We are off to Disney World this week! We are celebrating my 25th anniversary since I was first diagnosed and also Katherine's birthday.

When I was first diagnosed, Katherine was four and I missed her birthday party because I was in the hospital with Stage 3 IDC, having my first mastectomy. My little sister stepped in and hosted her party because invitations were sent and everything was planned. I watched her birthday party on video :-(

I remember praying that I could live until she was 8 or 10. Lol, she is now 29! So, hang in there newbies, because there is hope.

So Danny, Katherine and I are celebrating in Disney. We can't wait!

    You go girl!!!!!
    It's been too long since we've made the journey and I'm suffering from withdrawal! I have to be in Orlando in July for a meeting but am not sure I can stand the heat to trek over to Disney in July. BUT I've love to try and touch base with anyone in the area while I'm there. Our meeting is at Gaylord Palms. Anybody?

    Mickey, Here We Come!
    Nancy - Soarin' at Epcot is awesome! Went on it last year and can't wait to share it with the family. FastPass for sure, as we waited over an hour last time to get on.
    Denise - we belong to the Hilton Grand Vacations Club and are staying at HGVC on International Drive this year; last year we were at HGVC Parc Soleil. Both are fabulous!

    how true!
    I live close enough to Disney that we can make it a day trip or be more extravagant and stay on property. You are so right, the world can be crumbling down, but a little time at
    Disney does the trick to make things feel right.
