How could I wake up this morning and not know it is National Cancer Survivors Day?
Next best thing to my birthday, actually even better because it gives me a moment in time to share the experience of being a cancer survivor with other survivors across the country.
Cancer changes you forever...not just in the physical sense...I know I am so much different than I was pre-cancer...and I know I got very lucky...I am here today to celebrate survivorship when the odds spoke a very different story and so many friends have been lost to cancer over the years while I somehow managed to elude cancer's grip...
I will spend the remainder of my life celebrating others, celebrating the fact that I am here and can do something special with my survivorship...do something each and every day to make some small difference in the world...and do whatever I can to help those who are diagnosed with cancer, particularly ovarian...
So, the sun is shining...the sky is blue...what a time to celebrate and start anew...
