My life has taken a new path temporarily

This is the jewelry that I am sporting these days. Since I last posted about not feeling well I had emergency  surgery in October for a ruptured colon due to diverticulitis which also gave me a colostomy.
This teal ribbon however represents Ovarian Cancer. A couple days after surgery I found that the path report showed that hiding there behind my abscessed colon was this awful disease. 
I don't want to bore you with all of the details but after a short recuperation I began Chemo in November.  I have had 3 treatments at 3 week intervals and now am awaiting another surgery in February to reconnect my colon and have a hysterectomy. This is all backwards but what the two surgeons felt was the best way to go.  After that I will resume Chemo.
Many of you already know of most of this and I so appreciate all of your good wishes and prayers.

I have been wanting to resume blogging for some time but I just felt I needed to put all of this out there first.
I was losing my hair starting 2 weeks after my first treatment but now it has tapered off.  I cut it short and sometimes can get buy without wearing a hat.  Not when it is freezing out though! I am going to see about a wig soon.
 
My main problem I am dealing with as a side effect is the neuropathy in my hands and feet.  The tingling in my fingers makes it hard to feel the keys on the keyboard, pick up a needle or even hold the  hook to pull loops.  But I have been back to hooking lately.  I will post pic of what I have done soon.

Thanks to all of you bloggers who have been posting so regularly, I don't always comment but oh do I enjoy reading all that you show and tell!

I will see you soon.
