My personal journal with breast cancer #NotHer2

Welcome to Not Her2, my personal journal of my experiences since being diagnosed with breast cancer. I want to use this platform as an opportunity to help educate and inspire my readers. Hopefully we can fight to end breast cancer and we can stop saying,  "Not her too!"  

Smart Traveling Necessities

Mark and I are sponsors (Godparents) for his lovely niece (Kristin) and her soon to be hubby (Alex) on their nuptials this weekend. We are traveling to the Bay Area for the wedding.


Well the airport is full of people and it’s a holiday weekend - Happy Birthday USA 🇺🇸


The TSA guy who checked my ID and boarding pass at the security line had to do a double take. I took off my mask, smiled and said yep I used to have hair. He laughed and let me go.


My port didn’t make the detectors go off! YAY! I didn’t think it would. I didn’t go through a body scan but I’m curious if they'd see my port and question me about it.


Items I made sure I had with me in my carry on bag pack are:

- antibacterial wipes (had biodegradable ones from Melaleuca)

- mask (mine was from Amazon)

Washable Cotton Anti Dust Mask - Earloop Respirator Reusable Half Face Safety Masks - Breathable Mask with PM2.5 Activated Carbon Filter Insert for Running, Allergy,Flu https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FKZT5M2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_NClhDbAPJJYN5

- hand sanitizers (in 3 oz bottles)

- moisturizing hand sanitizing wipes (biodegradable from Melaleuca)

- hand lotion because other hand sanitizers dry out my hands (Melaleuca has Renew in travel size)

- sunscreen (a must especially during summer)

- lip balm (not pictured)

- a water bottle. Keep it empty until you pass security. Then I filled mine with lemonade. I love my Hydroflask (not pictured)


I had to be a smart wellness traveler when going through treatment. Yes I am the Asian that wears a mask 😷 😂 and wiped everything especially that tray at your seat.


I wish everyone a fun and safe 4th of July!


Thank you for the prayers and positive energy vibes! Love you all! XOXOXOXO
