It’s been a little bit since I’ve posted anything. The last couple weeks have been really rough. Last Wednesday I started cycle 9, round 1, my overall 17th chemo infusion, and it kicked my ass so much that I woke up in a whole new year 😂. I started getting a fever on Friday and basically went to bed and woke up at some point on Monday feeling a bit better, and then felt a lot better yesterday, just in time for another round of chemo today. It’s hard to spend the days between chemo feeling so crummy and missing out on so much to finally start feeling normal just in time for another round. Today was round 2 of cycle 19 and my 18th overall chemo infusion. I’m really hoping this one doesn’t hit as hard as the last one, but honestly, it probably will. This is hard treatment and, unfortunately, I have a lot of things going against me in this fight. But what I focus on is that the chemo is working, the cancer isn’t spreading, and my body is tolerating it well enough to keep on going. My only plan for this year is to live and enjoy life as much as I can because that’s all I have control over right now, even that is somewhat controlled by cancer’s side effects, but I’m excited for what I have planned so far for this new year and hope to have some more energy for art posts soon! I hope everyone enjoys each day as much as you can because you have no idea what is in store for tomorrow. I wish you all a very happy 2023!!! Im going to make the most of it, I hope you do too! #happynewyear2023 #happynewyear #cancersucks #cancer #pancreaticcancer #livingwithcancer #fargomoorhead #mnartist #artist #tltart #alittletouchofart (at Moorhead, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnAxpWZJ6Ue/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As many of you know, I have been battling lung cancer for the last four years, and unfortunately my cancer has spread. I am currently undergoing aggressive immune therapy treatments, we are seeing good response but we experiencing some complications with my multiple sclerosis. To help with the costs of the medical bills we have started a @gofundme account. Any amount you can donate helps tremendously, and the more you share the more people we reach! I am truly humbled by the support I am getting from so many of you, and I thank you in advance. #cancer #livingwithcancer #livingwithcancerandwinning #livingwithcancersucks #cancersucks #fuckcancer #multiplesclerosis #lungcancer #rheumatoidarthritis #copd #pandemic #pandemiclife #crowdfunding #fundraiser #fundraising #gofundme https://gf.me/u/yug52t (link in bio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZfjI_HKNk/?igshid=jniyhmkl8d35

The Really Rather Annoying Day They Told Me I Had Cancer
You know what it’s like when you head off for your mammogram, or maybe you don’t, maybe you’ve never had one. If you’ve not please don’t put it off when you get the call up. I’ve had three, in a portable mammogram unit in a rather run-down part of town. It reminds me of the mobile library which visited my childhood village every other week, parking in the tennis club car park. I’d read every book in that library, it was one of my favourite places as a child, so nothing could possibly go wrong when they squashed my boobs between those Perspex plates in this place; could it?
The letter arrived a week late; ‘abnormal’, ‘routine’, ‘most people fine’, blah, blah, blah. I’ve still got it filed away in my rather cute Orla Kiely ring binder, an absolute steel at £8 for two from TK Maxx. Every bloody cancer related letter is in there, I actually have a thing about filing paper away, just in case. Just in case what? I have no idea. I have every single piece of paper my children brought home from nursey and primary school. Not just the cute indecipherable drawings and paintings, but also the ‘your daughter has been selected for the cross-country team’ and the ‘your son slept for twenty minutes and was unfortunately bitten by Stanley, Stanley’s parents have been informed’ letters. I take proud parenting to a whole new level.
So here’s my blah, blah, blah letter, here’s the world and his wife telling me their sister-in-law’s, best friend’s aunty got the letter and they were fine so of course I will be too and here I am at the Nightingale Breast Cancer Centre having another mammogram (I’d forgotten about that one, so that’s four not three as previously stated). And here is the doctor telling me he can’t feel a lump but there is something not right. I however feel strangely euphoric, obviously not because he’s saying there’s something wrong but because I’ve not missed a lump, imagine if I had I’d feel terrible. Then this doctor, who is hard to understand, maybe because I’m in shock, scans my left breast and this is how I find out I have breast cancer: he tells the nurse he needs a yellow from and abruptly the atmosphere changes. Now there’s a McMillan nurse holding my hand, I’m lying half naked on a hospital trolley, alone in a room full of strangers and the tricky to understand doctor is telling me he ‘wants t see how far the disease has spread’.
I’m looking at the ceiling lights, and I’m crying and I’m alone and I have breast cancer.
And it’s really bloody annoying.

