| Description: | I started A Mama’s Blog in January of 2007. I started the blog because I wanted a way I could preserve the daily happenings with my boys. Over the course of a year, I realized that I also wanted my boys to know who I am/was, besides just their mother, during this time in their lives while they are young. I started writing other topics on A Mama’s Blog, that interest me, and that I am passionate about, mainly information on C-sections, VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) births, breastfeeding, and pregnancy and birth issues. I am currently undergoing thyroid cancer treatment and that has become a sujbect I have and am writing about. I hope some of what I write on these subjects help others, in their search for information. By not only writing about my boys but also writing about subjects that are important to me (at least important enough at the time I wrote it), I am also preserving some of myself. I hope one day Ryan and Cole will want to read what I have written not only about their lives during this period of their lives, but also about my life. I hope this will assist them if they ever want to know more about me-their mother. |

Earth Mama Angel Baby Giveaway- C-Mama Healing Salve (Scar Healing)
I promised a few months ago, I would share the amazing scar reducing-healing product that was sent to me complimentary from Earth Mama Angel Baby, after my thyroid cancer, and neck dissection surgery. I have mentioned in a few previous blog posts that I could not believe how wonderful this salve works, and I promised to write a blog post about it. Since then, I have received a nu

Ready to Run!
Last month I ran in my first ever running race, The Denver Koman Race for the Cure, supporting breast cancer. At the end of that post, I mentioned my running journey was going to be continued. On Saturday, I will run in my second race. It is the Denver’s Veteran’s 5K race, before the Veteran’s Day Parade in downtown Denver. One big difference in this race from the Race for the Cure, is this race will be timed. I will have an official finishing time and ranking at the end of the race. I’m curious to see

Good-Bye to Cancer
Two weeks ago, I had a follow up appointment with the surgeon who performed my thyroidectomy and neck dissection, Dr. S. He said the incision site on the side of my neck was still swollen some, and is healing. That side of my neck is pretty numb- I get a “pins and needles” sensation when I touch it, but it doesn’t bother me. Dr. S. said the entire incision is healing perfectly, and just as it should. He examined my neck and throat area and said everything felt just like it should- translation: no new enlarged lymph nodes or nodules. I informed him I had not had my

H1N1/Swine & Seasonal Flu Vaccines
I was concerned when the outbreak of H1N1, or swine flu occurred last April. I was concerned about my children catching the virus. In April there was no vaccine for H1N1. As I researched it, most experts recommended hand washing was the best way to protect yourself and children from the flu. I also came across statistics that said more people die of the regular flu virus yearly,

Attitude & Medication
On Saturday, I took Ryan and Cole to the North Pole (a Christmas themed amusement park for kids), which is about 100 miles from my home. We spent the night at my dad’s house in Denver, and then drove the rest of the way outside Colorado Springs on Saturday. My sister, her daughter, my sister-in-law, and my dad came too. The weather was perfect, and the kids had the best time. Watching the kids having so much fun made the day for the adults. The only negative aspect of the trip for me, was while I was unpacking at my dad’s house on Friday night, I discovered I had forgotten to bring my Synthroid (thyroi
