What got me through

[duriyah]

It has been four weeks since my surgery. I can lift my arms over my head and do some light weight lifting. I went to a Tai Chi class today for the first time since surgery, and did pretty well. My full-time disability days are coming to a close; I go back to work on Monday

Thank you for sharing this. I'm saving this to memories.

May I link to this post?

[duriyah]

Yes of course! I made it public for a reason. :-) Thanks for the complement!

This is the first I even heard you were unwell. Good to hear you're pulling through!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in early May. It's been a long spring and summer, but I'm beyond the worst of it now. I had a lumpectomy a month ago and I'm now cancer free!

^^Your butterfly description reminded me of this icon.

Thank you for sharing so much of yourself here. You are strong and courageous and I'm always wishing you the very best. *love*

Beautiful!

Of course! I think I had this entry in mind from the very beginning. This is the important stuff...what do I do when the chips are really down. Thank you so much for all your support. Really. *hugs*

I am so glad you're feeling centered and strong. Love to you.

Thank you! *Grin*...I had no idea you actually read my journal!

For some reason you weren't on the right friends group list (the one I usually read), but you are there now! So I'll be reading diligently from now on :)
