Another interesting revelation today.  I was in pain this morning only 3 hours after my first dose of painkiller.  Then mom and I went to the gym.  I realized after about 15 minutes of cardio that my pain had decreased.  As I kept up with the cardio workout, the sunburn feeling pain all but disappeared!  I was able to put off taking anything else until 11 a.m., which was 5 hours after my dose of hydrocodone.  Then at 11 a.m., I was able to take Tylenol.  I took a nap, woke up around 3:30 p.m. and then took another hydrocodone.  I'm good until bedtime.  Now I'm debating on whether to take 1 or 2 for the night.  Either way, I've decreased my daily dose.  Answer to prayer!!
About this blog
I was diagnosed with breast cancer on June 11, 2010.  As a result of my treatment, I have lymphedema in my left arm. I draw my strength from the Lord, as well as my family's Scots-Irish heritage.  Our Graham's were a tough and scrappy bunch of fighters on the Scottish/English border.   They came to America and continued to fight when necessary: in the American Revolution; the Civil War; and my brother is a Captain in the U.S. Army.   My ancestors settled this country against all odds. My great-grandmothers on both sides of the family were pioneer women who settled the West.  Along with that heritage, and the full armor of God, I am walking the walk and fighting the good fight.
