Here I am...

The pictures on this page represent a process in my life...
one that's been the hardest thing I've ever done. As I
progress through treatment for my disease, I'm recording
changes in my appearance. However, my attitude remains
the same.... I am a survivor.

10 Kisses for you

I'm not quite brave enough yet for a bald pic, but one may
be forthcoming soon. We'll see how bold I can be.

This is cute.

Help me decide....

Right before my hair completely fell out, I cut it short so it
wouldn't be quite so painful. I wanted to show this step, too.
Without the makeup, earrings, and hat, I look like a boy.

The following pictures are in reverse order. The last photo
shows me before the disease had been diagnosed. The
weight loss has been wonderful (although I could've used a
different diet plan) and I hope it will be permanent. I'm
looking forward to the return of my hair, though. I think I'm
going to add a bald picture soon to the very bottom.

Thanks for looking at my page, especially since it's nothing but a narcissistic little spot to post the latest experiments with my new camera. Remember my favorite saying: "It is an accomplishment to bite off more than one can chew, and then chew it."

Yikes! Here I am in all my glory. Consider yourselves
lucky... not even those who are closest to me
get to see me like this for very long.

On December 27th, 1999 Jacki (Peeknatu), finally lost her battle to survive the following message was delivered by her brother-in-law:

My name is Robert Carter. I am married to Jacki's sister JoDawn.

I am afraid I have bad news. Jacki passed away yesterday after a long battle with cancer.

I want you to know that she was brave and fought a good fight. The doctors and nurses said they had never seen anyone stronger.

Her Christian witness was stong and I never heard her ONCE say anything negative about her Lord or the hand that life had delt her.

I know you greive with me and we are all going to miss her.

Sorry for the bad news

Robert
