Long Overdue Progress Report

To say I have hit some speed bumps along my recovery would be an understatement!  Here it is over four months after surgery and I am still not back to work.  It seems as though if it was not one thing, it was another.  However, I am making progress, it's just going a lot slower than I had antcipated.

The important thing is I am cancer free.  I have also started writing my book (even with a splint on my right arm from tendonitis) for the past month.  The joint pain has been so severe that Tim needs to help dress me now.  He also drives me where ever I need to go, even if it's showing houses to a client.  I feel like I have my own personal real estate chauffeur. LOL  What an angel.

I tell you, reliving some of my experiences on this journey for the book as been incredibly emotional.  What a ride this has been.  I can't beleive I'm still here ALIVE.  I really am living proof that miracles do happen.

I don't know what my future holds anymore.  Hopefully a best seller is in my near future!  What I do know is this, I will be more grateful for each day I am blessed with than ever before.  I look forward to getting to comb my hair again, it is starting to finally grow back.  I'm digging this whole new size six thing too!  I also have fingernails and toenails growing back.......

I am super excited at being one of the speakers at the opening ceremony for the Federal Way Relay for Life first weekend in June.  I am even more excited at the opportunity of being one of the faces of hope for the annual pancreas cancer symposium in Seattle, second weekend in June.  I hope to share my story with as many folks as it can help from this point forward,

I am so optimistic for all the doors of opportunity just waiting for me to open!
