It has occurred to me on several occasions that I am lucky. As I trod along through the surgeries, the appointments and the treatments, I sometimes forget the seriousness of breast cancer. Lately however, I have been reminded. A co-worker of Steve’s lost his wife to breast cancer last month at the young age of 34; an obituary in the paper the other day described the life a woman who passed away from breast cancer in her 40’s. A woman in our support group was unable to attend the last three meeting because she has been in and out of hospital, having blood transfusions and having injections to keep her blood counts high enough to receive chemotherapy.
I am lucky to have such amazing friends and family. I am lucky to have a team of incredible doctors look after me. I am lucky that the cancer was found before it was too late.

Hey Kim:
Lucky is when I have 7, 2 offsuit and your mom folds her pocket 5's to my all-in bluff...that's luck. Hi Carol:)
God has blessed you with a great support system in your family and friends. You are constantly being prayed for up here at the Woods this summer.
Looking forward to the "Pink Party"...
Keep Smiling,
