This is My Life
I have been on the regimen of Abraxane/Avastin every other week for the last 2 months. Side effects occur about 2 or 3 days after infusion. They are tolerable but unpleasant and kind of stop my routine just from the fatigue alone. I sometimes say to myself is it worth it? If you talk to […]
Wigging it Again
Marti, my sister came to visit last week and she was so excited about my wigs. I wanted her to meet Victoria La Rosa at I’m Still Me so we trekked out to Warrenton about 40 minutes from Fairfax. She also loved Victoria for her warmth and caring and Marti got to try on wigs. […]
