Back singing and playing Ukulele Christmas songs,

For the Salt Lake City Mission, Going soon to be seen Doctor soon, have you ever not want to go to the Doctors?

OMG are you kidding me??? As much as I like and respect and am filled with gratitude to have such a fine doctor, I don’t want to go every few months to see her. For me it is a trek. At least 2 hours or so each way. This month in particular I thought of how much I’d like to ditch this whole cancer thing and just live like a “normal” person. Currently getting faslodex shots monthly, so that’s another schlep. And the last 2 months of shots (one each check) have not gone well. Huge bruise once and last week a big red lesion that looks like a burn and hurts. And I’m pretty stoic about physical discomfort. But, to answer your question succinctly, yes. I don’t feel like going to a cancer center and having my life depend on a few drugs that cost almost 20k a month. Thank Heavens for my gold card insurance. On a more positive note, I am so impressed with you. Sharing your musical gifts with others who need a lift this holiday season. Holidays are a set up for depression and a sense of isolation if you don’t have that Hallmark kind of life. You go sing your heart out!!! Thank you on behalf of those who will have a bright moment because you are sharing your gifts!! Merry Christmas 🎄

Be happy to share, and as for shots , really do want to run from, the shot does me well, but just hate so much when nurses miss my vine.

Sends me up the wall.... hurts to know end.

I have always disliked going to the doctor! Now look at me. I have a special calendar to keep track. Damn cancer! Music is a healer! Wonderful you are back at the mic. Sing it sister.

You may want to look to see if the place you go has a app on your phone. The place That I go to has one, it's help me when I was under cancer drugs,

It's was very hard to keep up at first.

Autism app work for me, for time.

Places to go, I could time my self so each day,

All the time!!! I love that you play the Uke! I play too! Sadly I have a terrible singing voice lol My DH says it’s beautiful. He is the only one though.. My children cried whenever I sang to them as babies.

Good luck at the doctors xo
