My new experience

I usually do not post pictures. Last week I was away from home for the first time since my diagnosis.As a part of this training I have had a new experience - fly simulation. If you are interested I posted a picture on my expression page.

For the past several months we have lost Deb, Heidi and Lisa (Moopy) and many of our CSN sisters are in very difficult situations. I know many feel lost and depressed. While I have been praying MamaG and many others I would like to put a smile on your face.
Please go and take a look. You also can read my profile and understand it has been long journey and fight is still on ( I am on Zoladex for monthly shots and having lymphedema). But despite tiers and sorrow there are funny and happy times we all are living for.

    Молодца!
    Way to go, New Flower!

    I'll bet some of your co-workers were probably scared of the simulation.. but YOU -- if you can face down cancer, chemo, radiation, lymphedema, and monthly Zoladex shots...hell, you can face anything! Keep flying, girl!

    What an awesome experience that must have been. I think quite of few of us have dreamed of flying before. You did it! I bet it was fun. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you all for your comments
    Thank you all for your comments. I hope some day you will try too.
    TraciLA is correct. 1/3 of my co-workers did cancel and not fly including several pretty 30- years old girls with beautiful long hair.
