For the most part, I think my spirits have been pretty darn snappy – given that only weeks have passed since I found I was diagnosed with cancer, and Stage 3C to boot. I also think that I’ve been coping fairly well with having not one, not two, not three but four surgical procedures in the same amount of time. In addition to all of this, I think “I AM WOMAN” to finally being independent enough to strip my drain tube, empty and reactivate my drainage system, clean and re-bandage my catheter site, shower, dry (my hair, too) and dress with no assistance and contribute to some of the small tasks around the house (i.e. doing laundry, making the bed in the morning, loading and unloading the dishwasher, etc.).
