I went on a writing hiatus from my dating blog.

I hope you still remember me!

In a nutshell, here’s what you missed:

 

I got a massage {you read that right}.

Where a therapist found a pink lesion {who knew they showed up in various colors?} on my back.

 

I had it biopsied {ouch}.

And learned that it was melanoma, stage 3.

I thought, “No big deal … it’s just skin cancer.”

And soon came to the understanding that it’s kind of a big deal {any amount of research could have told me that}.

 

After a scan..

We realized that it had spread its quick, little way around my body {sneaky little bugger}.

So, I went through treatment.

And in my last month, right before I went into remission, I met a boy {stay tuned for the story}.

But … it came back.

Waah.

And now … here I am.

In love and finding health.

 

I’ve learned a lot.

Mostly about what’s good for our bodies … and skin {something I’m particularly passionate about now}.

And I’ve come to shocking realizations about what’s regulated – and not regulated – in the U.S.

 

In this blog, you’ll find excerpts about what I’ve learned with a lil’ fashion – and dating – mixed in.

 

I hope you enjoy and will be in touch!
