"COMFORT KIT" UPDATE

FINALLY!!! It's here "COMFORT KIT" UPDATE!!!!

 

Hey Loves! Hope y'all had an amazing day! SUPER stoked that I finally finished this batch of new comfort kits! It was a bit hard cause I had originally wanted to post earlier but had to take breaks in between due to the pain from my dang gallbladder! But finally after forever and a day I am now here and excited to share with ya all the details!

 First off, I can not even began to describe how amazingly beautiful these beanies are and how they came out!! Im so beyond blessed and thankful that they were hand made and customized just for our special fighters and I can not wait for the patients to receive them!!!!! (Here are just a few up above) A huge shout out goes to Mrs.M.Gonzales!!!! She took the time out to make these beauty's and donate them and I just can not thank you enough!!! I know for a fact that the patients will love them and again I am beyond so blessed and so grateful for you to have gone out of you way to do this for us!!

I also want to take the time to give a shout out To all that have donated by either purchasing our clothing which helped us take a portion to make these kits and to those who have just generously gave us a donation out the kindness of their hearts for us to do this! Without you none of this would be happening, you are helping us make a difference here at Chromatic L'Amour and for that I can not thank you enough!!! Thank you Thank you for helping me live out my dreams and helping me make a difference! Also a huge shout out to Mrs.G.Valdez for a very generous offer that all went to the Kits and again Mrs.M.Gonzales for making an donating the beanies!!!!! Thank you sooooooooo much I love you!!!! You guys Rock!!!

And here they are! Some pics of the comfort kits!!! Im sorry I know they aren't the best quality pics but I don't have a really fancy smancy camera to take cool photos unfortunately haha! Buuut I do have an really cool iPhone that gets the job done so thank you iPhone you did well!!!

This time the comfort kits included on the go Water bottle containers, tissues, hand sanitizers, the beanies and more! Most of the time A lot of people who aren't familiar with what we do are confused sometimes with what we put in the kits. Tissues hand sanitizers? All the items that are in the kits are something that the patients can use during treatment or even at home! I remember when I was in the hospital or at my treatments these where things I needed on daily basis even on the go or during appointments. Its just a little something to show we care and something to hopefully comfort and bring a smile to their faces! And not to mention I thought since its so close to Easter to make cute baskets to put every thing in, cool right! >

I hope I will be able to deliver these sometime this week! Im aiming and hoping for tomorrow but it depends on when the Oncology center can allow me to and then they are off and into the hands of the patients! And as for a quick Chromatic L'Amour update I know a lot of you are asking if we have an online website and sadly no not yet but one day! As for now we are promoting here and there at random trying to spread the word, and are hoping to do more events so that you can purchase some Chromatic gear! Until then I will for sure let you know when we do our next event!

Busy Bee

Hey Loves! Hoping you all had a great day and a perfect night! Sooooo you know when your day is soooo crazy and ur running around all day trying to get everything done, and no matter how early you wake your self up its like still not enough time to get everything complete on your todo list. HELLO that's me with Mah hand up in the air cause that's my true story today. Its like one of those days as soon as you get home your like I need a drink! Yeuup! That was me today, well minus the drink unfortunately. (WAAAAAAAAAH!) I know I could use a nice glass of wine right about now but since im on meds Im left to roam the day with just my Vitamin water. SAD FACE

 So on to todays journey, I woke up extremely early got my self ready was about to walk out the door and then that's when all things became crazy, apparently I have no primary physician any more because my old one left the office (which im totally sad over because she was so cool) so they gave me a new one which is great right, except the fact I need my gallbladder removed ASAP and the only thing left standing in my way is to get refered to a surgeon by my regular physician. Why its that way idk but its kinda hard since I had to call and set up everything with all kinds of paper work on my own, sooooo the surgery is on hold for now until I can be seen. Buuuuuuut they said I cant be seen till the ending of next month HA! So with that being said there was many phone calls and confusion and I was left doctor-less for about an hour and thank the LORD!!! I got me a new doc and will be seen next week!! AMEN!! cause I don't know how much longer I can last with this horrid stomach pain, the meds seem to work for a lil but ware off fast and believe me when I say every six hours is like litteraly a pain to wait for the next dose. And of course my mornig got pushed back and then I was off to get a couple last minute things fooooor "COMFORT KITS!!!"

Heres a Sneaky peeky! Just a few lil things I got today, More pics will be up tomorrow!! I originally had planned to get everything done today buuut due to my whole run around with the doc thang I will have to finish up tomorrow but not to worry just come on by tomorrow and I will have more updates for ya loves!!!

 

In the mean time ima go eat because im starving and I will back tomorrow!! I had to post a pic of this beauty because look at it mmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!  Alriiighty thaaaan Have your selfs a great night loves see ya in the morning!!!

Alive And Loving All

Hey you beautiful Loves! Hope all y'all had a fab day and are having a great night! It tis late but I just couldn't help mah self I had to blog to feel ya in on whats been goin on round huur. ok! So first things first. . . . . . . Yuuuuuuuuuuuuup it aint no surprise, I bet you prob already guessed DRUUUUUM ROOOOOOOOOOOLL! YES its true I was in the ER again. I promise to make this story short and hopefully entertaining with my experience for your reading pleasure of course, but Sometimes I feel like I should just change this to a " How many times have I been to the Er" blog! Buuuuuuuut I wont I will just stick to my very own horrific grammar random moments blog for now, but its an idea for another blog that's for sure ha!

