Candy's Story

Life My Pets I have a Shih-Tzu named Mogwai and 2 Shih-Pom puppies (absolutely adorable but tons of trouble). My Kids My children are the most important aspects of my life. Having them made me finally grow up, and find a sense of purpose in my life. They are both special needs children, and I only hope that I can give them the life they deserve. Me In 2004 I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, and I went through 4 months of chemo and 5 weeks of radiation. I guess I must be stronger than I thought, because I am still here (thank God). Now I am going to start my life over, and the first thing I am going to do is learn to ride a motorcycle. I live near Daytona Beach, so that works out great since Bike Week is down here. I think that song Tim McGraw has come out with about living like you were dying is absolutely right, and I intend to do so. Well, now it is October 2005, I have a clean bill of health, and I learned to ride the cycle. Here's to Biketoberfest!!! Jan 2006 - Still here and still healthy! My doc says if I'm still clear in June, the port comes out in July. I've got my fingers crossed on that one... Jan 2007 - Still kickin' and still cancer free! Oct 2007 - Biketoberfest is here in Daytona, and I get to go this year! I am still in ...Expand for more
remission, but I lost my uncle William last week to sarcoma. He fought bravely but this time the cancer won. :-( I have my CT's in a couple of weeks so I am a bit edgy right now, but hopefully things will come out well. August 2008 - 3 1/2 years and going strong! Been busy with the kids and the might-as-well-be hubby, who I have been with for 4 1/2 years. We are doing our part for the environment and buying a scooter (lol), which I will be the primary rider of. I tried the 800, but it is too much bike for me, so we decided to get the scooter instead. That way my son won't be afraid to ride on the back of it (of course, with me driving he should be scared anyway). Well here's to being healthy! Feb 2009 - oops haven't been on in a while, I've been busy with the kids. I went to my oncologist last week, and he says in July this year I will officially be classified as CURED! Finally I can finish getting back to me. It was hard for a while, always getting edgy when it's time for scans and hoping my kids don't notice, I have persevered and now I have been blessed with the good news. By the way I still ride the bike but also have a 150cc scooter that I like to putt around in when I go to help my Mom with her 150 birds ( she breeds them). Nov 2011 - still here :-)
