I met one of my buddy's Gail & we spoke with Lisa

I think this is awesome!
I think this is awesome! How far apart do all of you live? I may have to see if we can arrange a southern ontario get together - mags, Tina + I; anyone else?

It was great!
Yes, I loved our visit! It was so great to meet and be able to see each other when we talked and laughed. We are so lucky to live so close, about an hour an a half. It felt like a long time friend that I was catching up with. And then to have Lisa on the phone too, it just felt so at home, like Raquel said. Like 3 friends talking and visiting and laughing. Raquel, thank your for your talk on healthy eating and supplements. There is so much to research and learn and sometimes I just feel lost with what to do. Because, at least for me, it's what my body can tolerate and digest effectively because of the surgeries and chemo side effects. I seem to be eating the exact opposite of how I ate pre cancer (which used to be whole grains, veges, fruits,etc...) and I bet my cancer likes it. .....ok straying.....Lisa I can't wait to meet you!

Som happy you got to meet face to face! A bit of irony here, I finally get to meet one of my fellow CSN members next month but I am traveling thousand of miles and another continent to do so!

who?
Now you've got me curious... who are you going to meet up with on another continent, if you don't mind me asking? The people who come to my mind right away who live far away are Sonia in England, Pepe in Spain, Tara in Hong Kong, and Ron in Australia... any of those?
(sorry to those of you whom I forgot who live outside North America)

Lisa

You are all going to have such a great time! It's just like seeing a friend you havent been with for a long time. Has that I'm home, family type feeling. I'm so happy for you guys.

Gail

Thanks Gail,
You will all
Thanks Gail,
You will all hear the details from both Sonia and I when I get back to the states! I recently put skype mobile on my phone so that before I leave the US, I can call her to firm up plans to meet in London. I have never heard her voice and this is exciting too!
