—Vlog— Surgery Day How I prepared the morning of —Vlog—
Surgery Day

How I prepared the morning of surgery to remove my 
Melanoma Cancer on my face…

A few things that helped me for the 4-6 hour surgery day.

-Started day with Warm lemon water 
-Prayers, Devotion and journaling. (This helps start your day off right and with strength and peace)🙏🏻
- My Doctor suggested having high protein (I made A high protein Smootie with High antioxidants & Vic C for healing

- Washed hair & styled as I wasn’t sure when I would get to take a shower & wash hair,due to Stitches & bandages on face.

- Essentials, ear buds to listen to a podcast or audio book, my lap top in case I wanted to watch a movie, ice water, a protein bar, lip gloss, a charger and a hair tie❤️

- Comfortable Clothing 

If you want more details on my Melanoma Journey 💪🏻I have two LIVES🎥 in feed SHARING the details the day before, on what to look for, what the difference is between skin cancer and melanoma, what mine looked like and  What procedure the surgeon is doing , as what we did prior to prep, and answering questions-labeled Part one in feed and I am wearing a denim top.
&
-The day after surgery- sharing how it went, results, how I felt, a peek at how far the stitches went, what care is, and next steps as well as answering a ton of questions I received in DMs.  That one you’ll see the bandage on my face😉

I am being very real and authentic with you in sharing this journey, to help spread awareness on the importance of having your skin checked by a dermatologist.🧑‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

While also showing how smoothing so small can take a lot of work to be removed, while also showing…. It will be ok, and you may feel scared and think you’ll never look the same, but you can be brave, trust the process and we’ll heal and look normal again:) It just takes time😉❤️💋💪🏻🙏🏻

Update: Today is 7 days after surgery and I had my stitches taken out yesterday! 
Now the real healing begins. 
I finally had a decent nights sleep, my face is swollen, I don’t look like Frankenstein anymore😉 and although the scar goes from my under eyelashes to my jaw, it looks better then I thought it would. It’s pretty flat and the Dr, who stitched me up did an amazing job. ❤️#melanoma

5 Days of Family Fun … Wrapped up in 20 Photos✔️ 5 Days of Family Fun …
Wrapped up in 20 Photos✔️

I can’t tell you how fun the last 5 days have been full of family, adventures, building memories and reminiscing of past. 

Although we do try to get together often, this was one of those rare times, we actually had more time, more intention and something Nana, really needed more then ever❤️ 

No rushing, no drama just togetherness and enjoying each other …

Along with some fun Utah activities and places. It truly was a great time together ❤️

I’ve been sharing a lot in stories 🎥

Planing a trip to Utah?
Here’s a few places and things we did, that everyone enjoyed.

@thegrandamerica (the cocktail lounge is where we surprised nana) beautiful hotel, great cocktails & live piano & harp music- gorgeous lights and the Laurel restaurant is so good.

@proskijor  Horse & Ski Event in Heber (2 day event) 2 dates and locations on calendar for Utah 

Midway -a cute little Swiss town next to Heber, with great restaurants and little shops. @ballerinafarmstore  is located here and a must stop.

Park City & Deer Valley- Great Ski town full of everything you’d expect and more. @jcrew had a Olympic Clothing collab pop-up (I had to check out) 

With a large group & perfect for Car  enthusiasts Billy Blanko Mexican restaurant can accommodate you and it’s a very fun vibe part of @billwhiterestaurants 

@themercantile_on25th  is a great brunch & The girls loved the iced lattes 

@snowbasinresort is our local ski resort (my families fav) Stunning lodges with good food to hang out in , if your not a skier and amazing terrain if you are🎿🚠

I’ll be sharing more details and a few more fun things later this week……Wait tell you see what the highlight of everyone’s Trip was….I bet you can’t guess💙💙

It’s something EVERYONE loves and can’t get enough of 💙

#familyfirst❤️ #familyvacay #utahtrip #wintervacation
Never underestimate the power of joy & the healing Never underestimate the power of joy & the healing family can bring❤️🙏🏻

When 6 Grandchildren & their spouses along with parents traced from 3 states to surprise their Nana….

Not only did they get the reaction they hoped for…. They gave her what she needed❤️❤️

It’s been one year since we lost Papa and this surprise lifter her sprints more than they could have hoped for. 

5 days of family bonding, sightseeing in Utah with love and a lot of laughter! 

I highly recommend a family surprise visit to help lift a family members spirit.

There wasn’t a dry eye 🥹in the lounge at the @thegrandamerica 
One of the waiters came up and said “I knew something special was going to happen… Was the sweetest thing to watch🥹❤️”
He even thank all of us❤️❤️❤️

(I think he wanted to hug Nana too😉😂)

The joy of family, family heals, lifting your spirits

A flash back to 2016 …. The changes and the simil A flash back to 2016 ….

The changes and the similarities from 10 Years ago!

Sharing 20 photos… looking back at Instagram trends, fashion, what photos caught people’s attention, what I shared back then and some pinch me moments! 

Still having pinch me moments as a midlifer, in a career that didn’t even exist until 2010 and really didn’t start picking up steam until 2015/16

Isn’t that crazy… and think of all the new careers still to come….
