in Breast Cancer #1
Thanks for all the support on the previous post. Each summer a small group of parents who have children with Down syndrome going swimming on Monday nights. I have not made it one night this summer, either sick or getting a transfusion or it was canceled. My hubby took our son once. They call me every Monday and ask if I will make it....today I am still not 100% but after I finish this I am out the door....sccccrrrrreeeww you cancer you can't take away my fun and spending time with some of my favorite people. It seems silly that something so silly and simple can cause such tears of joy and fear. But I know it'll be fine. I will update later!! So glad to get out of my "head" for awhile and see some fresh faces!! Thanks ladies.

    it was good....
    My son was a little pistol and hard to hold on to at the pool but the other parents are good at passing the kids around and taking them down slides, etc. I must admit it was exhausting and showed me I need to be getting a little more physical activity, even if only starting a few minutes a day. It was good to get out and see other people for a change. I am glad I went :)

    My hat's off to you !!
    I remember how much it took out of me to just walk around the block. But
    I preferred physical tiredness over going insane (:
    At least I could sleep that one off.

    Love,
    Ayse

    Glad to hear you got out and had some fun
    Sometimes little spots are just what the doctor ordered. It's amazing how much something little can mean when you've been through so much. This is not the time to work on your bucket list but finding some little things that you enjoy is always good. Just keep hanging in there!
