"normal"

Thanks Gerri,
I go back and forth with this -- some days I am very patient with myself and other days I get very frustrated with not having any energy and being FAT. Three days after my last Herceptin treatment (Jan./07) I decided that I'd had enough of being the cancer patient and I was going to just get back to "normal". I ended up tripping "up" the basement stairs, splitting my lip open, 2 black eyes, and a broken nose. So.....that doesn't work!!! It seems like a lot of the women who post in this forum are very active and have more energy than I have. I guess we're all different.
Thanks for your advice.
