I'm excited for you Michele and Audrey. How cool! I know I have "mentored" a few women and we have become close. One lives in CA and I will be meeting her this Fall. We've been communicating for almost 2 years now and I feel like we've known each other forever. I met another woman 2 weeks ago ( a woman my hospital asked me if I would contact) She sings in a contemporary Christian band (my absolute favorite kind of music) and we hit it off right from the start. She had her mastectomy today (negative lymph nodes PRAISE THE LORD) and we plan on meeting in the next few months. She lives about 2 1/2 hours from me.

So, I understand that feeling Michele. You know................... breast cancer can be nasty I KNOW........but, I'll tell you what..........I've met some of the most awesome people since my journey began (and that includes this group as well) and I wouldn't trade that for anything.
