What Does My Cancer Look Like 2 Years Later?

LIKE THIS!

Woohoo! This was taken yesterday and I have not stopped smiling! Let's be honest I had not been waterskiing in many, many years and it was not cancer that had put my skiing on hold! But it was having cancer that made me get my butt out there and give it a try again. Who knows when we will all have a chance again to water ski, hug a loved one or say I love you. You gotta get out there and do whatever it is that you say "next time I will"........We just have this moment in time and the motivation to take advantage of every minute has been my gift of breast cancer. Who knew that my boobs held so much power?

Along with healing I have been able to gradually take down my strength board over the last few months. I got to reread and process all the beautiful encouraging notes that I received during my treatment. You have no idea how much they lifted me then and now! I was lucky enough to reconnect with a college friend the other weekend and when I said, "I wouldn't have changed this journey for anything." She looked at me with disbelief but then quickly recognized that I meant it. My strength board is down and has been repurposed in my office with a few quotes posted here and there. Now the board is filled with some To Dos and goals for Yoga Roots, a warm community based yoga studio that was a place of healing and strength for me when I was in full recovery mode.  Now I am honored to be helping them with some marketing and I am doing my dream job! Who knew? That is the beauty of this life we all lead; no one knows what we will be doing tomorrow so as
