Update time!

Been down with the flu/vid/whatever for 7 days now and finally feel like me again! It was a fever and headache for 4+ days followed by cough and heavy sleep. Overall it was yucky and I wouldn't recommend but I do feel like the stuff I take (ALOE 💪, oregano oil, D3/K2, off labels) helped shorten it and kept me out of places I don't want to be.

Pet scan wasn't great. Probably my worst ever. Which is frustrating because we shouldn't have continued on Enhertu because the last scan showed that it had probably stopped working. So I should have been on it maybe 6 months instead of 8, which seems to be the average anyways. There's some lucky people who are on it for years but I mainly see it failing after 5 months. Cancer is a tricky batch.

It's back in my beautiful liver, spread in my pelvic area (because of radiation?), and is climbing my spine like a horror movie that I can't turn off. I'm quite frustrated.

She also said "but your labs are GREAT!!" which made me start sobbing and I said "like that even matters!" to which she told me "it absolutely matters! Tho shows that your organs are all functioning properly and your body wants to keep fighting and healing, so keep doing that extra stuff that you're doing!" I can't believe I didn't put all of that together but she's totally right. Keep going my beautiful body ❤️

So that's it's for now. Avoid this cold and keep building your immune system.
I am healing,

I am vowing today to let people know when they made me feel good. Although my memory is TERRIBLE (seriously, did I have a childhood?) but I do remember some good times thanks to good people as an adult.

Why do we leave important things like this left unsaid? Or said too late? Ugh.

Going to spread some more joy,
Sierra

We are raised to be consumers.

But that's not who we really are. Consumerism promotes competition (keeping up with the Joneses) and hoarding. It makes us think we need to not only buy things we don't need but that we need to watch things that don't really matter.

The superbowl is the ultimate consumer event. The "best commercials" for things you don't need, 2 teams fighting for your entertainment, and performances that are for fun but somehow make people angry? Honestly if you're upset by a performance that's on you. If you're making everything political or a message, you need to take some deep breathes and center yourself. Life is way too short to walk around being offended.

We are meant to be a community who cares about each other, will help people in need, will share extra crops, food, clothes, etc. We're not meant to have $20k purses and live in $14mil houses while others sleep on the sidewalk but have been conditioned that this is normal and something to strive for, thanks to consumerism.

Unplug. Go meet your neighbors. Hug a tree. Get near water. Help yourself heal.

Sorry but I woke up to way too many people complaining about stuff that just doesn't matter. If you're offended by anything from a sporting event, that's on you.
Now I get to buckle up for a week of doctor appointments and scan results and family time. Things that do matter.

Protect your peace,
Sierra

The juggle is a struggle.

And I know it's my fault for some of the struggle because I want to be strong and healthy and "normal" so I act like everything is fine even when it's not. I don't want my kids to ever remember me being sick or weak so I carry on with volunteering, selling Girl Scout cookies, planning birthday parties even when I'm on crutches and the pain meds wore off.

But they also give me something much bigger to fight for and goals to be here for much farther down the road. Proms, boyfriends, heartache, performances, graduations, driving, jobs, colleges, moving out (😭), moving back in?, weddings, grand kids... these might not all happen but h would at least like to be around to see most of them.

Notice none of those goals involve losing weight, an expensive new purse, a fancy car, or top restaurants. Any life threatening disease will make you reexamine your priorities asap.

Hopefully getting that nap now,

Practicing gratitude every day 🙏

This past week has featured a new puppy (so cute but stressful), not great oncology news, a sick kid, a car accident, the first month of having to pay $2400 a month for health insurance, teenage girl drama, Girl Scout cookies sales to organize, multiple scheduling conflicts, an HOA meeting, a rental car, and a potential teachers strike any day now. Oh and non-stop Super Bowl events all over the city plus the exhausting and depressing news cycle.

But I am SO GRATEFUL that I'm not only here for all of it but I'm healthy enough to handle all of it. I didn't think about having to find care so often but lucky me he's adorable and pretty well-behaved 🥰 So I'm grateful for the puppy, too.

Remember "where your attention goes, your energy flows." You get more of what you focus on. So bring on the gratitude and get some more good stuff!

I'm grateful you're here.
Let's heal together,
Sierra

Do you notice the good?
Do you take the time to enjoy a flower or a rainbow or a beautiful tree? Do you appreciate when a friend calls or writes just to say hi? Do you say a big thank you when money shows up in your account, either expectedly or un?

The universe will reward you with more of what you're focusing on. So if you want more good stuff then FIND THE GOOD all around you. I have a sweet puppy sleeping on my lap and just safely dropped the kids off at school in my car that functions perfectly with my beautiful body that is healing and getting stronger every day. Plus I just sold 2 things on eBay so I can put that money towards my big COBRA payment later today and continue with my great health insurance from my teamsters job that left me 4 months ago. How awesome is all of that?!

Going to get bloodwork today (it will be great!) then meet with oncologist about potential Enhertu tomorrow. The last one made my lungs feel tight so I'm not sure how much longer we can be on this one but I'll keep going while they say it's safe.

Going to notice more good stuff,
Sierra

Of COURSE my dog loves shoes too 🥰

We're still in dog name limbo (current choices are Russell, Stevie, Cooper, Otto or Buster) but I was scheduling appointments and laughing at myself thinking "chemo is kind of a cute name?"

Any others you would add to this list?

Chemo brain in a different way,

He's 8 weeks 2 days old! The cutest little mini dachshund ever and we're so happy we waited for the right dog. Even my husband who was anti-puppy loves him!

Current name options are Ollie (short for Oliver), Steve (Steve Martin), Buster (they at Posey but I say Bluth), Brutus (we just rewatched Rome) or Chaos (the god of the void). We have sooo many girl names we loved (it was going to be Olive, Ivy or Daphne) but boy names are hard.

And the doctor was right - we all needed this dog ❤️

Back to napping with my newborn,
Sierra
