Thanks to all you wonderful
Thanks to all you wonderful warriors. My feet haven't touched the ground since yesterday. Today was a grand day, just enjoying having a normal day. Hope to get my energy back one of these days and for sure, I'll be raising a glass (margarhita)?, one day this week, maybe 2 days. I'm celebrating and hope to get good news when I go thru the next few weeks of tests. Wishing the best for all of you.

I am so so happy for you! You have had quite the battle, and that you posted about crossing the finish line is such a joy and a big burst of encouragement to those following in your brave footsteps! I am grinning ear to ear, thinking abut when you first joined our family, and now? You are finished! Life After Cancer...what a beautiful, well-deserved place to be!

I know you will take care of your burned skin...I keep thinking that in a month from now,at Thanksgiving, you will have so much to give thanks for! Bless your heart! Thanks so much for giving us the best news ever!

The last couple of days have
The last couple of days have been very "normal" for me, just doing some things around the house and I finally got out in the yard and supervised my dear hubby while I had him move some plants around and plant some I had in planters before winter hits. Actually, last night we had a hard freeze with temps below 30 degrees. Whatever happened to summer, oh, I guess I was in a chemo fog all summer and it passed me by.
We went out for dinner last evening at a great mexican restaurant and I finally got my margarita. WOW! I would have ordered another one but with all the meds I take I would have wound up in a corner smiling and sleeping the night away. Its great to have my taste buds back and I'm not having much trouble with my esophagus (which was affected by the rad treatments). Once the burnt skin heals I'll be in good shape. We are planning on taking a trip to the Florida Gulf area in January if everything works out.
I may not do Facebook as I don't think there is enough privacy there. I signed up but have pretty well backed out. My kids, others of the family and a lot of friends are there and I just didn't want them to know all the details of my bc struggle. And its such a social network and I just don't think I want to spend too much time there. Here at CSN I feel like I can unload and reveal things that bother me, and be encouraged by all of you. I hope to be here more often as my energy comes back and hope I can help someone here. So many of you have set a great example for me and inspired me to continue on when the going got tough and I really appreciate all of your kind words, comfort, encouragement, thoughts and prayers on my behalf. Love and hugs to each of you.
