365 Daze

[SoCalGal]

Hard to believe that a year has passed since my Stage 4 diagnosis. It has taken me the whole year to stop feeling panic-stricken most of the time.

It's been a year of weekly acupuncture/no gluten/no dairy and buckets of vitamins and supplements. (And of course - no comma key:)).

I've changed chemos several times/had my brain gamma'd/sent one kid to college/moved another home/and maintained a home and a life for myself and my kids. I am working on an online site. It will be a place to hold the art/poetry/performance and/or musical self-expression of our journey. An online museum of hope and inspiration for those who walk behind us.
I've made many new friends both on this board and through my local support group. And again my friends and family have stood strong by my side.

Just wanted to reiterate that largely due to this online community I continue to hold hope and feel educated and empowered for continued survival.

My mother always said "Flori - don't write the ending". I now know exactly what she meant by that.

Wishing you all an easy and peaceful day.
Hugs and blessings...
Flori

The bummer is that you also don't have a "less than" key, and that must be a real challenge! LOL

[SoCalGal]

"LESS THAN" Who needs it?
LOL.
I love you back BH!

Flori, it's hard for me to believe that it has been "only" one year - I feel like I've been loving you for far far longer...and will be for a long time to come.

Huh? Flori just joined last April? Whoa... you are right Chrisy (I have missed you girlfriend, and thrilled to hear you are chugging right along!) - seems like we have known Flori for a lifetime!!
