New year, new business, new doctors!

Happy January! Almost February!!!  I started selling Jewelry in Candles this last week!  It’s super cool.  #soy #candles #madeinusa.  Many fun fragrances ranging from mild to intense, in wax tarts or candles and body butter!  Jewelry comes in everything!  And the scents are amazing. It’s the only type of candle that does not give my dad a headache.  I will post images about what JIC is later, if you’d like to see my Facebook page and website, here are both links:

I am doing fundraising with my local oncology group, we have a CrowdRise page to help raise funds for events! It’s super fun, I had originally been planning a big event until I found out we weren’t able to get funds for seed money :(.  We have a panel at the local hospital next week where a few of us will be talking about camps like #campmakadream and #firstdescents and #stupidcancer!

I went back to the doctor because I still have this nasty cough. I was freaking out about finding nodules on my chart thing that were never explained to me, but she set me straight.  However, she wants me to lose 30 lbs. in 6 months, see a nutritionist and obesity clinic, but I can’t even see them until March, and she wants me down 15 lbs. by our April follow up.  So, if you’re a nutritionist out there and willing to do a phone consult, please email me!!! hansonsj24@gmail.com

Happy New Year!

2015 was an interesting year.  I had health problems which sucked (still no reason as to why or how but I seem to be stable at the moment for my unknown but severe acid reflux) but I was able to travel the country! I went to Montana, Wyoming, Minnesota and out to Canada for an annual fishing trip!  I learned to kayak, I met many other young adult cancer survivors and attended camp where I rock climbed, and zip lined! Amazing!!! I’ve got lots of anxiety, so to do these things without giving up because of fear was awesome!  Lately I’ve been getting involved with my local oncology group for fundraising which is pretty exciting.  I crocheted a bowser for my nephews Christmas present, and I’ve been trying to do more coloring and painting.  This weekend the nephews are over and we’re having good times playing in the snow, board games, playing pool and watching movies!   I also received my certificate for “art therapist registered ” and “licensed professional counselor”!!!!!! Woohoo!!
