unpacking your bags for survivorship
Two days after my radiation treatment completed, I boarded a plane for Canada! Within a week, we are moved in: pets, furnishings, cars, all in one place. And my kids will be here this weekend! Yea!
This is DAY ELEVEN of my survivorship, I am cancer-free, one of the girls in pink, just in time for Breast Cancer Awareness month. It was great see so many celebrations all over North America, particularly NFL players sporting pink for the cause.
Even more special, my friends Robin and Glenda honored me by running the Komen Race for the Cure in Houston, Texas! Texas friends kick ass! I wish I could have participated here, but radiation leaves you with a whole new kind of jet lag.
And, after 28 days of treatments, I have to fight the impulse to crawl into my microwave oven every morning! Too, I'm trying to relax, get off my worry-g0-round and enjoy the people I love.
Onward!
