Cancer Support and Caregivers Who Are Trail Blazers!

[pynkkameleon]

I spent the better portion of my day reading every single post in this thread. I have laughed, cried, empathized, grieved and have been touched by each and every one of you.

I'm a member of the club none of us ever wanted to join too. I was diagnosed in 2009 with Breast Cancer. Lost the boobs, did chemo, did rads, got new foobs, lost those, got another set of foobs and lost again. Apparently boobs don't like me. Fine, cuz I don't really like them either too much right now. It's going to be an adjustment since nearly every shirt I own was designed to show off my lovely bit of cleavage but what can I do but roll with it.

I don't have time to say much more at the moment but will try to pop in later for a more proper introduction. Nurse will be here in a few minutes to change the dressing on my PICC line, kids are wanting dinner etc.. but I did want to say that I think you are all AMAZING! All of you supporters, caregivers, loved ones and those battling the beast, stay strong.. and as Clay so wonderfully said.. We are all Brave Warriors!

First off...here ya go....(((((((((((((((((((((((((Vonni)))))))))))))) )).
Secondly, foobs...I love that word...IMHO..those DO NOT a woman's
cleavage" make..it is HOW she wears her top,(ie...does she wear it proudly, wear it beautifully) and "work it" like a runway MODEL she is... how much "skin" she decides to show, AND how she carries herself....along with her heart and her spirit! THAT is what I find hawwwttt about her....

May you have an awesome support system where you are....may you have peace and calmness in your daily journey, and know I am sending you white light energy..always...place your hand in mine, and any one of us here or better yet....ALL of ours..we march together..and leave NO ONE behind!!! We carry, we push, we pull, we encourage, we support, we cry, we laugh, and we LIVE our lives to the fullest..but we leave NO ONE behind!!!
