Chemo is awful!

I feel so blessed. I have two wonderful children, and I'm channeling my energy and my experience to help others.

I'm going to try to not eat any more dark chocolate, and that's going to be very, very hard for me because I'm completely addicted to dark chocolate.

If you come into my house, it looks like I went to Costco and Dylan's Candy and every candy store and I just have glass jars filled with chocolate. I just love chocolate.

I would encourage all women to get mammograms when their doctors tell them to.

In Sept of 2013 I was diagnosed as having an aggressive form of stage 2 endometrial cancer. I underwent a rigorous treatment program that included a radical hysterectomy followed with chemo and radiation therapy.

I am very grateful to have beaten my cancer, but it has been tough adjusting to my new normal.

Due to my genetic predisposition to certain cancers and having experienced the travails of my mom and grandmother in their battles against this awful disease, I wanted to use my platform to raise awareness and funds for crucial research for these below-the-belt cancers.

At the end of the day what matters most is that we can cut through the pettiness and drama when it really counts and support each other.
