Juicing it

Today I am going to write down my own little recipe that is my morning green drink. I make this drink when I have all the ingredients and when I actually remember to do it! Oh, and this is probably obvious, but you need a juicer to make this.

Donna's Greens Drink

Use as many or as little of the following vegetables and fruit as you wish. I usually just use a handful of each.

Broccoli (half a head - cut up)

Carrots (as many or as little as you want)

Celery (3 stalks)

Cucumber (1 full)

Collard greens (3 leaves - cut up)

Kale (3 leaves cut up)

Spinach - (large handful)

Parsley - (large handful)

Ginger - (fresh, 1" or so, cut off skin)

Apple

Lemon juice 

I make sure all my ingredients are organic. I mix the more watery fruit or vegetables with the ones that aren't very watery. For example, I put some celery along with the kale when pressing it into the chute. Add more fruit if you want. This is just what I have found I like. I really enjoy it!

 

 

 

A call from the Cross :)

Since I have had good news, I won't get too upset at the doctor for making me wait over a week for the 'call'. It certainly has been a difficult time.

So, what she said is that there were no new findings from the CT scan in regards to the cancer spreading anywhere. Not in the brain, the liver or lungs. She said if I wanted to have a biopsy,  that would confirm that the mass on the rib was from the breast cancer, instead of it being from the endometrial cancer or maybe a new cancer. But, since it isn't really necessary, we both decided that I could just go on the drug letrozole instead. Along with this drug I will also be put on a 'bone builder' that will keep my bones from being destroyed. I will go and get these drugs from the hospital on Monday. :-) 

I am very glad all this waiting for phone calls is over with, now. I just knew that March would be a much better month than January or February!! It had to...it couldn't get worse than what I have just experienced!

Maybe now I can get on with regular day to day life and just work on myself, physically, mentally, artistically and spiritually.  These things I will be talking about in the blog entries to come.

Thanks for all the hugs and well wishes!
