Diane, crap! Rant on, girlfriend! I opened a cab in your honor.
Agree, with Eve. You have survived so much this year!
Ok, so any of you girls on Facebook? Would love to connect with you there, too. Maybe start a private group there? My chemo group did that and it is so much easier. I feel even closer you gals where I feel like we made some real friendship connections since January. pm me if you want to connect privately. I am a bit paranoid about putting my real name in BCO that can be searched publicly. Think about it.
Love you,
Ann

Thank you Ann! I'm on FB. I just sent you my info. I think a private group is a great idea. I don't ever post on FB about BC.
Any of you ladies who want to connect with me, please send me an IM.0 -
I rarely post about fb. I will friend you and figure out how to create the private fb group!

Diane, I just read your post and am sooooo sorry your dealing with those awful side effects. It will be interesting to know what your MO will say about the decision. I truly hope you feel better emotionally and physically. We've all had to make tough decisions; no judgement and just want you to know that I'm thinking the best for you.

Hi all,
Well, lots going on. Just as I was packing for my retreat I got a call from my brother who said that mom fell and was hospitalized. She has a compression fracture and was / is in a lot of pain, poor thing! I wasn't going to go, but everyone including my DH, my nurse, and my brother said I should go. Besides I already had the spot reserved and it was too late to cancel out.
I just got home last night and I'm so glad I went. It was just amazing!! It's hard to describe the experience. I spent 3 days sitting in a circle of new friends - all survivors, of course. The sessions were led by 3 facilitators who were also survivors. Over the weekend, I made some very deep and powerful connections. What was amazing is that while we did talk about our feelings A LOT, we talked very little about what stage, grade, type of cancer we had, etc. The sessions were condensed into 3 days from what is normally a 9 week course, jam packed with tips and techniques, plus everyone shared their stories - some more than others, lol! It was really life changing for me. I hope that the January surgery sisters can all meet face to face someday. It is one thing to connect online with words, but quite another to meet in person.
As for mom, she was discharged on Friday and is still in a lot of pain. She was able to get up yesterday and make short trips to the bathroom, sit up and eat a little bit. Please send her your prayers and healing wishes.
Oh and by the way - I'd love to meet up on facebook. Please PM me with your email addresses so we can connect. Great idea, Ann - you read my mind!
Love,
Mary

Hi all,
Thanks for asking, I had reconstruction surgery on Wednesday, slept most of the following days, fell in a bit of a black hole yesterday, had a fight with my hubby (I have become such a moody bitch, thanks chemo, Tamoxifen and f*** cancer). I am feeling okay now, chest looks fine, I hope that's it for some time (aside from the Herceptin). I would love to connect via a private group on FB, but don't want to make the breast cancer public, as only very few of my friends/family know about it and I would prefer to leave it that way as long as possible. I will PM you, Mary, with my personal e-mail (and Diane has it anyway.)
Diane, I am so sorry to hear that you are having such a crappy time, between your body hurting, the Tamoxifen SEs, your son's school issues and so on. Seems like it never ends, WTF happened to us all? Sending virtual hugs, and I really hope that we can meet in person soon. I am dreading to start Tamoxifen again in a few days, as the hot flashes have subsided in the last few days, so pleasant.
Mary, sending healing wishes to your mother. Good that you did enjoy the retreat. It sounds like a great place to be.
I don't have more to say, I don't want to be ungrateful, but I feel like I am floating right now, and I want to change my life, but don't know what and how, I feel like the joy has disappeared out of my life in these last few months, and I am trying to let it back in, but not sure how. Even my sex life sucks (sorry for TMI). I love my children and my husband, but sometimes all I want to do is to crawl in bed and sleep (I never really take a break though and just do that). I don't feel that I have depression, but perhaps I do? I don't want to take more pills, I just want to feel halfways normal again. End of rant. Hopefully you guys are doing better.
Hugs, Alexandra

