Track Pants

Many moons ago I vowed never to wear track pants outside of the house unless, of course, I was in fact running or working out. The year leading up to being diagnosed I was a hard core workaholic artist. Everything I owned was covered in paint. When I was wisked off to the Vancouver hospital I had nothing but a coat, pjs and studio shoes, all covered in paint.

When I was released from the hospital I had to wear guys hospital shorts. My body size and shape had changed so I bought two pairs of $15 track pants. Long story-short, I still have them and that's all I have to wear! Save me from the God forsaken track pants!

Considering I'm not able to work yet, my dream isn't likely to come true...but I can dream.

Okay, so the track pants... I wore them ALL thru probably 10 out of 12 chemos. I hate them and hope I never wear them again! I also had only one pair, and I still think they're pretty ugly, and they're about 10 years old -- good thing I bought them big then! I had to buy all new pants so that I can sorta dress "normal" now, but still, I dress like a chemo'd up fat kid. Anywho, you hang in there, we'll both get real pants someday :)

Glad you found my blog, so that I could become a fan of yours as well!

Thanks for the track pant empathy. If you're not careful they can last post chemo! The horror!
