Maxi Drag Queen

She’s once, twice, three fifths a lady- even on heavy days! Maxi is Sydney’s drag de jour.
Flying in the face of the seven foot tall drag stereotype, this pocket rocket of a performer knows a high kick from a shimmy and gives great lip……sync.
Like Madonna and Cher, Ms Shield is better known simply as Maxi. Up close, probably more like Liberace than Cher...

MAXI’s weekly update… We are stronger than we thin MAXI’s weekly update… We are stronger than we think!  I have to admit the start of the week was Rocky, but with the patience of the team I’m getting there. The Radiation mask is an absolute journey. As I said last week, I know it is a short time, I know I need it, and I know that the staff are straight in as soon as it’s finished. But as soon as that’s locked on my head and face and around my neck, I just panic. I have been on sedation which has helped, but this week I think we turned the corner. We played Whitney Houston “Higher Love”, and I was up at Ginger’s at the Oxford Hotel watching @_cocojumbo performance, and it seemed to get me through. Somebody gonna go with the Divas, Whitney this week, made me and daughter next week, and even push it with some Celine. The poor Radiation crew will be sick of me. But they are absolute champions with patients of steel.  I’m starting to feel the side effects of radiation in my throat, just a sore throat,  some flavours are starting to  spike.  Chili and spice seems to be very very spicy at the moment. I’m just starting to get a sore throat. But mouthwashes and preventative of all constant so hopefully I’ll keep on top of it. Haven’t had to use my feeding tube yet, but I flushed my rig twice a day. The first couple of weeks was very hard with sleeping because I sleep on my stomach. But once the anchors are out, it’s become a little bit easier. Hopefully I won’t need to use my feeding tube. See if I need it almost week too, done, if you’re going through this honestly, you are much stronger than you think. The Australian Cancer team are just incredible rely on those people. They are wonderful. I love you all so much.  Love Maxi.

MAXI’s weekly update… I was considering changing t MAXI’s weekly update… I was considering changing this to “You’re stronger than you think” weekly up date… what do you think?  Anyway it’s been a tough one.  Tune went in on Monday and to be totally honest, mostly was in my head.  Procedure went very well, team went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and at ease.  Tuesday was my first radiation and chemo.  Radiation is going to be the tricky one.  I know it’s only for a short period of time, I know they will let me out as soon as it’s over, I know it has to be done but as soon as I’m locked in, I seem to panic.  For some reason my brain turns off and I can’t deal with it.  Today was better than the first time, and I’m hoping it will slowly get better.  If you are going through this…. Lean on your incredible team and don’t be embarrassed to say “I need a break” or “I’m not coping”… WE ARE STRONGER THAN WE THINK.. sending my love out to everyone.  Love Maxi ❤️🩷💜💚🩵

MAXI’s weekly update. Have had a few hurdles that MAXI’s weekly update.  Have had a few hurdles that we had to jump over this week but getting there.  Lots of appointments in Pre admission to do for next Monday, where I’m finally getting my feeding rig installed. And then Tuesday finally starting the radiation and chemo. Discovered this week also that I had a blood clot in my arm. Doctors and nurses have jumped straight onto it, straight onto medication to deal with that. So that is being dealt with as we speak. But it really is just dealing with the hurdles that come up, and you just really don’t know what’s going to happen. My chemo nurse and all my doctors have said if there’s any change at all to contact them straight away. So when I saw my arm and hand hit a bit puffy a message by chemo nurse Stacey, and said.” I know there’s no silly questions, but is this a worry?” and straight away she acted booking me into an ultrasound so you really have to have a great relationship with your team. Which are absolutely incredible. If anyone is going through this as well, you’re stronger than you think, and we’re going to beat this. Send me my love to everyone out there.. love Maxi xxx

MAXI’s weekly update…. Well I didn’t think I would MAXI’s weekly update…. Well I didn’t think I would react like that but I did and the team were absolutely incredible.  Lots of scans this week that have one up very positive and is great to start radiation on such a high note.  What did shake me up a little was the making of my radiation mask.  The mask is so important so that when you do get radiation, it goes in the right spot. And it also stops you from moving around, it also directs the radiation alot better. I didn’t think I’d be claustrophobic, but making the mask did shake me up a little. But communication with your team; constructing it and the nurses around you is so important, they let me up every time they saw me struggling, they got me water and let me take a break whenever needed. Communication is the key, and they are so amazing. They can also see, if you’re struggling. I also had two wisdom teeth and another tooth taken out, this helps your jaw bone and issues that may come up later after radiation. I also had a hearing test to make sure that my hearing is OK. Radiation is great for killing cancer, but it really shakes up every other thing around it. So having it in your neck and throat, there’s lots of things that they have to make sure I’m going to be OK and keep an eye on. I’m sending my love to everyone, especially I’m listening to going through this. You’re stronger than you know. I love you, Maxi.

