4/29/2008 will forever be embedding in my brain! Date of diagnosis...you never forget where you were or what you were doing. I happened to be recovering from surgery, laying in bed. The phone rang (it was around 2:00) and the surgeon said (in a very quiet voice) "you have cancer".
My journey thorough cancer was a walk in the park compared to other stories I have heard recently. Just having the love and support from my wonderful husband made this easier to take on. I look at women who had to lose their breast completely! :( Here I am bitching that my hair is too short. I am a bit ashamed and will not complain about that again, ok maybe I will but, seriously I feel so fortunate to have come out of this crap a better and much stronger woman!

Life has thrown me some major curve balls and at the time I never knew how I managed to get through them. I am happier in my life today than ever and if took cancer to make that happen, well it was worth every minute of it.
Here is a photo of all the SUPERWOMEN I had the pleasure of meeting this past weekend at the Survivor retreat! We promised to keep in touch and stay connected and I sure hope that holds true. There girls humble me and I will never forget the time we spent together. It really touched my heart :)
