Ellen:
I have my up days and down days. I have some days that I am still tired that I need to take a nap but mostly I have good days. I’ve been able to travel. In fact I have traveled all through my chemo and after chemo. I have taken some major trips. About a month after my chemo, I took a 10-day trip back to New England and to my summer camp reunion in Maine and it required me to be around a lot of people with a wig in hot summer weather and I decided I wasn’t going to wear the wig the whole time.
People kept asking me why my hair looked so good in this steamy weather and I finally got tired of just telling people so I just kind of whipped the wig off and told people, “Because it’s not mine.” And I think that was a shock to some people but it also opened up the conversation so I could talk about my ovarian cancer and what I had been through and my chemo and how I am doing and opened me up to a whole lot, lot more people who keep in touch with me want to know how I am doing. So it’s been a great experience. It’s been more positive than negative, from even before ending the chemo till now.
