OT but Screw It: Grateful!!!
I have spent the last 7 days consumed with fear that I would become yet another statistic in the ongoing battle against breast cancer. This morning, after an initial diagnosis of malignant calcifications with ductal carcinoma in situ, I was released with a clean slate of simply "benign microcalcifications, no big deal come back in 12 months!!!"
So, after I went from extreme low (with my life flashing before my eyes) to extreme relief, I made a commitment to live each day as if it were my last, (love better, walk brisker, make a difference in this world daily, be more open more often to DH desires, have more fun and ease up on some of the rules with my boys) and in living each day as if it were my last I accept the responsibility for the broad brush strokes of my life and the fine detail...afterall, only I can paint my masterpiece.
As WLS grads we are all rare and priceless works of art.
