they lied

I was told I wouldn’t get my period again while on chemo. They lied. I was looking forward to not getting it, a small bonus if you will, for going thru this crap.
I went shopping for jeans this morning cause I need them. Tried on 2 pairs, realized I don’t know what size I am anymore, got discouraged and decided I’ll buy them when I’m thru with all this cancer treatment. While I was in the store, a guy looked at me and smiled. I ignored him and turned away, thinking if he saw the real me, the smile would be a grimace so why bother. Obviously something new to get over. I was feeling sorry for myself so stopped at the casino on the way home. Won some money so a bad day turned into a good day after all.