 

Ok sooo back on the subject it was on Friday night I started to feel the worst pain ever in my upper stomach/ribcage, It was so bad it shot all the way back to my back! It started off as heartburn and what felt like acid reflex which is something unfortunately after treatments I noticed my stomach started to become familiar with, so it wasn't like a big shock. But eventually it was so bad I was vomiting from the pain and could barely walk. I was in the waiting room for 6 hours before getting in a room and to make things worse lets just say thank GOD!! Thank you!!! For my amazing Mom for driving me and helping me get out of the car since apparently no one at the front office of the ER could help on account of being to busy.(Apparently I guess working in the ER office has changed and being busy meant standing around doing absolutely nothing while talking/laughing) any way After a total of what was 12 hours x-rays and other tests, it was mah dang gallbladder! I finally will be in the process of finally removing it due to gallstones being stuck.

 

At times I have people tell me I have been through so much and that it seems like I cant catch a break. And although sometimes I want to agree something holds me back and I cant help but say things happen for a reason. Some agree and others don't but to me I truly believe that no matter what comes our way we are put through things to learn and become wiser and stronger from it. God has truly been with me every step of the way every day good or bad and its not that he allows bad things to happen, but more of the scence that this is the path I must walk to get where I need to be. Along the way there may be hard times but I will pull through with his love and grace and make the best of it. Why?! Because I remember that im not living for me. We are here on this earth for one purpose, and if Loving,trying to help, and care for other people means going through tough times to help others than why not. Hard times wont last forever and are simply just another bump in the road.

(Make sure to Follow me on Instagram if you haven't already)

 

I lay awake in bed every night and every moment reflecting on my life and to be honest I didn't start living until the day I realized what truly really mattered. Im blessed to have a 2nd chance at livig and every moment that I get will not be wasted. Its very easy to get distracted I will admit, theres times I get very dpressed over some things but I come back to the realization of why I started and why Im here still. There's many things in life I need to do and lately no matter how hard life gets or what pain I feel in things I choose to make something good come out of it!!!

Which brings me to hopefully tomorrows "NEW" post : of Chromatic L'Amour's new set Of "Comfort Kits" progress! Pain and all y'all im still workin on  maken a difference!! And to me that's whats most important and what I live for!

 

And of course ya know I had to post a pic of this lil Darlin! Im not sure if it was or not but to me every day is National Puppy Day!!!! Isnt she the cutest! Although she is the hardest kid to take a pic of! Its blurry but its the best I could do with her today haha!! She was so excited to be playin in her Nana's and Gran Pops backyard!

Well apparently Its already tomorrow now so im off to shoot out the lights! Gotta big bright and early day tomorrow, Night Loves!

 

 

It was 3:49 AM when I last glanced at the clock. I was screaming so loud at the top of my lungs not only do I think the heavens could hear my awful horrid scream, but everyone in the neighborhood. I can still feel the tears running down my face as I lay paralyzed chocking on my sobs. My throat is really soar and a whole hour has already passed since my nightmare, if you can even call it that. Waking up to what I can remember a shadow figure choking me is not so much my favorite wake up call.02/03/2015

So how was that for a change, sort of a creepy way to start off this blog post but of course leave it to me to post something like that! The even creepier part is its a true story, maybe it was all the stress at that time but apparently February was the month for the most horrific back to back nightmares for me. In most of my latest posts these last couple of months I've talked about not feeling very well and not knowing why, it seemed like pretty much all the time I was sick with random things. Unfortunately with that it came along with a whooole lot of trips to the ER including bringing me to my most recent trip to the ER which happened to land on an unexpected day. Ooooh Valentines day ya sure gave me a thrill this year that's for sure!

Thank God after loads of extremely horrible head pain and bloody noses and what felt like millions of test scans/Spinal Tap mini procedure, it was all worth it to find out that I did not have an Aneurism. Although I was bursting with joy to get the news that thank God it wasn't an Aneurism it struck up some fear and A red flag not just to me but to my doctors. Sooooooo they issued a PET SCAN.

Pet scans are always really nerve wrecking because they show if your system is clear or if there is detected cancer in the body. Every so often I get a pet scan because Im still not out of the woods yet, it has been a while I've been clear but because my of my case of Hodgkin's it was very different than most so I have a different recovery process. So when my numbers go up because of me being sick with all kinds of random stuff its scary because I have to go through the whole process again and have to do all kinds of tests. To make sure its not the hodgkins and the easiest way is the pet scan sooooooo with that being said im very happy to say that it came back clear!!!! I have learned I need my gallbladder taken out and still am not sure why I have a chronic cough but Im not complaing as long as im clear of cancer! And it came just in time for a somewhat new fresh start for my 23rd Birthday!!!

Words cant describe how truly blessed I feel to be another year wiser. The best gift of all is being able to wake up and being able to be with the ones I love the most! For me I feel Birthdays are my new fresh start of the year feeling, because I always feel so much more I guess older haha. I can see myself becoming more of a women each year and this year im very happy to be where I'am.

Plus I be lying if I wasn't excited about my birthday dinner mah Momma makes every year for me!!!! I mean how good does this look!!! Yuuuuuum!!

This year I chose sea food and it was amaaaaaaayzing!!!!! Thank you Mommy!!!

And as my favorite Disney song says, "When you wish upon a shooting star Makes no difference who you are anything your heart desires It will come to you If your heart is in your dream No request is to extreme" so on that note here is quick update on Chromatic L'Amour for you loves!!! I know its been a while since I've talked about Chromatic and posted on instagram but I've been taking more time to focuse on the "Comfort Kits!"
