Sorry I haven't been on much lately, I've been lurking though and trying to keep up with everyone. Just haven't felt like I had much good to offer anyone this week.
I went to the Dr. Tuesday to find that I again, have some health issues that need to be dealt with, which I am doing, but it through me for a bit of a loop again. It seems almost yearly anymore, for the past 3 years, that I am faced with some sort of cancer scare and though I thought I had prepared myself this time, ahead of time, I obviously did not. Needless to say it knocked me off balance a bit, but I am regaining my momentum slowly.
I've decided to change the things I can, exercise and eating better, taking care of me to name a few. Though I have no control over what is growing in my body-these things I can control. Am I scared.....yes, but this time around there is a calmness to it, and acceptance that this is just what is and there is nothing I can do about it and somehow I know that no matter what happens I will be ok......it's weird.
Haven't thought about much else since really. Just taking a day at a time. Have a date again this weekend with the normal man-lol, that sounds soooo funny. But he is and I'm not. This will be our third if it happens and it has been going ok. No big romance, no jumping in head first, no fireworks (but there is a spark-lol). I am really just focusing on me right now and letting everything else fall where it may.
I just wanted you all to know that I'm still close by, just had to do a bit of secluding for awhile, but I love you all and pray for my MIP family daily:)
Easy does it,,,, Shelly

((((Shelly)))) The people working in the infusion rooms in our hospital wear big buttons that say, "Cancer Sucks." And it does. It always reminds me of my small place in this big world. Give it over to God.
I could of wrote this post, I really am begining to think we are twins LOL
I've got a health problem at the moment, am going for screening next week. This time I'm not worrying, stress is so bad for your health. I'm just staying in today as next week isnt here yet. I have alot of good things in today and I'm taking care of me. Good to hear your doing the same. Enjoy your weekend and keep taking care of YOU, your Worth It
I think you are doing great. What an inspiration for me. I have 30 more lbs left to lose and I have been hedging going into the work I need to do to get there. Thank you for reminding me one day at a time.