Dear Alexandra,
I can relate to everything you said. Not depressed, but no direction. As to joy, I try to find it in the very smallest of things. From my dog jumping as high as she can in order to grab a treat from my hand...too funny....to the unexpected text from my son yesterday morning asking if I wanted to go to a HUGE antiques fair....awhile ago I would have said no....but I said yes and we had a blast! I try to do stuff....like tear out the planter that my idiot of a neighbor ran over yesterday...jerk.... JERK!! I didn't stop there...I dug out 3 dead bushes, transplanted a Lantana and hung a Staghorn fern on a tree. HA! triumph. Every time I do laundry I practically hug my dated washer and dryer...ditto with my dishwasher...such wonderful appliances.....truly grateful that they are still performing. So I look for the little joys right now. Like reading posts from all of you. We'll get our mojo back, just might be a little different.
Now in danger of TMI. although I don't think after all we have been through nothing should be off limits. The sex life issue. Get this, 3 weeks ago I was talking to my PCP, I told him that my libido was nonexistent. Not an easy thing to divulge to begin with....he laughed...yup effing laughed. No libido???? That was his response...like I was a 2headed monster. Sooooooooo trying to keep it light I told him that my husband is 14 years younger than me (he was amused by that too, he did stop short of calling me a cougar....good thing, I would have decked him).....Wow Wow Wow...his response was that my husband was going to cheat on me, because that is what men do. WHAT! Itold my husband last night what the doc said and Nathan was horrified. There is no way in heck he would cheat on me, ever, never, no how no way. new PCP is on the horizon. For sure.
Back to the problem....I've done a bit of research...my body just isn't interested. So could be a lack of testosterone....yay! Another hormone to take. I am getting nasty zits on my chin, concurs with taking a new blood pressure med that works on one's adrenal glands who , being post menopausal are the glands that are left that secret progesterone, estrogen and testosterone...link? more research needed. The whole thing baffels me. I depend on docs to help me out....and I get very little back. It has been suggested that we "practice" getting back in touch with our body....yeah, I have time for that....lol
I HAD an appointment with the gyno last week but somehow that got screwd up.....so no answers here either. I am taking a break from the medicos until March.
I don't think I am helping....but just know you aren't alone.
Glad your surgery went well........rock on with the new foobs.

Hi Miss Mary,
Your retreat sounds like it was just the ticket! Thank goodness for a family the has your mom's back and yours also. Bravo! Would love to hear some more details of the retreat if you would like to share.
I still would like to meet ....big hug fest! yes?
Hope your mom is feeling better.
*If you all go on facebook....check out my daughter=in=laws page. Koi G*******sky....she has pics up of the Marine Corps ball.......good looking couple.....loooooove her dress.
Love to all
Eve
edited to change Koi's last name...have to be careful......ya know.

Eve, thanks, you are right. And I am grateful for the small things: I took a long walk earlier today and so appreciated the fall sun, the colorful leaves and the little birds playing. Now a HUGE swarm of crows is crowing at the sunset in the tree behind our house, not sure if I appreciate that so much, they crap a lot ... I do love hanging out with my kids. And usually, I am so busy, so I am trying to enjoy the slowing down for the moment: I practiced counting money with my girl, tying shoes and I dressed her up for a birthday party, complete with pigtails and hair clips (I am not very girly, and that's the first time her hair is long enough to even attempt a hair do, so she loved that a lot). Got Nutcracker tickets for the whole fam (my daughter's best friend is performing), and will go to a holiday concert with my son, who plays the violin and wanted to go with me. So, it's pretty much all good. And, I am fairly pain-free right now, only my neck is stiff from sleeping on my back and, the foobs look pretty good I must say. I knew my PS was a pro, so I totally trusted him, but still, you never know. I am sure I will find my direction again, it's just a bit weird now. I feel so guilty about the "relationships" issue, but I just don't want to, it has not happened before in all the 17 years we have known each other, I always enjoyed it. Luckily he is a bit older and wiser, but I need to get this fixed, soon. Got to make a gyno appointment, just hate having yet another medical appointment. Okay, enough ranted. Back to making dinner now, kids are coming home soon and will be hungry.
And, I am thankful for you, ladies, even though I was often absent from this board, but knowing that there are women out there who understand what I am going through, and with whom I can hope, cry and laugh, has been so important, I can't put it in words. I am reading on here quite often, just did not often post.
Hugs to you,
Alexandra

Ok, I created a private fb group called January sisters. Diane and Eve I added you to it...hoping I did it correctly!
PM me and I will add others. Mary, I sent you a reply to your PM with my fb name and will add you or go to January sisters and I think it will send me a request to add you.
Alexandra, completely understand your request for privacy. Sending healing hugs your way.

