On Oct. 14 I was able to “ring the bell” compl On Oct. 14 I was able to “ring the bell” completing 25 radiation treatments. Radiation was the most “tolerable” physical part of the cancer treatment in terms of side effects. I was tired as my cell counts again were affected and dropped, and my skin turned red and eventually peeled like a sunburn, but this was very bearable in comparison to the chemotherapy treatments.

While I thought I’d have a 10-day break from appointments my iron had a different plan as it was very low. So I went in for 4 infusions of iron via my port to help boost my levels prior to having a complete hysterectomy last Thursday, Oct. 24.

Having the BRCA1 gene meant I had a high likelihood of developing ovarian cancer, thus the strong recommendation by my team of oncologists to move forward with a complete hysterectomy as soon as I could post-breast cancer treatment. Yesterday I received the call that the pathology of the tissue from the hysterectomy came back clear of any signs of cancer. 💓

Thank you for your constant love and support. We are getting through this one day at a time. More appointments, immunotherapy treatments, and another surgery to go, but on this last day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month I’m feeling an overwhelming sense of gratitude to currently be deemed cancer-free.
Last week I moved into the next phase of my cancer Last week I moved into the next phase of my cancer journey — radiation. Radiation is every day M-F for 5 weeks. Today was session 9 of 25. 16 more to go. So far the main side effect of the radiation has been fatigue. Skin irritation and redness are to be expected as well, but haven’t been an issue yet. (The candy corn cape is what I wear into radiation — made by cancer survivors.)

In addition to the radiation, every 3 weeks I receive immunotherapy (Keytruda) via IV which will continue through January. My body has been tolerating the Keytruda well and thankfully I haven’t had any side effects from it.

When I was diagnosed with this cancer I went through genetic testing which uncovered that I have the BRCA1 gene. Having BRCA1 means I’m at a high risk of developing ovarian cancer. To lower my risk of getting ovarian cancer, next month I’ll have a complete hysterectomy to remove my ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus. I’m mentally preparing myself for another surgery and recovery.

While the cancer is gone I’m still considered “in active treatment.” It’s all just a lot. A lot of appointments. A lot to process and work through emotionally. Yet one day — one appointment — at a time we’re getting through this. 🩷

🥂 Today I received the call we’ve been waitin 🥂 Today I received the call we’ve been waiting for — “you had a complete pathological response to the chemotherapy and there is no cancer present.” Enduring 6 months of chemo was awful, and completely worth it. 

I’m still very sore from surgery and haven’t looked at my incisions yet, but I’m trying to rest and let my body heal. ❤️‍🩹 

While I still have a journey ahead of me (6 more months of immunotherapy (Keytruda), radiation, reconstructive surgeries, likely a preventative hysterectomy, and years of monitoring by my oncology team) it’s a relief to know I’m currently cancer-free. One day at a time we’re getting through this. 

Thanks to my buddy @alharrison2 for bringing some delicious N/A bubbly to celebrate. 🍾 👯‍♀️

Thank you to our family + friends for your constant support — this has been such a long journey with many bad days, but today was a very good day.
