Since one of my old videos got bumped today, and since I am currently in isolation, I had time to make a new one. I have been radioactive since Wednesday morning and I will be for a few more days. I can’t leave my bedroom or have any contact with another living being until next week. I’ve been on a Low Iodine Diet for three weeks and right now, I’d pretty much do anything for a piece of bacon, the one exception is taking the CPA exam again! I will never be that desperate! The reason I picked this song is because I am literally “Glowing in the Dark”. I was on a Skype video chat with my sister in law and you could see sparkles all around me. It’s the radiation coming out. But if this is what it takes to kill it all then it’s worth it too.

Kricket – At the risk of a sappy post, thank you for sharing that video!! You are an inspiration to me and I appreciate your transparency. It literally brought tears to my eyes. I have also been dealing with health issues as I've struggled with this exam for four years.. Today was my last iron (I hope) treatment and I feel so weak, fatigued and my entire body hurts. I plowed through the Yaeger Cram lecture on Cash Flows but don't have the energy to focus on MCQs. I was kicking myself for not being able to do them but you are right…it is a FIGHT!! Tonight I rest and tomorrow, I will try again! I am so grateful for the encouragement from a kindred spirit.

I'm sorry to hear of your illness and will be praying for a complete recovery. Maybe those sparkles were little bits of your awesomeness shining through! =) God bless you!

Thanks everyone!

BaxterCPA – IV Iron is painful and takes FOREVER! I've had those twice and that was more than enough. I'm praying for you!

Yes… The side effects are the worst for me. Yesterday was my 9th and last. I have surgery scheduled for Oct 16 and I lose AUD on Oct 18th (my birthday!). The pressure is on to pass in August. :/
