Too sexy for my hair: a cancer blog

I Can't Really Complain

I recently just started this blog as a form of emotional therapy for myself and I must say it has been one of the best outlets for me since I was diagnosed in November,2002. I think I was in denial of the seriousness of my cancer all the way through 2004. I think I was trying to shelter myself from the trauma, the truth. I won't go into detail now, but prior to my diagnoses I had been the victim of many traumatic experiences all ready.

I don't seek any pitty from others. I understand life is rough and it can always be worse than it is. I am fortunate enough to be an American and to have access to some of the best medical care in the world. At times I think of how different things would be for me if I was born in a third world country... Maybe I would have passed away by now?

I am also fortunate to have found the one true love of my life. I would do it over and over again for my husband Cary.

I just want to thank everyone who has been to my site and has left me encouraging words. Life is short, love those around you. Count your blessings. :)

Love and Peace,
Lori
