Just thought I'd put a pic of Helena up, if anyone is interested. *smiles*
Many of you may not recognize me as I am from the 2002 "crop"... but I do try to stay in touch now and then and I think of you all, often!
Be well all!

    Marty,

    Helena is a gorgeous baby! Sounds like you are creating for yourself the life you've always wanted. I couldn't be happier for you. Happy 2 yr anniversary!

    All my best,
    Susan

    Well, Rutaf, that depends upon what you want... I have normally used the search feature and typed in what I wanted to find out, using more words to narrow your search down.
    I have included the web address you can cut and paste into your browser so you don't have to use the search, thought it might be helpful.
    Otherwise, you would put the person's "handle", such as "Rutaf", into the search and click the web pages spot, then search... I think they have some sort of faq or help page... it's been a long time since I have played that much in here!
    If you need more help, I am sure one of us can help!

    Thank you Susan and Cathy!

    We are having so much fun!! Of course, Helena adds a new wrinkle to that niggling in the back of my mind... "will I be around to see her go to...." and a million things fly through my head while I look at her with tears in my eyes.
    But you know what?? As I've said before, we had no guarantees before the cancer. Poof, anyone can be gone at any given moment... just grab the ball and run. Have fun right now!

    That we do! *grin*

    Be well and hugs right back!

    Congratulations on your new baby! Helena is beautiful. I'm so happy for you. You seem to have moved on with your life. I have a similar pathology to yours, and I'm about 8 months out from all treatment. I'm trying hard to life my fully, being thankful for each day. My daughter is 8 years old and I'm 40. I wish you lots of continued good health and happiness.

    Thank you Jade!
    Well, I still have my moments of worry, don't we all?
    With so much going on, I don't know that I've moved on, rather, it seems I've been swept away with the tide! *wink*
    Hopefully you are starting to get some strength and energy back now... it took me a good year but then I got pregnant.. so I don't know yet what my new "normal" is!!

    May your new life bring you as much joy and happiness as mine has for me.

    Enjoy! Have fun! Be well!

    Hi Marty:

    Just read your latest update and am so very happy for you!

    Helena is such a precious gift and she's absolutely adorable! But then you know that already. She's just stretching those little arms out as if to hug the world! My kind of girl. LOL

    You are proof positive that we CAN have an even better life post bc. We can thrive, have great joy and understand/appreciate the wonderful gifts in our lives while continuing to give of ourselves. It's enough to just lift us a solid two inches off the floor as we walk, isn't it?!!!!

    Thanks for being you. For being brave, positive and resourceful but most of all thanks for sharing the wonder with us!

    Love, light and laughter,
    Ink
