Still Waiting
I still haven't gotten a response from Victoria's Secret but I did want to comment on Melissa Etheridge. I saw her on Oprah too and was close to emailing Oprah!! How bogus of Melissa to scare all the breast cancer newbies about chemo. It's not that bad - every cycle there's a couple of days but its doable. And they make her a spokeswoman and she says she just laid around and smoked pot!!
I HAD to go to work, and cook and raise kids (they did clean the house) just like all of you and all my chemo friends at the cancer center (some being worse off than any of us with advanced lung or colon cancer).
I don't even feel like I was all that brave (scared of what it would be like everytime something was new like the first AC, first Taxol first Herceptin etc) We all did it and more. Newbies need the inspiration and hope and that it will be okay and that they will make it thru and live thru it and beyond it.
I just didn't mention it because it slipped my mind. Many of my friends (who do not have cancer) commented the same of Melissa and her babyish attitude. Oh well, nuf said.
Best regards,
Becky
