[Music]
you
Loreena and I are on our way to wisteria
eyelid aka Christmas tree eyelid after
the hurricane many were left without
homes and boats on this island
[Music]
okay we're on wisteria island right now
and it's
so about a month ago that's when the
storm actually happened and we all left
sound but was it curious uh you know
like here he is little thing cuz then
everybody was a little hesitant to go
because you know storms do go around and
we literally left town on a motorcycle
after the hospital's closed and went
from state state state living on outside
and rest stops and wondering how we are
gonna beat herself next meal I had $700
saved up from working you know yeah it's
exhausting so you came back to Nova
didn't have any luck we do so there are
they most of them here on this island
still
[Music]
yeah a little bit it's definitely oh
gosh look at this he hasn't come well
thank you thank you opening yourself up
and letting us in a little
and this is the main part of it I might
go a little further this by thank you I
returned to wisteria island alone just
to try to explore a little bit more just
to try to show you guys
in the state of Florida if you believe
you found an abandoned vessel then you
file a claim with law enforcement they
put that red sticker on the boat they
give the owner certain amount of time to
call and claim ownership if not then you
know you pay the fees and you assume
ownership of the vessel
this is really hard hard to look at it's
a little bit I feel a little bit almost
wrong to be filming it you know but it's
just my intention to share with you guys
to let you see the reality of Hurricane
Irma and you know it's a it's pretty bad
it's really bad it's how you come in on
the dank we were just having breakfast
on the bench over there
yeah and thought you'd come in on the
day again yeah we gotta go say hello so
how cool is that
what's way cool man cuz we were talking
about when we can't we got down here on
Wednesday we said be really cool if we
could run in the Joel whatever and just
kind of say hello and
so it's October is Breast Cancer
Awareness Month and probably a month or
so ago maybe two months ago we
identified a lump on her breast and you
know blah blah blah we get a call from
the doctor on the way home he says hey
man how about you stop by the office and
we go well that's not good I didn't want
to stop by the office so we stopped by
the office and he identifies that she
has breast cancer then I opted to just
have it all taken out I opted from full
mastectomy take the nipple take
everything because the nipple has breast
tissue in it I didn't I didn't want I
didn't want to be dealing with this
anymore
and then lovely I have the option to
reconstruction right there
and there during the same search
so I had just one surgery and so right
so as you're doing this I mean what you
guys have to figure out is okay wait so
she lost one which one is she looks
after they had the surgery they did
pathology on
tomber and I came back at stage two
aggressive so now I have to have
chemotherapy and I I have to I'm gonna
be doing chemo on Friday is my first one
you're here in Key West to kind of light
my hair on fire before it goes away QSR
so to celebrate to celebrate life and to
live life not a guest sense I get to
live
I get to have a food which I always
wondered what it would be like to have a
food I'm going I'm waiting for Shelly no

so I because I opted to the nipple to be
gone I get to have a tattoo II and it's
gonna be the Key West called Sun Hey as
my tattoos and why don't you share the
name of your boat now that's a good time
to share the name so our boat is Kyle
way so
which is Spanish for Key West so my
doctor my doctor says hundred percent
guarantee we'll lose my hair so I dyed
it pink
before I lives at all I have a beautiful
scarf I would not take my score away
from anything I love my scar it's a
badge of honor
it means a means a lot to me
and it's beautiful and it is beautiful
and I look at my scar so much that I'm
now when I look at my normal breasts I
think it looks funny to be on to be
honest I I look at a nipple and I'm like
that looks weird it should be a score
that's that's kind of how white people
like
the fact that I get to build to the
journey Ripper
I love this
she's internally strong
and she has weak moments
and we'll get this together it's not
uncommon many people go through this
we're no different anybody else everyone
has something to go through this is our
time I'd like to go through it we've
been through struggles before but he
makes me feel beautiful and and a nipple
doesn't make me
a breast does not make
