OK I have read every post, tons of books and articles,
etc. (most everything about bc). I want to believe that
its all over but I still insist on tests to check? Go figure.
Today I opened a Vanity Fair Magazine and the Breast
Cancer Research Foundation had a quote and it said in
the US a woman will die from breast cancer, on average, every 13 minutes. Wow thats just way too many and I hope that figure is changing with all the
new drugs. I am taking Qigong and they say all that
matters is the now so for now we are all ok. I also
read Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now which was
hard to read but enlightning in many ways. Take
care everyone and have a great weekend.
