Wait...I have five more minutes!


"Welcome to Amanda's five minutes. Thanks for spending this time with me as we go through a series of treatments and surgeries to kick the butt of Breast Cancer...why 5 minutes? I always need five more minutes to clarify a conversation, to make my point, to drive to an appointment, to grocery shop. I live in that 5 minutes close call on being almost too late but almost always on time! Now, every next five minutes is the survival of my life. This is about a transformation of priorities, a journey of God meeting me in the middle, laughing as I go, and learning how to relax and get well. I just got a knock at the door, guess what my response was...Five more minutes!"

Surgery went well

Hi. I had my surgery to remove my ovaries on August 23rd. I am recovering okay from that. It's a little emotional probably because my body is adjusting but also because sometimes I feel like I keep getting knocked down... I get up and get knocked down.  Chemo, surgeries, more chemo...The moral of the story is I always get up.  Even though I feel like Rocky beat half to death sometimes, I'll be damned that this is going to take me down.

I just keep going back to God for the answers and the drive.

I'll write more later.

Xoxo
Amanda
