wild ride?

well. 2 years and 11 days after i started getoutofmyboob, 226 posts later, i think i'm ready to take a break. (although a friend said i should just change the name to checkoutmynewrack.)

i've been pretty quiet ever since my almost final reconstruction surgery. for some reason, all of a sudden, this whole process feels more private than public now. it's been 2+ years since my diagnosis. 2+ years since my mastectomy. 1 year 11 months since chemo started. 1 year 8 months since chemo ended. 1 year 6 months since my hair started growing back. and it's been pretty f-ing intense. let me tell you.

now i just feel like...i need to take a break. i need to take some time to really process all that has happened in the last two years. take some time to think about what i want to do next. and somehow that process doesn't feel possible in the public arena of getoutofmyboob.

HOWEVER. i may change my mind. i know i'll have to have some updates when all is DONE...probably about 6 more months from now.

i'm eternally grateful for what this blog helped me do: connect with people, simultaneously process and share my story, and get ridiculous amounts of support.


love, love, and love,
meghan and kitty.
and the new cancer-free boobs.
and the awesome new car.
