I'm back home. All's well.

Hey lovelies!
I'm back from a whole month in Uruguay for teacher certification for DanceAbility International and it was so great! Now I work on setting up lots of workshops and rehearsals/performances for dance improvisation for all people, regardless of their physical/mental abilities. It's work I really believe in and love to share with the world.

I have checkups next week but all seems to be quite well...just can't shake the extra weight!! Now that I'm back to my health food stores (no such thing in Montevideo) hopefully I can find a diet that works. Still waiting for my treatment center to get approved to be involved in the Neratinib trial I was approved for...until then I'm just eating well, dancing and loving life. Being back home with my family is great. Got to celebrate my 33rd birthday on 3/3. Blessed to be here.

Glad to be back in touch with you all too.
Love, Celeste
