Sol Luna Energy Healing

Well guys I got the call. I am officially booked for surgery! 3 weeks from today I get the cancer removed! Along with 4, possibly more, lymph nodes. There is much more to this story and it will be shared in more upcoming posts, so make sure you have your notifications on! But for now I am happy to let you all know I am finally getting surgery and soon the cancer will be removed and I can move on to the next steps of healing.

June 24th I will go to nuclear medicine in the morning and be injected with dye. I go back in the afternoon for a scan. The reason I am getting this is I have 4 lymph nodes that have something going on. They were biopsied in Jan and came back negative for cancer, but apparently there is still a chance they are cancer. Surprise! Who knew that could still be a thing after coming back negative? This time they will test the whole lymph node instead of just a piece. Better safe than sorry right? The dye will light them up in the scan and they will be removed during surgery.

On June 25th I will go in for surgery to remove the cancer masses, as well as the abnormal lymph nodes.The lymph nodes will be biposied while I am under and if they do come back cancerous, they will remove more just to be safe. If not just the abnormal ones will be removed. My surgery is scheduled for 8am.

Im really hoping since its nuclear medicine I come out of this with super powers cause how cool would that be?!?! 😎 Thats how that works right? I mean something fun should come out of this!! Lol

So surgery is booked! Hoping for super powers to be activated and life will be good! Haha

Happy Thursday beautiful souls! What a great day to have a great day 😊

Not alot this journey is fun so you have to choose to stay positive, optimistic and find the fun or funny moments as you navigate your way through.

We have kept my granddaughters in the loop with everything along the way. It was important to me that they know what was happening so they could understand too. Days I was with them when I didnt feel well, they went out of their way to take care of me. Bringing me snacks, getting me blankets when I get the chills really bad and Marley's favorite, making me iced coffee lol Nothing like a strong iced coffee to keep you going 😆 Emma also on numerous occasions got me set up so well with snacks and warm blankets because she wanted to make sure I was too content and comfy to go home and I would sleep at their house. And yes she did succeed. How do you say no to that? Lol They are the absolute best, most loving little humans that I know and I love how great they have been throughout this journey as well.

They have been apart of it all, including cutting my hair off to shave my head. One day as the were both doing their long, beautiful hair, they jokingly asked if I wanted my hair done too. Of course I said absolutely! Lol They decided they would put a clip into my "hair". Somehow, someway those 2 little buggers got the clip to stay!! I still cant figure out how, but they did! And boy did they find themselves incredibly funny!! Not going to lie, they made me laugh pretty hard about it too hahaha So today I show you my "hairdo' by my granddaughters 😂

June is Cancer Survivor Month, and as I reflect on the past few months, I realize cancer has taught me lessons I never wanted to learn—but lessons I’ll carry with me forever.

I’ve endured chemotherapy, immunotherapy, other needed meds, countless appointments, countless tests, tears, fear, uncertainty, and more moments of questioning than I can count.

But I’ve also experienced incredible love, unwavering support, unexpected joy, deeper gratitude, moments of complete clarity and a renewed appreciation for this beautiful, messy life.

Cancer changed me. It changed how I see time, relationships, priorities, and myself.

And while I would never willingly choose this journey, I am thankful for every lesson it taught me along the way.

To all the warriors out there that have endured cancer, are currently going through it or have beat it, I see you. I admire you. I send love and healing to you 🩷

❤️ If you’ve faced a difficult season in your life, what’s one lesson it taught you?

This week's posts are going to be a little different. Alot of what I share is not great news. But that is what going through cancer is like. Its not really fun or positive most the time. But your attitude about it can be. Now not to say I haven't had many days of anger or sadness. And Ive allowed myself to feel them. But overall I have tried to remain optimistic about my journey. So this week I would like to share good news, funny stories and where I am at.

When the lump was originally found I was told I had to do 5 months of chemo. That was the "standard". I hadn't even got my officially diagnosis yet so I thought that was very interesting. It was advised to me to do weekly chemo for 3 months, then bi-weekly chemo for 2 months. I have made the decision to not do the next cycle of chemo. The next cycle is a preventive chemo in case it has spread anywhere else (preventative is my word not the dr's). I do weekly bloodwork & have had multiple ct and mri's. There has been no indication of it spreading. So yay good news for me!!

My body has not been enjoying chemo so it is not worth it to me to continue to put poison into my body, have more side effects and potential long term permanent side effects. So although it has been recommended by my doctors to keep doing it, I have decided not too. A decision that my oncologist supported as that is what I wanted. I am lucky to have her and want to give a shout out to Dr Zarkovic for being an amazing, supportive doctor. I am very grateful for her 🩷

I feel a big part of me feeling better right now is knowing I don't have to endure anymore injections and anymore chemo. I am sure my body is going to feel so much better and feel so much happier too!

So my good news today is the cancer hasnt spread and no more chemo!! Hell yes!! Finally some positive news on this journey!

Although there is so much more to my story, I want to jump ahead to present time. There were some big things that happened last week so I want to share them all with you!
The first one is last week I took my last grastofil injection! I have had to inject myself twice a week for the last 4 weeks. Grastofil is used to treat neutropenia, a condition where the body makes too few neutraphils. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell important to the body's fight against infection.
As I had posted previously my neutraphils dropped dangerously low for awhile and I had to quarantine myself in my house to avoid any type of germs or sickness for about a week. A common cold could have been detrimental due to my compromised immune system. They did come back up, but needed to be boosted to stay up. So every Saturday and Monday I got to inject myself. The injections did come with some side effects as well. Mine were soreness and stinging in the injection site, sore muscles, bruising easier and more fatigue. Like I didn't have enough fatigue already lol Sometimes naps are 4-5 hours long 🙈😂
BUT I dont have to take them anymore so one less thing I am putting into my body and I couldn't be happier!!
More to come so stay tuned!.......

