Just a mom with something to share !

Good Evening... Blown away that my first blog post was read almost 800 times... I apologize for not posting last night as promised. I had a dental visit that lasted 4 hours long. I had just begun to fix my teeth when the stupid cancer struck again at my house so I am just trying to get caught back up. I had read sometime in 2006 that metal fillings were not good and contained mercury. Let me tell you my mouth was full of metal, so prior to Rachel getting sick I was on a mission to have them removed and switched to white or composite resin. On this journey of tooth repair I had to stop because at that time Rachel's health and well being was my main focus. Besides that the little money we had left over after Rachel medical bills couldn't be wasted on me or my teeth. That was silly...or was I silly for not trying to continue to take care of me?? Little did I know way back in 2006 when I was reading about the Mercury in my fillings, these metal fillings were taking my Thyroid...

Where to begin !! I would first like to start by saying I am just a mom with 2 kids that have had cancer and I have recently had to battle it myself. . I wanted to share my past journey as well as my future plan. I am not a blogger and I have never taken the time to express my own thoughts like this before. But here I go, my past journey started in the first half of 2007 . My daughter Rachel who was 12 years old at the time had been ill. Test after test and doctor appointment after doctors appointment only to find out she had Hodgkin's Lymphoma. As my blog continues I will go into deeper details as to how we discovered it and why. Zip ahead 5 years to 2012 my daughter is just found to be 5 years clean of this terrible disease and my son Nathan was diagnosed with Brain Cancer he was 13 years old. As my blog continues I will go into deeper details as how we discovered his and why. Then guess what like clockwork fast forward 5 years and poof February of 2017 I was diagnosed...
