Hi Susan,

Don't apologize for going "off topic" NOTHING is off topic as our cancer experience goes. It affects every aspect of our lives. So, thank you for bringing this topic up as I know EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US HAVE FELT WHAT YOU FEEL. After reading your post I said to my husband "oh it's so nice to hear someone verbalize what I felt so many times." I, too, felt that I looked so old for quite some time. I'm feeling better about myself now. I think I look better 2+ years out but maybe I'm just use to looking at my new self. Whatever, the reason, I agree with everyone else that you have to do for you WHATEVER it is that will make you feel good.

Anyway, not much else to offer from what everyone else said..............................but I did want to thank you for sharing your innermost feelings with us. We've all been their, felt it and it's nice to "talk" about it and hear what other's have done. Hey, maybe I'll become a hot mama after reading all these suggestions. LOL!

Hugs to you Susan - you are a TRUE beauty,

Mary Jo
