Today, 2 weeks and a day after my bilateral mastectomies, I trotted along side my horse at the barn. I had an endocervical polyp removed yesterday, a 2.5 cm ? on my liver (mri pending wednesday) and a 3 cm ? on one ovary (still waiting for further work-up). But today I trotted next to my old friend Frosty and smiled.

    Wow!
    Good for you!!!
    Keep up that pace and you'll keep your spirits high.
    BUT, remember to rest when you need to as well (that's always been the hardest part for me to remember).
    (I'm sure Frosty enjoyed it too).

    With love,

    Nice days are good!
    prv,
    Wow! That's amazing that you had that much energy. It took me three weeks just to make the effort to crawl out of bed and be somewhat pleasant to my family. Trotting next to a horse! You really are a survivor! I'm impressed. :)

    PS
    I'm sure your horse enjoyed your company, too.