For those that are offended by my posts and my choices, old me would have apologized. New me is here to send you a different message. If you are offended by what I am sharing, my responses or anything else, I ask you keep those to yourself. This journey is hard enough without sh*tty messages or comments made about what I am doing wrong. If there is one thing I have learned recently is I will be putting ME first. Some of you arent used to that, and it bothers and offends you. That is yours to sort out. I will continue to put myself and my health first because I have no other choice. If that continues to bother or offend you, feel free to scroll past my posts. This is not something I will apologize for. I have had to overcome alot of hard things in my life, but this battle is the hardest. Changing, growing and healing are my main focus.

For those that want to make my journey about them, send unsupportive messages, talk about the things I am doing wrong, or telling me I am choosing to be sick and wanting to die because I wont do things their way, I have no space for that energy. And yes, all of these things have happened to me over the last couple of months. Rude or sh*tty comments and/or messages will be deleted, responded to bluntly or you will simply be blocked. This applies to my personal and professional life.

For those that continue to send love and support me on my journey, I thank you 🫶 For those my journey also effects, I want to recognize that its also hard for you. I am also sorry it effects you as well. I know it's not easy. Sending hugs your way 🫂 The love and support I have received is more than I could have ever expected. Thank you all for that. It truly does get me through the hard days ❤️
A reminder to be kind......or be quiet ✌️😊

When you go through cancer, everything changes. And so do people around you. Some people want to help, some people dont know what to say, some people want to focus on how this effects them and alot of people have an opinion on what you should do.

We appreciate the offers of help. But please know if we dont accept those offers it isnt about you. At the time we maybe just dont need or want it. It isnt meant to be offensive. And if we dont always respond, we are tired. We rest & sleep alot. And although we always appreciate people checking in, sometimes its alot to respond to them all right away. Don't know what to say? A simple "Hey I dont know what to say, just wanted to reach out and say Im thinking of you". We appreciate those and its ok if you don't know what to say. It sucks. We get it.

And opinions. Thank you for voicing them. We know it comes from a place of love and concern. But understand we will make decisions based off of what we feel is best for us. You may not agree, and that is ok. But it is our body, our life and our decision. Every decision we make now can literally make the difference in our life. That may sound dramatic to some of you, but its a harsh reality for us. Everything you put in your body, choose to do (or not do), every treatment (or refusing treatment), can make a difference. Making decisions and 'hoping for the best' can make the decision on our health getting better or so much worse. Im here to tell you, we don't take decisions lightly. So if you dont agree with them, thats ok. But please be respectful of them. You dont understand until you have to make life altering decisions on a regular basis.

As I sit here deciding on the next decision & trying hard to figure out what is best, while also trying to differentiate what my head & my body want, and as I share that journey, please be respectful of what I decide. I always welcome opinions and advice, but if you disagree with my decisions please do so silently. I can assure you I have heavily weighed all the options and I am doing what I feel is best at this time and hoping for the best possible outcome.

Out of all of the side effects (and there have been alot!), I think the one that probably was the most upsetting was the one I had with my throat. I was talking on the phone & I hung up to go eat. About 5 minutes later, my cat jumped on the counter. I went to yell at her to get down, but no real sound came out. I tried to clear my throat, but couldnt. Being unable to clear your throat is the weirdest feeling ever. I tried to talk again, but still the same. I panicked. Texted my friend who I was just talking too and told him. He said "How Cara?? I was literally just talking to you!". I didnt know. It was scary. Its like when you have laryngitis and you can barely whisper. And clearing my throat wasnt a thing anymore. The next day I woke up & tried again. Same thing. A strained whisper was all I could get out. The whole day it was the same. No voice, no clearing my throat. I tried to focus on other things, but the fear remained. What if it didnt come back? What if the cancer spread?
The following day I called Allan Blair. I tried to explain. The very concerned admin said she would have my nurse call me back. When she did she explained it was likely a side effect. The following day it started to come back. About 3 days in total without my voice & being unable to clear my throat. I panicked the entire time. Now Im sure you are thinking '3days of Cara not talking? Thats not that bad' And thats fair. I do talk ALOT 😂 But I did want my voice back lol When I met with my oncologist next I told her about this. She told me it was a side effect from chemo. It was effecting my vocal cords. I will be completely honest with you, at that point I almost pulled the plug on chemo. How terrifying! Luckily I only lost my voice the once. The not clearing my throat happened twice. Equally scary & annoying each time. So of all the side effects I have gone through, this was the one that scared me the most. It may seem silly, but the thought of not being able to normally speak again or not being able to clear my throat again was very scary. Sometime side effects come & go. Others are permanent. I am very grateful that this one didnt stay

I had put this in a prior post, but some of you may not have seen it so I just wanted to clear something up. When I was first diagnosed with breast cancer, I needed time to process what was happening and what my body was going through. I also wasnt sure I wanted to share something so personal. After taking time to deal with my diagnosis and start treatments I did decide to start sharing.

My posts are taking you back to the beginning of my cancer journey. I wanted to clarify as I know there has been some confusion. I wanted to take you through it all, the ups and the downs. So although I truly appreciate those that have reached out thinking this week was a rough week, this was earlier in my journey. I apologize for any confusion and will try to be more clear going forward.

I did have a couple of rough days last week, but this week was much better! Less side effects this week, so it has been nice.

Thanks for caring and commenting and/or checking in. I appreciate you all 🩷 As always, I am an open book so feel free to ask any questions you have. More to the journey coming soon!
