Abs are still sore from yesterday, but made it through the class!!!!! Never imagined a few weeks ago I would be doing back to back exercise classes when walking up the stairs was such a challenge and leaving the house only happened if there was a Texans game, lol smile emoticon Thanks again to Joy Yoga for having us and my support system for motivating me!!!! ‪#‎TheCancerFreeWay‬ ‪#‎JamiesHope‬ ‪#‎JoyYogaCenter‬ ‪#‎Yoga‬ ‪#‎FlowYoga‬ ‪#‎Cancer‬ ‪#‎CancerSucks‬ ‪#‎LifestyleChange‬ ‪#‎CancerFreeWay‬...
Tortured This Morning

Tortured This Morning

TORTURED (lol) this morning by Amanda and Cindy (Neera also joined us), who dragged me out of my house to Hardcore Pilates with Patricia Hall. Survived!!!!!! It was my first time at Pilates and was worried about my hip (cancer and hip replacement) but she was able to adjust my machine which was perfect. The machines are very gentle and actually seemed like the perfect way for me to start working out again. They are working on motivating me and trying to get me moving more so we will be back up there next week smile emoticon Abs are sore already!!!!!!!!!! Soooo thankful to have so many awesome people supporting me as I continue fighting cancer!! My crazy full time health regimen is the hardest thing I have ever done and having motivators in my life truly makes a difference. ~ Jamie ‪#‎JamiesHope‬ ‪#‎TheCancerFreeWay‬ ‪#‎HardCorePilates‬ ‪#‎Pilates‬ ‪#‎Cancer‬ ‪#‎CancerFreeWay‬...

Dang It

Dang It

Dang it… Forgot the ‪#‎Selfie‬ stick! About to get bad results frown emoticon My doctor called when I was about to fly to the Bahamas and wanted me to get home asap after last PET scan. Stress is a killer, that’s the main thing that has really effected me the last 2 months, lost a lot of motivation during stressful times. Now time to get super focused again, really remove a anything stressful and back to Cognitive Therapy too!!!...

Sometimes We Forget

Sometimes We Forget

Often times we focus on the person battling cancer and forget about their loved ones who support them day in & day out. Life is never as it once was. It’s a hard reality to face and can easily crush anyone who has to “stay strong” and fight the battle along side. It’s a job no one ever thinks is going to happen but when it does, they’re there to pick up the pieces. Unless you’ve been in that position, you’ll never truly appreciate what they do. Jamie’s husband, Garrick, is one of those people. For 3 solid years, his beautiful wife has been battling Acinic Cell Carcinoma (not to mention the multiple occurrences, surgeries & radiation treatments in the past). The grueling days and nights have been relentless. It has been a battle no one anticipated & everything about their life has changed. Luckily, Jamie has been able to take the last 7 months off of chemo by taking on another full-time job of juicing, vitamin infusions (& much more) which has helped her physically have more energy to do some of the things they used to… as well as work on their bucket list items! Unfortunately life has taken another swing to the gut & earlier this month, Garrick’s mother, “Gramee” (pictured) was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I honestly don’t know how he’s coping with all of this on top of everything else he has on his shoulders. Please just join me in praying for Garrick & all of the family and friends of those battling on the front lines of cancer. Pray for strength, peace...

Traveling with Cancer.  Juice shipment arrived at Schlitterbahn!

                     Shipment arrived!!!!! Trying to figure out the best ways to travel and stay on my health regimen. This time I had Norina ship it. So it cost $132 for overnight by 10am shipping and took her little over half a day in labor to make it all plus the cost of produce. By doing it this way I didn’t lose a day of vacation trying to find all the organic ingredients and then having to make it all and pack a juicer on top of the vitamix blender. The other option is finding a juice company which I recently tried in Destin. The one company I found did not have the kind of juice I needed for cancer, not all produce is organic, it was far from our resort and was always closed when I had time and the energy to go. Next trip is the Bahamas, have no idea how I am going to do it for the next vaca. ~...
Call me crazy….

Call me crazy….

So call me crazy but one thing I have refused to know over the years is what stage cancer I have. I have never asked, didn’t want to know, always avoided information about learning about staging, maybe in denial…. Yesterday I got the staging education in my mother-in-laws appointment and learned I am Stage 4 frown emoticon However after thinking about it, I was Stage 4 when I had cancer at 23 years old over 10 years ago when it first moved to my bones, so technically I am seriously defying the ODDS!!!!!!! ~ Jamie #JamiesHope #Cancer #CancerFreeWay #Stage4 #StageIV #Odds...
Cancer sucks!!!!!

Back home unfortunately…

Back home unfortunately…

Back home unfortunately… So much easier to find #motivation and #energy to get up everyday and battle life and #cancer when you are on a beautiful #vaca like Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort ! #CancerTraveler pic George Bush Inter-Continental Airport on way home with my #BundlesofHope #Blankie a reminder of Rorie. Also…you can see me carrying our new #Minelab #CTX3030 #MetalDetector !!!! One thing I learned over our trip is I am seriously out of shape, walking and #digging in the sand is probably easier for people that haven’t been battling cancer for years… So think I need to start going to the gym before my next trip smile emoticon...