Tomorrow I start my fourth chemo cycle. Each cycle is three weeks; two weeks of chemo and one one week off. However, this will only be my sixth infusion instead of my eighth because two cycles had to only be one week of chemo due to covid exposure and fun vacations. Since I have unlimited amounts of chemo, missing a round here and there won’t hurt, which is great because I have a lot of life to enjoy still. I’m super excited for a couple trips I have coming up in September and I can’t wait to share them with you all as well. . For now, remember to enjoy life, because you never know how much time you have to really live. . #cancersucks #artisttouch #alittletouchofart #art #letteringart #artoninstagram #artist #TLT #TLTart #fargomoorhead #mnartist #artistoninstagram #livingwithcancer #pancreaticcancer (at Moorhead, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChVElv5JVgI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today’s the day I get to see the oncologist. August 13th, 2019! Since my thyroid has been removed I’ve continued to have issues. I’ve mention many of them in my previous posts. To name a couple different ones I have issues with swallowing my pills, talk as I lose my voice and extreme fatigue.
Anyways time to see the oncologist I’m so excited. I wake up my voice is shot, the right side of my throat is swollen and man I’m soo exhausted. I get to the Drs, get checked in, go to the back. Now I’m at a cancer clinic so it’s extremely cold and my body knows it’s cold but I’m pouring sweat. Why am I pouring sweat?
I do my Intake Dr walks in and we discuss my issues. He asks to to sit on the table and again I’m still sweating, I can barely talk and my throat is swollen. In the deep back of my mind I’m thankful for all of this to be present while I’m seeing the doctor but in the front of my mind I’m thinking “for fucks sake get it together body”. Lol.
Let’s rewind to before surgery I’m seeing my endocrinologist I explain to him “hey look I have swelling in my lymph nodes on the right side of my neck” in which he replies “oh it’s probably allergies they don’t look cancerous”. Now most of you don’t know but I come from a long family of people in the medical field a long with I went to school to be a medical assistant so me being me I’m like ok cool let this dude fuck in and see what happens.
FYI don’t ever challenge the world like that because me having the knowledge I do I should of said “Hey umm you can’t see if they are cancerous or not as it’s an ultrasound”. However, I failed doing so and now here we are.
Fast forward back to present day. The oncologist goes over everything I explained above, asked why I didn’t do RAI and so forth for me to have no answers. I explain my blood work which my thyroglobulin antibodies were fine but my actually thyroglobulin was elevated( this only happens when there is still cancer present within the body and it’s typically due to an autoimmune disease).
This has my oncologist even more worried so I now go for a PET scan next Wednesday. This will help determine where else I may have cancer. From here it’s lots of sleep, mindful eating and taking it easy.

I AM GRATEFUL to be alive. My life with stage 4 Cancer is still a battle that many don’t see or know about. I was so naïve when I was first diagnosed with cancer. I thought surgery would remove the tumor and I’d be done and cancer will be in the past. I was wrong, since then I have learned that’s not the case. I don’t show it much but i want to be real. I like to keep things happy because that’s what I CHOOSE everyday…you have to choose it. Since cancer I struggle to feel normal again; to motivate myslef out of bed; to take life altering meds still that make you feel like crap; to be active since I’m physically exhausted; but after all is said and done…I AM GRATEFUL. whatever I am right now is a heck of a lot better than what I was 3 years ago, 1 year ago or even 6 months ago…with little strides she makes big moves. I Am Grateful. I now know how strong I am. I now know my faith. I now know that I CAN DO HARD THINGS. So yes…each day is a battle… and I STRUGGLE with many things now. But I am still fighting. #day 1,302#LivingWithCancer #Stage4Cancer #grateful #livingfortoday #cancerfighter #mamafightingcancer #Pray #Godisgood #Godisincontrol #Godcanhealcancer #prayerchangesthings https://www.instagram.com/p/CeSWduuLT9dSYDHB4xcvEUPFwCZLXIotUzqIno0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The week of my birthday my daughter was diagnosed with leukemia. I haven’t been able to work since and made the decision to let go of nola esoteric as a company. I’m working on a new project and will make the shift soon. Of course it will boast the same top notch quality standards but be more specific and exclusive. Everything has changed in my life over the last three months. I’ve moved, lived my worst nightmare, and gone through hell. Now it’s time to let go and move forward. I have to sell through what’s left of this amazing brand. So while I’m trying to get my life back on track.. Please consider supporting my daughter and I with a purchase or donation via our go fund me [link in bio]. I’m a single mom receiving no monetary support from her father or the state government. This work is all I have.. creating magic to help others is my life. I am an astrologer, tarot, and palm reader with 20+ years experience. I’ve worked for major holistic skin care and supplement companies. Now I work for myself. Everything I make is done with great attention to detail and endless passion for my craft. While I’m coming back to life from the brink of hopelessness, your support means everything to me. Thank you so much. Xo- Ruby 🖤🔥 . . . . . #octoberfuckyeah #nolaesoteric #allthatremainsiswitchcraft #witchesgonnawitch #clearancesale #occultshop #crytals #salves #herbalism #potions #esoteric #macabre #neworleans #singlemomlife #livingwithcancer #womenownedbusiness (at Lower Ninth Ward) https://www.instagram.com/p/BofIhVEnHDX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uwwb10jjinei
