Video of my hardest day being a cancer patient.....

This starts with the day I realized I was loosing my hair. Then moves into when my friends met up with me at Anton's Salon in Bellevue. Then my sister and I went to Swedish for my second treatment. Katy Mowrer and Jenni Coles came to visit me at Swedish :)

Peri-lyn, my lovely boot camp instructed brought us taco soup and salad for dinner once we all got home. It was so great!!

Karley is in Hawaii with her basketball team. So the love in the sand is from her. Love it!!

Thank you all so very much for sharing this very emotional time with me. Thank you also for the amazing support, encouragement and love you ALL continue to give to me. And Dan, thank you for being the most wonderful husband a woman can have. I love you

Thank you all for loving me through it.....
