Well this is the first post ever. I suppose I should share a little bit about myself.
Hi. I'm Elaine.
My friends call me Laney, and I answer to damn near anything. I live in Hawaii. I'm 28, and attend Leeward Community College and planning to attend the University of Hawaii Manoa next semester. I work at a bank. I have a sister who I love very dearly.
I like nerdy people/things.
I'm a huge fan of television, as long as reality show's stay out of my way. So don't ask me what I thought about American Idol, The Bachlor, or any other show like that. I havent watched MTV since 1998. I do like PBS, Nova, especially. I really enjoy sitcom shows. The Nanny, Golden Girls, Glee, Castle, Hawaii 5-0 (old and new) Criminal Minds, Doctor Who, Torchwood, Supernatural, Fringe. Stop me. Please.
I have a LiveJournal page that I use often, a tumblr I use twice as often and a twitter account that I never use and a myspace page that is still open but never updated.
Ok, I've decided thats enough about me, and since this is my blog, I can do whatever I want.
So here's the real reason I decided to start this blog.
I have cancer. I'm not a survivor. I have it. I was dignosed yesterday with adenocarcinoma, cancer of the uterus. I don't know anything about it yet, other than what I've read online. I see an oncologist about it on Monday and he'll be able to tell me more about it and the types of treatments that I will need to have.
I'm scared. Really scared that I won't live long enough to do all the things that I want to do with my life. I feel like I wasted so much time, fumbling around trying to figure out what I really wanted, and now, well now, it feels like I'm running out of time. That's probably not true, if we caught this thing early enough, I've got a 95% chance. Even if we caught it in the late stages, its still a 40% chance, and that's better than nothing.
I suppose I wanted somewhere to vent, be afraid, and to just talk about my fears.
Or just somewhere to talk peroid.
