Doing the work to get my Oregon massage license! Today's agenda was Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED, and First Aid with and our fabulous instructor Chloe at . Great class and a much appreciated refresher! Nice to have the book and the masks they sent us home with to keep in my office First Aid kit, just in case! (I also might have enjoyed the baby mannequin a bit much, missing the time when I was a regular childcare provider for my nieces when they were young! 🤱🤣) I was happy to learn about the free American Red Cross First Aid App with easy to access instructions for tons of scenarios - everyone should have it on their phone! While you're at it, add the Poison Control Center # to your contacts, so you can use it quickly if you need to.

Mobile massage location today in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mountains 🌄 Partnered with my friend Wendy (Misty Mountain Massage) to serve a family and their friends for the day. I love what I do! I am exclusively mobile at this time, so reach out if you'd like me to come to you!

An update on my cancer recovery:
I had three additional surgeries a month ago and am recovering now from that. My biggest issues at this time are fatigue and mobility/range of motion, both of which are still holding me back from massage. I hope to get back to it in a couple of months, but please know that I am thinking of you all and hoping you are staying healthy and well. Good news, I am fully vaccinated!

Although I had taken a big break from massage due to the pandemic, I was just coming back on-board for at least outdoor massage when I was hit with a breast cancer diagnosis in August. I had three surgeries at once in September, am currently undergoing chemo (just finished treatment 4 of 12 yesterday in my skeleton leggings, pictured) and will follow up with 2 more surgeries in February-March.

I am doing ok. It was stage one and they got it all. Chemo is a precaution due to the type of cancer it was (ER/PR+, HER2+, grade 3, intrusive ductile). However, I am not working during this time as I am immuno-suppressed / at risk. I am resting, learning more to add to my repertoire (cupping, scar tissue work, and lymphadema massage), and doing a lot of non-fiction reading for self-improvment and mental improvement. Laying around binging Netflix and playing games was only cool for about a week or so 😂

I look forward to getting back to work with my clients in the spring. Meanwhile, I hope you all are staying healthy and safe and doing as much self-care as you can fit in!