Ok, speaking on that I don't have anything more than what's already been said, except "Sex? What's that?" Eve, OMG - What The F----k is up with your doc? So glad you are walking on that one!
Here's something that will help make you laugh:
A couple, both age 78, went to a sex therapist's office. The doctor asked, "What can I do for you?"
The man said, "Will you watch us have sex?"
The doctor looked puzzled, but agreed.
When the couple finished, the doctor said, "There's nothing wrong with the way you have sex," and charged them $50.
This happened several weeks in a row. The couple would make an appointment, have sex with no problems, pay the doctor, then leave.
Finally, the doctor asked, "Just exactly what are you trying to find out?"
"We're not trying to find out anything," the husband replied.
"She's married and we can't go to her house. I'm married and we can't go to my house. The Holiday Inn charges $90. The Hilton charges $108. We do it here for $50...and I get $43 back from Medicare.0 -
ROTFLMAO!!!!0 -
Eve - there is so much to tell about the retreat. It was a combination of a support group and educational, research-based information on mind-body techniques for tapping into your own inner healing mechanisms. That all sounds pretty deep, I know, and it was! There was crying, laughing, playing, meditating, and just a lot of connecting. We did lots of guided exercises like for example, imagery, and learning how to reframe negative attitudes. Lots of wisdom shared in the form of quotes, books, and other women's stories. We only skimmed the HUGE workbook we were given, but the best part was sharing the experience with other women. If you want to call me sometime I'd be happy to talk more about it - it's just too much to cover here!

how's tomorrow?
Nate gets home late.
Would love to hear more.
love ya

Mary - hilarious. Thanks for making me laugh.
Sex? I wish! It's been over a year with no hope in sight. I was hoping to get my referral for my tattoos yesterday, but my PS says I'm not ready. I have to wait until the scars turn from pink to white, so go back in 3 month. So much for dating in January.
On the up side, I can feel myself feeling better in terms of my emotions. The tamoxifen is leaving my system.
Finally, I need all of you to pray for my friend Leslie, who found lumps in her breast and sees the MO today to have it checked out. She had BMX 13 years. All I could think when she told me was please God, not this beautiful woman! She says it just feels surreal. I'm frightened for her.
Well...best get myself going so I'm not late to work.
Love you ladies.

Diane, sending good vibes to your friend, how scary. I am getting back on Tamoxifen tomorrow, back on the sweat and bitch rollercoaster. Got a really bad cold in addition to my hurting chest, makes coughing especially pleasant. I am soooo tired of hurting, but I should be grateful for the wonderful day I had. Hugs to all.
Alexandra

prayers on the way, Diane!

Well, my friend's MO has ordered an MRI, so hopefully we'll know more soon. She sounds strong, and knows the drill, but my heart just aches at the thought or her having to go through any more of this.
Alexandra - Goof luck with the Tamox. Hopefully the mood swings will level off soon! It is not right that you have a cold while recovering from surgery. Please get some rest and feel better!

Hi everyone
Haven't posted on here for a while, but have been reading along. I am going to try to connect with January sisters on FB, if I can't, I'll pm you Ann.
I had a wonderful time in NY. I did the whole tourist thing in the city, and had lots of good family time. Then about 10 days after I got home, my older brother went to the ER for what they thought was a sinus infection that wasn't responding to the antibiotics. They did a CT scan, and airlifted him to a larger, better hospital. He had a cancerous brain tumor. They scheduled a biopsy about 3 days later, but when they went in, they were able to remove the whole tumor. He is doing well now, and will start radiation within the next two weeks. No chemo mentioned at this time.
Maybe "glad" isn't the right word, but I am relieved to hear some of you are also having problems readjusting to life post cancer. My surgeon has not spoken about reconstruction yet, so I end up wearing a bra 24/7 because of the pouches under my arms. If I don't keep them compressed, I have a lot of pain.
I am also very bored, yet sit here day after day without doing much about it.
Re the TMI topic, our sex life ended years before my husband passed. The meds I was on ( depression and thyroid) destroyed my libido completely, and DH's diabetes took away his ability. We used to joke that we would be fine if we were opposite. If he had the ability, and I had the desire, things would have been great. Tried several options thru several Drs, but nothing worked.
Mary- it is really scary hearing about you friend finding lumps after a BMX- I never realized that was possible.

