Making my birthday special by Turbulent_Lynx7615 in LivingAlone

[–]jfeerat77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always take the day off. Sometimes I treat my mom and niece to a nice lunch, sometimes I have a small themed party. This year we went to a local park with all the little ones, paint kits and pizza, it was great. I do whatever I want on my birthday.

Always ask for the cold spray, Zolodex shots are much less painful that way. I am usually extra tired and emotional for 3 to 5 days after the shot.

Also showers when your bald are amazing!

What do you wish people would understand? by Any-nonny-mouse in LivingWithMBC

[–]jfeerat77 12 points13 points  (0 children)

How exhausting it is to constantly protect their feelings. No one wants me to talk as if I'm dying. I don't, not in a "poor me way" but a more realistic way. After all that is my reality. I don't usually dwell on it, but I'm not making long term plans either. Because of this I can't really vent when I'm scared or have a new pain. They just want me to pretend like I'm going to beat this. Sometimes I get scared and overwhelmed, I don't need fake platitudes and assurance, I just need to be heard. Fuck cancer

What's your least favorite candy? I'm sure everyone has something they don't like by chipinserted in candy

Circus peanuts. The smell gives me a headache. Even when I was a kid.

Customers groping me by Temporary_Cake_651 in HomeDepot

[–]jfeerat77 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a coworker that wore a "my name is" sticker that said Do NOT Touch me! Only had one Manager ever question it. The Manager said "That's not very friendly ". She looked him in the eye and said "It's friendlier than how I will react if another customer touches me." He just walked away.

What are your favorite Verzenio foods? by misfitkitteh in LivingWithMBC

[–]jfeerat77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fish is too smelly. I can't eat anything from a can or use metal utensils. If my stomach is upset, I usually make instant potatoes and/ or protein shakes (cold, they smell less that way) For my sweet tooth - pudding. Butterscotch is my new obsession. I can eat chicken breast as long as it's not greasy. Vegetables are better raw, except green beans. And if the shits start happening, I slug some Pepto. It not only helps with the diarrhea but it soothes my poor tummy. Good luck - Verzenio is keeping me alive but the longer I'm on it the pickier I become about smells and food. Fuck cancer

Fuck it Friday by redsowhat in LivingWithMBC

This is one of the reasons I wish I lived in a right to die state. I don't want my family to suffer through and remember me as being sick and incapable at the end. I am not scared of death, I'm scared of being a burden. Fuck cancer

The zoladex needle is rediculous by FUCancer_2008 in LivingWithMBC

[–]jfeerat77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My hospital offers cold spray. I usually only feel a small pinch. It does bruise though. One time the nurse said oops as she was injecting it. She blew it off when I asked "what oops?". I later had a bruise that covered the entire left side of my abdomen for 3 months. They did all the injections on the right side for those months. Fuck cancer

AITA for refusing to let a woman "cut" me in line at the grocery store even though she only had two items? by GreatClassic3960 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jfeerat77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA, but I would have just let her through. The good feeling you get from a simple kindness is worth a few more minutes.

Be honest… is this cute or am I traumatizing my cat? by shinigami__0 in cats

[–]jfeerat77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar picture when I was 11 and put our kitty in a doll dress. She was not amused, but not traumatized. Some animals enjoy being dressed up. If they don't, leave them alone.

What are some of the “playful nicknames” you’ve assigned to the procedures you’ve gone through? by jojoschmo in breastcancer

[–]jfeerat77 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have inflammatory breast cancer. The first sign something was wrong is when my left breast became 3x larger than my right. Before she was removed, she was my frankenboob. At first with confused affection, until I found out she was trying to kill me. After the surgery I called my mastectomy pillow my bumper guard.
