    Hi Yvette,

    Keep that amazing attitude no matter what! So inspiring. Thanks for sharing with us.

    Wanted to share this:

    "In the midst of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer" (Albert Camus, 1913-1960, French author and philosopher)

    Wishing you, at a minimum, 43 more HAPPY BIRTHDAYS!

    Love, light and laughter,

    Thank You all for your blessings and well wishes. I had dinner with my family and praised God all day. I have to admit, I was a little scared that this may be my last birthday.. If it is, i'll go out fighting. The chemo sucks!!! Of course. all joints inflammed. and fat from the steroids. i know it's vain but darn do i have to be fat on top of everything else (lol). whatever,... i have to learn to do fat well.
    again, God bless you all. You will be hearing more from me. And, I am a good listener if anyone needs to talk/email, whatever. Yvette