Diane,
So sorry to hear about Leslie. What a pain. The MRI will reveal the problem, while scary the lumps could be scar tissue from encapsulation from the implants. I have that lump and it turned out to be nothing to worry about, so I am wishing with all my heart the same will be true for her.
Good that the effects of the Tamox are receding, now to heal that knee and hip and get back to TKD!!!
Alexandra,
good luck with the tamox. I hope you do well on it and the SE's aren't too bad. Crappy colds, they come at "just" the right time...:P feel better.
ANNE!!! helloooooooooooooooooo,
Love hearing from you!
You have had such a whirlwind of activity in the past year, maybe boredom is just what you need.
Wow the sinus infection your brother had really brings back memories fro me. My husband Rob was treated for sinus infection also and it turned out it was a brain tumor. hmmmmmmm
If you need help with anything in that regard let me know. I have a million hours of research under the belt on brain tumors, so I may be of some help. The docs will probably have your brother on steroids....watch out....they can really cause one to be very nasty....not the patients fault....but scary none the less. I am here for you if you need me. Been there done that.
Nothing much going on here...been cold as heck in the mornings.....yeah I know 38 degrees is nothing...but I live in Florida for heaven's sake...lol
Love you ladies,
Eve

Thanks Eve- we have all realized how comforting it is to know someone who has been where you are. We agreed that my sister would be our main contact, rather than all of us always calling Bill & Noreen. Unfortunately, she still lives in the 70's and prefers not to know anything. She lost a beautiful 4bed 2 bath home because she owed less than $30,000 in taxes.although all 3 of us siblings told her we knew about the situation, she kept insisting she had it under control until I got a call from her daughter 2 years ago New Years Eve saying to call her on her cell because she had lost the house and was staying with her son. All that to tell you that when she called to tell me Bill had not only been admitted to the hospital, he had been airlifted to a better one, she never used the words "tumor, biopsy, melanoma or cancer". After talking to her for two days with only vague answers, the night before he was due to have surgery, I called my cousin, who is very much one of our siblings. She couldn't believe how little info I had gotten, and said the local emergency room had diagnosed it as a cancerous brain tumor before they air lifted him. We were very blessed that it was located where it was and they were able to remove the whole thing pretty easily.
I am confused though that they diagnosed it as a melanoma immediately, but are still biopsying it. . Isn't melanoma a Dx already? Also , I know he will be getting radiation, but have heard nothing about steroids.
In other news, I am meeting a friend today to go to a movie and dinner. Then tomorrow is my son's non-profit organization's Thanksgiving celebration for a local group home. Next weekend, my 9 year old GD is performing in a concert to open the holiday season in our neighborhood on Fri night, Sat, again, my son's group is holding a basketball tournament to raise money, then Sun is my GS's birthday party. I will be flying back to Ga either Sun evening or Mon because I have check ups with my Onc and BS that Tues and Wed.
So I guess my life isn't boring, it is just the day to day that can be empty.

Anne,
So sorry to hear about your brother .... and the issues with communication - makes it so much harder. I'm kind of going through the same thing with mom. She fell and sustained a compression fracture, so is in a lot of pain. Plus her cognitive condition is rapidly going downhill. I'm having a hard time communicating with my older brother who is mom's POA and medical agent. We have such different personalities and different ways of thinking and approaching solutions to problems. He is inexperienced when it comes to all things medically related, dealing with doctors, etc. And I of course have way too much experience in that arena, so you can imagine what it's been like. Many times when we're talking I get too emotional because he pushes my buttons and I just HATE that! I get so frustrated because he always seems to say NO to what I say or doubts what I ahve to say. I feel like he does not like to listen to me, his younger sister, and even though I am right most of the time of course, lol, he remains skeptical no matter what. That's basically his mode of operation - the dial is always on "be skeptical, don't act right away if at all". He only realizes he is wrong when it's too late. Very sad for my mother since he is in charge of her care. We're hoping she will recover, but things are kind of touch and go.
On the bright side, Anne - you sound very busy with family and fun events. So nice to have that diversion!
Alexandra - Great to hear that the foobs turned out and that you are happy with the results.
BTW, I'd love to have a little girl to do girly things! I was a tomboy growing up, but still loved to play with dolls and play "house" and all that stuff. Fun!
Eve - sorry, I didn't mean to ignore your post above. I've been with mom all week and offline. Still would love to talk though.
Sending healing energy to all who need it!

