Monatsarchiv:Mai 2018

Radiation 10/28 ✔️ I noticed little blisters after the last radiation, but due to the public holiday, my breast had a day off and now they are gone. I am glad my skin has the weekend to recover. I am being called in at 8:45am and leaving the radiation center at 8:55am – they actually […]

Nutrician – despite a German documentary suggesting that nutrition can kill cancer, I still think everyone needs to find a way to lead a happy life in whichever way works best and I think that there certainly is a benefit to eat healthy, whether you have cancer or not, but I also think that it […]

A good night’s sleep makes a whole difference, but cannot fix anything…. I am still sensitive and emotional, when I wake up and that is totally ok. Reflecting what I have been through and what lays ahead of me, it is a long journey and I am happy that I passed the half way mark […]

Generally my kids are good sleepers, but what happened last night?!? Mia is wide awake at 3:30, first screaming and then playing nicely in my bed while constantly asking for my attention. She is really cute and adorable, but aaaahhh….. I am soooo tired! It might be the tiredness, but reality hits me hard today…. […]

What a day…. I hardly have time to breath and have to leave the house without a coffee/ breakfast…. radiation, music therapy, alternative practitioner and Kindergarten. I drop off Leo at a birthday party and get ready for the Distribution and Sales Team Meeting dinner with my colleagues from Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Is it […]

The naked truth – 2 days vs 3 months past my last chemo…. time really flies, I have the hopefully last operation in the books, 6/28 radiation sessions done and it is summer in the city! Mia will be two next Monday and it only seems like yesterday she turned one…. The next week will […]

What a nightmare – Leo wakes at least ten times screaming and shouting! My poor boy is exhausted and so am I. I hit the backyard fleamarkets in Nippes, while Markus and the kids go to the playground. Today anyone with a backyard can register and sell whatever they no long need in there. I […]

I am officially „severely disabled“ – what?!? Why?!? Well, it proves my point again…. you don’t see cancer, I don’t look ill – even get a lot of compliments regarding my hairstyle…. but life is not the same and it will never be the same again! What do I need this ID for? I know […]

I use the baby brush for a stylish radiation wave – thanks, Elisa for the tip! This sounds funny, but my new hair can really hurt a bit, when it points the wrong way… my scalp is somehow more sensitive! Radiation 5/28 in the books! Apart from fatigue, I am fine and my skin is […]

Today is a good day – busy, I still have a tummy ache, but good and I even manage to mediate before I cycle to radiation! It is nice to ride my bike, but choosing the wrong route results in me just being spot on time for my radiation slot at 8:50 sharp 😉 Anything […]
