    Yes, Sam you are dancing with NED. Not sure what your favorite tune is, but put on those dancing shoes and take a long, twirl around the floor with one of our favorite guys, NED. And may you and he be together forver.

    BTW, Sam I don't know if you
    BTW, Sam I don't know if you ever watch CBS Sunday Morning ( I try not to miss it, and TIVO it just in case!) but this week I thought of you! They had a segment on Women who ride Bikes! Biker Babes, Cycle Chicks, Harley H...nah nevermind! LOL It was a great piece~ Harley Davidson's granddaughter is an avid biker, and they also showed how so many women are customizing their bikes, so awesome!

    Glad you and NED can bike together...tho his feet never get tired of dancing, it's great to feel the open air on our faces now and again too!

    Hugs,

    seeing alot of stories on female bikers
    In March Harley dealerships had "Garage Parties" for women. I learned how to pick up a tipped motorcycle. It was alot of fun! May is women biker's month so there will be alot of events between now and then.

    Neds & Warriors
    I guess there is a question about what to call yourself after treatment. Some women do not want to use the word surviver as they feel it is disrespectful of the ones who passed or war vets, you survied a plane crash etc so they use the Neds word instead. They are also more comfortable with the truth we live with which is there is no cure and no guarantee of not having a reoccurance. So they say they are a NED which is no evidence of disease (at this time). And it is also a reminder to all our love ones when they expect you to just get on with your life. I personally like the word Warrior. We are warriors, strong and brave.