I've just discovered this group. I too am a January surgery sister. Happy New Year - I had my bilateral mastectomy Jan. 6. At this point, I'm continuing maintenance Herceptin and started Tamoxifen in Sept. The Tamoxifen gives me headaches. I'm really fatigued and depressed even more than I was. The head aches in particular seem a lot worse just after my Herceptin infusion and it knocks me on my back for a couple of days after the chemo. Has anyone else experienced this? Thank you in advance!
0 -
Welcome Formydaughter
Glad to have you join us. I had a dbl mastectomy on Jan 28th. I was Her+ so my chemo included Herceptin. I got the chemo before surgery, but continued the Herceptin every three weeks. I had my final infusion on the first anniversary of my diagnosis. I had no side effects once I went on the Herceptin alone, except for maybe a little fatigue the day after. Many ladies seem to have serious side effects from the Tamoxifen.
My surgeon has not spoken to me yet about reconstruction. I see him in about two weeks for a check-up, so hopefully we will discuss it then. Quite honestly, I am not that interested in reconstruction. I am 65, widowed and the mother of five, grandmother of 6, so I am not interested in, nor do I have time for a new relationship. However, since surgery, I have excess skin, etc under each arm. I believe it was left that way in case of reconstruction, but it is extremely uncomfortable unless I wear a bra 24/7. I am hoping we will be able to correct that somehow. I am still wearing bras with very wide bands that cover and compress those areas.
You will find a great group of friends here. Our main purpose is supporting each other through this BCjourney, that none of us choose to be on, but like all friends, our conversations can go almost anywhere, from families to vacations to cooking and so on. Hope to hear more from you
Anne

Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm having SEs from the Herceptin alone, but all of the treatments seem to affect me more than what is expected, my onco says. He's debating taking me off of tamoxifen, but I'd like to wait to see if when I'm off of Herceptin things improve. I'm hoping it's the combo that's getting me. I was not able to finish the toxic chemo - they tried 3 different regimens, but all landed me in the hospital. We had to stop treatment for awhile and then started up again with the maintenance Herceptin, adding Tamoxifen a few months into it. It is looking like I will not get credit for the Herceptin that I got with the toxic chemo, which means that I'll be at it until June. They have not yet decided.
I hope your PS is able is resolve the skin issue for you. My reconstruction, though painful, has been a silver lining of sorts. The office is more like a spa. The best part is now being able to go bra free without saggage!
Snowed in here today. My daughter spent the night at my mom's house (chemo day for me yesterday) and is happy for a snowday with grandma. Hoping my dad stops by today to haul in some firewood! My brother in law plans to come to get squash - my role in Thanksgiving this year is to supply veggies from my CSA for the meal. I've even talked my brother (who doesn't cook) into making the mashed potatoes. Thankful for family!
I too have no interest in a relationship right now, though my OB prescribed for me last week - dating. He was sweetly worried about my mental health and being alone at 41 with so many years to come. So, I promised I'd be open to the idea and told him that if he wanted me to date, he'd have to set me up with someone. But my meds are leaving me with no desire.
Part of it is that I feel so remote from attractive at this point. I'm happy my hair is growing back, but I look like a fuzzy teddy bear right now. It is in an awkward stage and I'm either hiding under a hat or I dragged my wigs out again. Summertime was too hot for a wig, but now I'm happy for the head warmth from it. The funny thing is that my daughter (just turned 9) at first wanted me to wear wigs all the time, as my bald head scared her a bit. Since I hadn't over the summer, when I put one on last week for the first time since spring, she laughed and said I looked ridiculous and that she thought my real hair was much prettier,even if it looked like a boy haircut. (Boys are icky in her world.) it made me smile.
My skin has been a crazy mess since recovering from the toxic chemo - breakouts and super dry all at the same time. My regular skincare routine no longer seems to work. I tried a facial at my PS office. They used ski care products specifically made for chemo patients, but I turned bright red and broke out. Does anyone else who had skin issues post chemo have any ideas for things that worked post chemo?
I think the best thing I've done lately is started yoga. I'm taking classes from a center that has a huge variety of options and you just show up to whichever class you want each day. You don't have to sign up for a regular time, which is perfect for me with having some days in bed. I'm really liking a restorative yoga class and hot yin. I never thought I'd try to hot room class, but yin is a lying down class and the warm room feels good with the stretching. And it does not target arms/shoulders, so it does not hurt my chest area. I've lost so much upper body strength and range of motion this year. PT is helping, but the mental benefits from the yoga are an unexpected plus. I have a long way to go mentally right now, but it's a start.
I hope you have a great Thanksgiving.

