If the video doesn't work for you, the basics of it is EXCITEMENT!!!
I received 2 GLOWING calls  yesterday.

First, I was asked to blog/vlog/shout out about the Moonshot 2020 project because they see my blog as an influential blog! What?!?! This little blog where I just ramble on about emotions, life with cancer, and so much more! Now it is MORE!!

Ok next AMAZING call...my awesome nurse telling me that Dr. H found a bone marrow transplant center in Dallas totally willing to do this bone marrow transplant...well, consider it! There are still 100 steps to be taken before anything happens, but this is a great first step! And Dallas is great being as my sister and sister-in-law both live around there along with a ton of friends! If I can't be in Austin, Dallas is really the next best place location wise for me!!

Do you guys know how exciting this is? New bone marrow could mean IF any cancer tried to come back, the new immune system would kill it off the way it should...I mean THIS could be great news in the cancer killer game too.

Panic attacks

I don't know if it's a good or bad thing I can now narrow down the fact I am having a panic attack in under 2 minutes.
I guess it is a good thing being as I understand why I feel like the whole world is closing in on me and I just want to crawl under anything and hide until the feeling goes away. 

These days, it seems anything slightly out of my normal day-to-day life can send me spiraling down the dark hole of panic... quick.

I know what this is from...my new twist in  what is happening with my health. I get them when any big change happens.

Unlike my first ever panic attacks, I can now rationalize with myself into understanding that what is happening is in fact an attack verses a few years thinking I was having a seizure...yes I have come along way!

I will continue to dig deeper into these panic attacks and work with my emotions.
