Like getting blood from a turnip!

In case you didn't know this Cancer 101 fact: once lymph nodes have been removed, you can never get blood drawn or have blood pressure taken from the affected arms...so that leaves...the leg!! Weird. Is this real life?

Just had my pre-chemo blood drawn...I'd better get used to it and get a pedicure!

And you might not know this since I don't think you had radiation, but once you've had a full dose of radiation (5 days a week for 6 weeks!), you can never have it in that same area again. Sure hope that demon don't come back to the one good lung I got left! And get those pedicures on a regular basis; remember, God thinks you have pretty feet.