Formydaughter, I know exactly how you feel. There were days when I was going through chemo that I would look in the mirror and wonder who was staring back at me. My hair has finally filled in the bald patches and I ditched the wigs about two weeks ago. I have more hair than Sinead O'Conner but less than my husband. I don't care, I feel so liberated and much more myself.
My skin was never softer and clearer than when doing chemo. I kind of miss the body being free of hair. I am in the middle of rads now so I have one armpit to shave and the other is very European. My DD and I had a good laugh yesterday when I went for treatment and the cancer side hairs had started to curl! I can't provide any words do wisdom on your post chemo skin since I am not experiencing that.
I started back to yoga, too. It has helped me a lot with gaining strength and flexibility. I also enjoy the mental aspects, too. I find moving my body through some kind of exercise, even a good walk, helps with my joint stiffness and aches along with rads fatigue. I do miss not doing full push ups. I keep trying but still not have enough strength through the pecs for more than one on my toes. Diane, I hope your MRI results are positive and nothing serious so you can get back to TKD. I went to MT last night and it felt good!
Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Formudaughter,
I can't speak to your issues with chemo, but I am a 54 yr old single mom with a son who turns 12 next week. I'm terrified of dating but can't picture myself alone for another 20plus years. All I can say is that even if you aren't ready to date, try to get out with friends. You will feel less isolated.
Ann is right. Exercise helps a great deal. I hurt my knee and have been unable to for nearly a month now and am really feeling down. Hopefully I'll be able to go back soon.
I also had a lot of trouble with the SE"s from the AIs and Tamoxifen. I hope you work it out.
You had your BMX on my birthday and our surgeries line up pretty closely. We've all gotten pretty close on this thread. I hope you will feel welcome here. All we can do is continue to be here for each other.
I'll post when I get the results of my MRI, hopefully soon.
My friend Leslie has her MRI scheduled for next Wednesday, so please say a prayer for her.
Happy Thanksgiving sisters! I am thankful for all of you.
Diane

Welcome formydaughter! I'm a Yoga fan, too, and am interested in integrative medicine and mind-body techniques to help in breast cancer recovery. Do any of your local clinics provide integrative or holistic medicine? They may have a suggestion for skin care products.
I just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to all my January Surgery Sisters! Hope you all have a peaceful and joyful holiday! DH and I will be having dinner at home, just the two of us. Then we are going up north to the cabin to enjoy some peace and solitude and shut it down until next spring.
Here's a chuckle for you guys:
Love,
Mary

Happy Day Before Thanksgiving Everyone
I made a decision yesterday that I hadn't realized I was so stressed about until I did it. As most of you know, I do a lot of traveling to be with my family ( i.e. Grandchildren) and was about to get on the Merry-go-round again. I had a appts with my Onc and BS on Dec 9 & 10 in Ga. The first weekend in Dec is a very busy one for me - my grandaughter is playing in her first recital that Fri night. Then my son's non-profit group is having its second annual basketball tournament to raise money ( I missed the first due to chemo), and Sun is my youngest grandson's birthday party. After all that, I would have had to fly to Ga that Mon to be there for the Dr's on Tues. But I wanted to be in Fl again by Christmas because my one daughter will be all alone if I am not here and also because two of the grandchildren here are the best ages for Santa (6 & 9). So it was going to be another worldwind of traveling.
I called both Drs in Atlanta yesterday and moved the appts to mid-January. Besides easing the traveling, I will one be here for my grandson's actual birthday, AND I will also be here to help my son and his fiancé find a place of their own, and help them move, and my future DIL asked my to go wedding gown shopping with her, her mom and sisters. And I will be here for the non-profit groups holiday get together .
I will now head back to Ga after the holidays, with no specific return date. If the BS wants to fix the pouches under my arms, I can go ahead and schedule that immediately. And I will be there for another grandson's birthday.
Have a great day tomorrow
Anne

Happy thanksgiving my January sisters! There is so much to be thankful for even though a year ago I was told I had cancer. My family, friends and bc sisters who helped me through the dark times, I am most thankful for all of you!0
