I'm living with breast cancer. I was first diagnosed in 2006 and In 2013 it metastasized to other parts of my body which means it is now Stage 4. This is the kind that kills about 108 women a day yet under 10% of funding goes to research. For 2016 I think I'll start updating whats on my mind and how I feel while I continue on with my chemo and cannabis oil therapy. I know there are others like me who FEAR the CRAP out of the unknown. If it happens, I'm sharing. Hold on to your beanies!

Walk for a Cure!
Today was the Susan G. Komen 5K Race/Walk. It was an absolutely gorgeous day and the walk was my first ever. We walked as the "Trans National Titans" as a corporate team and there were 14 of us all together. It was a very touching and moving morning. When we went to pick up our numbers and the woman asked me how many years I had been a survivor, I welled up and could barely keep from tearing up when I said "Not even 1". I knew it was going to be a tough day. But it was an inspiring one to say the least.
I am so grateful to everyone who donated and my teammates who walked with me: Jeff, Frankie, Alyssa, Marcy (my co-captain and survivor), Alyssa, Darcy, Hannah, Vikas, John, Betty, Lauren, Kay and Frances.
I can't wait until next year to keep growing our team and our donations to HELP FIND A CURE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hair check
Can't believe how fast my hair is coming in - for those of you who remember my old hair, you probably don't find it hard to believe, actually!
We spend just about every Labor Day weekend up at a YMCA family camp in New Hampshire on Sandy Island in Lake Winnepesaukee. I thought I would post a few pics from the weekend. This year ne of my good gal pal's from high school came up with her husband and kids. We had a great time!
