Shock

My armpit is dark red, purple, and blackish in parts. It hurts and feels like the skin is stretching, but its not bad. I haven't written anything in a while because I'm in shock. Monday we found out that my cousin passed away. Out of nowhere. She was 38, married and has 3 kids. She went to the doctor at 10 in the morning or so because she'd been sick for a while and by 3:30 she was gone. She had complications due to pneumonia. Its rare, and seems more like a freak accident. Brent and I are headed to southern California for the funeral, which will hopefully be somewhat healing for us, but mainly for her husband, children, parents, siblings, and friends.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I'll be praying for your trip and your family.

Wow! So young to have that happen!
I would guess you have a small blood vessel that broke from all of the trauma of Chemo and radiation!
Donna and I continue to pray for "all" of your family!
