Re: Alcohol link to breast cancer recurrence
Thanks, Hopeful, I truly appreciate your personal experiences and advice. I won't beat myself up anymore, but simply use a bit more reservation with decision to order or have a glass of wine, respecting and appreciating my choice when I do.
What an awesome field of interest you have (what does "Through my SO" mean?) and I'm sure a very nice wine collection and a cellar to be coveted by many. I'm sure you've enjoyed some wonderful vacations, with the combination of the beauty of the vineyards, the great food and interesting people all a part of it. I live in California and have been to Sonoma and Napa. I also visited the Provence region of France, which was quite nice. Do you enjoy Paul Hobbs? There was wine we had recently from South America with a different label, but a Paul Hobbs connection, that was very good.
I appreciate your input in this area and plan to enjoy a glass once or twice a week, which I think will give me enjoyment and peace of mind. Thanks, Hopeful.
Vicki