“MAXI’s Weekly update”…. This week has been filled “MAXI’s Weekly update”…. This week has been filled with tests. CAT scan and a PET scan, they all look at the tumor and the cancer and see how the chemo over the last three cycles have worked. And now my radiation doctor and my cancer doctors will plot a course for the next seven weeks. Radiation on this throat is full on, say swallowing and eating may be an issue sort of.  I’m having my feeding tube put in on Monday, as I said I’m a bit nervous about that but I’ve spoken to so many people.  I’m feeling so much better about it also. I have my mould done tomorrow, this helps when you get your radiation that you don’t move around and it gets to the place that it should be.  Apart from that had a good week, very tired and still.  But learning to work with that my day-to-day life. If you are going through this, you’re stronger than you think.. sending my love out to absolute everyone.  Love Maxi xx

MAXI’s Weekly updates. So I had my last chemo tre MAXI’s Weekly updates.  So I had my last chemo treatment and this 21 day cycle on Monday. I’m lucky once again with no major side effects. Just exhausted, and my knees were a bit sore today.  You can look into that, however you wish. Over the next couple of weeks I have appointment with my radiation doctor. I have lots of scans and tests, to see how everything’s going with the tumor. Then I go and see the cancer panel of Drs; then they decide the plan for the next 6 to 7 weeks. Which is radiation five days a week and chemo once a week.  On 3 November, I’m having a feeding tube put in, radiation on the throat sometimes swells and makes it hurt to eat, so that’s just in case that happens and I’m able to get nutrients into my body. That’s a little full on, but if it’s what I need, it’s what I need!  Thank you so much for your love and support. If you’re going through this as well, we’re all with you, you’re stronger than you know. Love Maxi.

HUGE WAKE UP CALL!! “MAXI’s WEEKLY UPDATE. Well HUGE WAKE UP  CALL!! 
“MAXI’s WEEKLY UPDATE.
Well this week started with a big one.  Drs and nurses have told me from the start.. “Listen to you body, don’t over do it”… and I’ve tried to listen.  Come from a relatively active person to now, exhausted instantly out of the blue has been had and during moving, frustrating.  Last Friday I had a few things I had to do, chemist, blood tests and meet friends for dinner.. I uber where I can but decided that it was a glorious day and would walk home (it was a hotter than expected day and the blood tests took a little more than expected)… so got home very hot.  By the time Saturday came around my body was saying “slow down, you’re doing too much.  But also had a few things on, that I slowly did.. but should have “listened to my body”… Sunday and my throat was swollen and I was exhausted… I HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND LISTEN TO MY BODY.. Straight away I contacted professionals and was on top of it.. but lesson learnt!! 
THEN… Monday comes around and my pic lines decide to play their own game, so where removed and port line scheduled for Tuesday.  Now if anyone is going through this also… it seems scary and there is lots of “pompous and circumstance” around the procedure BUT it’s really ok, nurses and drs and incredible and very caring, it seems like a lot, but total pain free and easy procedure.  I think the scariest thing about it is the disposable underwear they make you wear (I was post in stories). I’m a little bruised but totally pain free today, and device is under the skin making all chemo treatments going forward so much easy.  Sending all my love out to everyone, especially those going through this at the same time… sending an even bigger MAXI HUG AND KISS TO YOU.  #maxishield #rupauldragrace #worldofwonder #cancer #cancerrecovery #dragqueen
“MAXI’s weekly update”… I didn’t think a week woul “MAXI’s weekly update”… I didn’t think a week would be so big. We completed the Drag room. Jacqui and I spent three days and I think 5000 garbage bags. I was absolutely ruthless. Even Jacqui was saying.” are you sure you don’t wanna keep that?” I had some mild salt to fix last week. My body was aching and an upset stomach. But that was just only a couple of days. I’m not sure whether or not that was mixed in with the move. Moving into just so stressful but we had it in the keys and we said goodbye to Palmer Lane after 14 years. It wasn’t really saying goodbye to our house, it was more of a community.  So many friends after that long and they were absolutely amazing. But we’re just down the road so we’ll make sure that we visit them as much as we can.  Sending my love to everyone out there. If you’re going through treatment also be strong.

Before all this craziness went down. I was actuall Before all this craziness went down. I was actually in Edinburgh Scotland as a part of the most fabulous parody play “Fountainlakes in Lockdown”. Edinburgh fringe really has to be experienced to believed.  The whole city so ALIVE, it’s actually almost overwhelming.  EVERY THING IS FRINGE!  I can’t say enough out the cast of @fountainlakeslive just wonderful.  Thomas, Art and Scott, helped this “newbie” all the way. (At times I would just stand there in a daze). Although we were working our foamies off, we were also laughed all the way.  Here is just a little snippet of my Edinburgh Fringe experience.  I can’t wait to join the cast again In January in Perth.

Maxi’s weekly catch up! What are we going! We mo Maxi’s weekly catch up!  What are we going!  We moved on the weekend which is a monumental couple of days. I can help for 10 minutes and then have to sit down for 40. Thank goodness David is an absolute superhero.  He was literally putting stuff in a buggy and walking down the street for two days. Still working on the move but fully moved into the new place which is fabulous.  Jacqui and I’ve been working on the Drag room for two days and should finish up tomorrow. .  Lots of throwing out and culling.  I have my second chemo on Monday, and I truly believe it’s your love that you’re sending me that I’m not getting any side effects. My jaw is really sore the last couple of days, but that could just be a little reaction to the drugs I’m on.  My nurse wasn’t too worried about it which was great.  Like everything slow and steady, and we will get there.  Sending all my love out there to everyone. Love Maxi.
