on you too? Do you feel good about tearing a family apart? And don't forget he cheated on you too. Get some self respect and move on. You deserve better. Just like I deserve a man that puts his family first and offers me support during one of the most difficult times of my life. Someone that doesn't wish me gone but prays that I will live and stands by my side through everything.

My Adventures with Blood Thinners

About a year ago on September 12, 2012 I was diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism (PE) which is a blood clot in the lung. I had absolutely none of the classic symptoms of a PE. Instead my blood clot was found during one of my routine PET-CT scans to check on the progress of my cancer. For some reason people with cancer have a tendency to develop blood clots and I just happened to be one of the lucky ones that got one. I remember getting off the shuttle at the UCSF Parnassus campus and starting to walk to my sister’s flat when I noticed I had a voicemail. It was my nurse practitioner asking me to call her back because “it was kind of an emergency, but kind of not”. At this point I was really nervous thinking that maybe the cancer had spread instead of getting smaller so I called her back. She then told me that I had to go to the Emergency Room to start a regimen of blood thinners because I had a PE. My Lovenox Syringe So, I went to the ER where they gave me my first shot of Lo

Sticks and Stones

Recently I’ve learned a lot of things about people in my life and I am trying to make an effort to keep away from negativity. Negativity stresses me out and stress is the last thing I need. Someone recently tried to say that karma is the reason I have cancer which left me kind of in shock. I’ll admit I’m not perfect but I definitely don’t think I or anyone deserves cancer. If that’s the way karma worked then why do so many great people get sick and die young, while many evil ones get to live well into old age? The comment made me very upset at the time but now I realize that I have to make an effort not to let negativity like that get me down. Life is too short to worry about what other people think. Maybe they didn’t mean for it to sound the way it did or at least that’s what I’m hoping, but the lesson here is to really think about your words before they come out of your mouth. Another example is talking about how you know someone that died of cancer to someone that has cancer. Altho

Hair Stylings

Hair is important to many women and when you don’t have it; it can be pretty traumatic. I really miss having my long hair. I used to have long, curly hair. I could wear it curly or I could straighten it for a different look. People complimented me on my hair and it felt good. Unfortunately my hair fell out while I was on chemo. It fell out slowly. Every time I took a shower and combed my hair it would come out. It wasn’t noticeable but I didn’t want it to get to the point where I had bald spots and it was getting ridiculous trying to keep the shower from getting clogged so I decided to cut my hair short. I got a lovely short haircut from a friend but soon that wasn’t enough. Chemo was starting to make my head break out in a painful pimple-like rash and it hurt to wash my head. I then just had it shaved instead. I hated watching my hair fall out. Eventually I was bald without having to shave my head. The worst was when my eyebrows and eyelashes fell out. That really made me cry.
