Wanted to share a sweet gesture
My sister in law posted this picture to her profile on facebook of herself and I. Her being the red head - and me being the other. She attached this pink ribbon as a way to honor me during this month of October. I thought that was very sweet and it really touched my heart.
Wanted to share with my "sisters" as I think you will also think it was sweet.
Mary Jo

Re: Wanted to share a sweet gesture
Thank you for sharing that wonderful picture, Mary Jo. I always love your posts!
Hope you have a wonderful day. I am off to my weekly herceptin/navelbine treatment today. Had just herceptin last week and felt much better without the navelbine side effects. Hope we get it all adjusted soon. Your picture and post lifted my spirits---thanks again! Hugs, Tricia
