Re: New to the group/just diagnose 1 year ago/scared everday

HI Margie MC-

I am so sorry---

I am also approaching one year--(in about 3 weeks) and this past week-I have had a lot of emotions--depression--crying--upset--cant stop thinking about recoccur etc--

I think it might be the fact that I am leading up to the 1 year mark---????

The vet's can lend us both a word of advice on that possibility--

Prior to that I have been doing quite well and really enjoying being in the moment--just read 'A New Earth' by Eckart Tolle--and 'The Hope' by Andrew Harvey--both books helped me center myself in the "NOW"---

Sending loving and positive thoughts your way--
