The fourth of July. July 4th. Freedom. Today. Freedom today. I am free to enjoy love, life, FAMILY and friends. I still have my fears, my hesitations, but I can't hang on to those forever. I still have some hang-ups, I say lets do this or that, then I fall through. But I recognize this and I AM ready for a change. I am ready for my word to be FIRM. I am ready to do what I am saying I will do. One of the things I have been telling myself I will do, is close this blog. I had a journey THROUGH Breast cancer, and now my journey is THRIVING after breast cancer. I still have aftermath to go through. Reconstruction, results from my BRAC2 (Genetic testing). This may mean a hystericomy and a mastectomy of my left breast, but we'll go through this together. I have been determined to bring you all with me, and I will. But for now. Today I am cancer free, I am thankful for that. Today I said I will LIVE and today I LIVED. Love you, love me, Love you, love me.


Ahh, yes, notes for today... a great gathering with family here in North Pole at what is called the river dyke. Campfire and lots of talk about an upcoming wedding! Fireworks and kids running around. Hotdogs and s'mores. Egg toss and...and...fun! Blessed to have such a wonderful day and wonderful sisters!
