I was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer in December 2005. I spent 2006 getting surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In August 2007, my cancer came back. In February 2008, I learned the cancer had spread to my brain, liver, lungs, and bones. I live in Singapore with my husband Tony, daughter Josie (born Feb. 2003), and son Toby (born July 2005). Thanks to all of you who are still reading and commenting on my blog.

Funny Feet Update
That last post was from yesterday, although posted this morning. Since then, my feet have gotten much better. My podiatrist friend made a special house call and says one of the toes might just be an in-grown toenail. She also said that pus doesn't necessarily mean an infection. There's septic pus, which is due to a bacterial infection, and aseptic pus, which is not an infection. Since I have no other signs of infection, these toes might just be leaking aseptic fluid as my body tries to flush out unwanted germs. Now, why couldn't the doctors and nurses tell me all that?
I'm amazed that you have yet to make an "agony of de-feet" pun. Seems right up your alley.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear they're better.

I'm so glad they're better. I've been dreaming of little white toes.
