Hello Pink Sisters

in Breast Cancer #1
It's been a while since I've been on CSN. I do communicate with a lot of the gals on FB, but have a hard time getting on to CSN. This evening has been a breeze-cant believe I havent been knocked off yet.

I always think about you gals. Heard from Sunrae the other day and must get back to her. I see that Cypress Cynthia continues to keep everyone informed with latest news on BC and MAJW is doing better. It's also good to see Vicki-Sam, Traci, and the rest of you wonderful warriors. I love that many of your avatars have not been changed. To name a few, Alexis F, Ritzy, Survivor 09, Angie 2U, Diane BC,Megan M, Noel, Kristin N, Kylez and Debi M, they were familiar and so comforting while I was going thru treatment. I really miss you guys and want to thank ALL of you sisters for the wonderful support you gave to me and continue to give daily.

I get blood draws and yearly mammo next week and a repeat colonoscopy. I've been having problems with blood loss thru AVM'S in the colon. Had a colonoscopy in May and opted to wait and redo it in August rather than having surgery.

I started working for Premier Designs Jewelry earlier this year and am having a great time with it. I love the jewelry and needed something part time to get me moving again. My husband works the shows with me and that is a great help. I pace myself because I still do get tired but enjoy what I'm doing. I rarely make my own jewelery anymore, it is a bit difficult with my lymphedema. I don't get to see my 4 grandchildren enough, but am thrilled everytime we get together. The years sure do fly. This coming January I'll be turning 70. Yikes I was 66 when all this nonsense began. Hugs to all my Pinks.
Sandy

    I just did change my avatar Sandy! lol Do you like it? I've gotten messages from some of the pink sisters that they really laughed when they saw it. I hope you do too.

    Wishing you good luck with your upcoming tests! Wanting only good news!

    Working with the jewelry sounds very nice and I bet you are good at it!

    Hi Sandy!
    So glad to hear from you again. First, I want to wish you the best results on your mammo and colonoscopy. I know how nerve-racking the tests are and the waiting for results as I am awaiting yet another breast biopsy result myself right now.

    How fun to be working on jewelry--do you have it online on a website or anything? Would love to see it.

    Have fun with the grandkids--I just had my first one 3 weeks ago (Lincoln Max) and he is the new center of my universe!

    Take good care.

    Hugs, Renee

    I'm happy to see you posting
    I'm happy to see you posting here too! And I can vouch for the jewelery...I received a lovely pair of earrings this week to lift my spirits. But I too would love to know if you have a website?

    Let us know what happens with the tests. And I'm sending all my best energy for good results.

    Hugs,

    Linda

    Wow haven't been booted off
    Wow haven't been booted off yet. I feel so much love from all of you. Thank you!! CC yes, Troy is thriving and will be 2 on Aug 30. He is a big boy and just a love.

    It was good to hear from you gals. Renee I hope all goes well with your biopsy. Diane your elephant is uplifting, and Nancy I think of you often. Now that my son has moved back to Florida there will no longer be any trips to Greensboro. Linda as always praying for you, this beast has been exceptionally unkind to you.

    I rarely make my own jewelry anymore, but do it on occasion as I did for Linda. Renee PRemier does have a website and you can view some of the jewelry there, however purchases are only made thru jeweler reps. I'm enjoying the creativity and having fun, working at my own pace. Website is Premierdesigns.com

    Hugs and prayers to all my kindreds.

    Spoke to Sunrae the other day. She is having a heck of a time with her health. She is currently going thru rehab therapy for discs in her neck. She also had a stent put in for her heart last December. She has many medical issues but her atitude is always up and sweet. :o)

    I love the Premier Designs Jewelry
    Sandy wore a beautiful necklace when we met for dinner back in the spring. I just absolutely had to have it and ordered it from her. I get compliments every time I wear it.

    Sandy, good luck with your test this week. I'll be thinking about you and staying in touch.

    xoxo,
    Jean

    So good to hear from you. Sounds like you are busy and happy. Hoping the colonscopy turns out fine. Always so nice to hear from the "old" gals. Wow, seventy next January. You do not look it at all. Keep popping in and letting us know how you are doing.
