Coming across this video today hit me hard. Didn't see that coming...anyone else experience the same thing? I am sooo blessed to still be here, I really am! I do not take life for granted, anymore. 🎗❤🎗

My original post from this morning:
😟😢😭😢 WOW! She told MY STORY, PERFECTLY! I am 5 yrs out from my last treatment. Ugh, this had me bawling! I am still tired all the time, just that exhausted feeling and my bones ache to the point I can't function at times, especially in the cold and those horrible days of constant rain. It's such an emotional rollercoaster when I look in the mirror , still. I guess, for the rest of my life here on earth, I'll have to fight against the negative feelings about myself. I KNOW I am blessed to still be here for my family and loved ones. I will NEVER take that for granted, I know how hard I had to fight to stay here. My children, now teenagers, still have their mother here to help guide them into adulthood, thank God!! I hope and pray to God I am here for another 20 years, but I'd be happy for 10 years, honestly. ❤ 🎗🎗🎗

Today marks ONE FULL YEAR since my last chemotherapy. YAY! Has anyone else had the achy bone pain & tiredness side effect continue this long afterwards? I just don't feel myself anymore or even how I felt "pre-chemo". I just want to be ME again. I know I am getting older and I will experience achiness with arthritis popping up everywhere, it seems. I just want this deep ache to at least diminish over time...and it really doesn't seem to be happening. I am wondering if I have developed fibromyalgia from the chemo? I've recently read an article pertaining to this subject. I know my restless legs (and arms) syndrome has quadrupled since chemo, which I take medication to help me from wanting to crawl out of my skin.

Ugh...well, I am here and still kicking ♥ I guess that's all that matters. I am able to see my babies grow! Some of my friends, who've I made since being diagnosed Sept. 2013, haven't been so lucky. They are in my thoughts and prayers often!
