Guess who's "kinda" back?!? flyingheartsplz failcatplz flyingheartsplz

Well, slowly though, because I've been struggling to find energy :blushes: :heart:


Ohhhh, but I've been reading the comments you guys left me lately, and I wanted to step in a little bit, to let you all know that I'm much, much, mmmmmmuch better, thanks to all your good vibes and prayers, and that the doctors were able to remove my cancer fully, and because of that, plus the fact that it has all been caught super early, nothing spread and I did not need any aggressive treatments like chemotherapy or radiation, which are usually what is prescribed in these cases :grump:

So I did have the main surgery on August 13th (Friday 13th, everybody!!! hurrplz Am I brave, or am I brave?!? :eager:), and it went great, however a week later I had to undergo another surgery due to a small setback, which was unrelated to the cancer itself, it was just wound-related, but since then, I've been slowwwwwwwwly recovering, taking a gigantic (and totally abnormal evestareplz) break from social media, mostly because the nature of my surgery required for me to always be in an uncomfortable position, so replying to comments and writing in general has been a painful struggle!!! :crying: :faint: Not to mention my lack of energy, which is mostly due to not sleeping well because of the fact that I'm required to sleep on my back, and I still can't get used to that, so :giggle: yeah ... evestareplz



In other words, I got super OLD all of a sudden!!! :crying: :giggle: ;P

There is one more surgery necessary, which I'm hoping it will be the last one for a long time!!! :please: and it will take place on November 5th, so please keep the prayers coming, my dears!!! StareTearplz :eager:




My Mom though, she hasn't been well, and it doesn't look like she'll ever recover from whatever it is that she has, which is still partially unknown :( Things in Argentina are tough for sick people, in part due to the pandemic, in part due to bureaucrazy, in part due to cost and the fact that I can't do much from here :(

So, I'm living one day at a time, or I'm going to go crazy from the worry here [Emote] Facepalm

Hello my dears!!! FREE flying hearts Icon kissingplz FREE flying hearts Icon


Those who know me, know by now that I don't like to talk much about serious things, mostly because I prefer to keep things light and fluffy instead of heavy and deep, like my life seems to be at the moment, unfortunately :grump:


Having said that, there comes a time in which even the most cheerful people feel the need to share these things with those whom we love (and I LAV you guys SO MUCH!!! Cuteness Overload Meme ), and for two important reasons: Firstly because sharing certain things with others can somehow help someone who might be reading what we're writing and they might be going through a similar situation, and secondly because we're human and sometimes we need some love and support, especially when we're feeling not-so-jolly :heart:

The thing is that I've recently been diagnosed with a VERY early stage of breast cancer, thank God they were able to catch it at the earliest possible time, but I will still need to go through a very major surgery in August, which is pretty scary to me, but it needs to be done, since this ugly thing seems to be "mysteriously" running in my family :grump: So I am currently in chicken-mode!!! :crying:


But I wanted to share this here with all of you, because lots of you have breasts and if you don't have them yourself, you have loved ones who have them, and I'd like to take this opportunity to remind you all of the great importance of self-examination and regular doctor checkups!!! :heart: This all started because I felt a lump, so I immediately went to see my doctor. The lump I was feeling ended up being nothing, just a cyst, but thanks to discovering that lump during my own self-examination and going quickly to see the doctor, when they did the mammogram and ultrasound tests, they were able to find my cancer super early!!! :omfg: If it wasn't for that savior cyst I felt, perhaps I would have waited until next year to go get a mammogram, and by then, things would have gotten much worse :facepalm:


Now, I KNOW that I'm going to be ok because A/this has been caught right on time, B/I'm doing all I can to take as many precautions as possible to help prolong my life for as much as I possibly can, C/I'm in good hands, my doctors and surgeons are all very knowledgeable people and I trust them with my life, D/I feel supported in many ways, and that does help a lot when you're a cancer patient!!! :heart:

But like I mentioned on the title of this journal, I'm in need of good vibes, yes ... and that is because while I'm going through this unexpected (and frightening to me) personal journey, I have my Mom who is very ill in Argentina, my country of origin :( She's been in hospital for 15 days or so a few weeks ago, and now she's at her home, in like a "home hospitalization", because she's bedridden reallysadplz She's in very serious condition, and as you can imagine, I am unable to go see her, which breaks my heart and tortures my mind, thinking that there is a big chance that she may leave this world without receiving my hugs and kisses in person one last time sad daiz I'm pretty much heart-broken for her, to be honest :( :heart: We do video calls daily, sometimes multiple times a day when she has a little extra energy, but I see her fading away and it's a very painful situation!!! :( :heart: She doesn't know what I am going through, as it would be very cruel to put her through all that worry, but it pains me to think that perhaps she thinks I don't go see her because I don't love her enough or something like that :( :heart: So yeah, I'm dealing with the cruel feeling of guilt, since I am her only child and I can't be there in her time of need :heart: :heart: :heart:

So if you could spare a few good vibes and/or prayers for us, I would be super thankful to all of you!!! loveloveplz :heart: I strongly believe in the power of prayers, and how well they can reach people from all over the world!!! :la: :heart: And I understand that not everybody prays, so whatever good vibes you can send to my Mom and me would make a big difference in our lives, I'm sure!!! :love: :heart: So I thank you all from the bottom of my heart in advance!!! lainloveplz
