Every breast cancer survivor has their "thing" that aided in their fight and recovery. That "thing" for me would be all of the words of encouragement, support, prayer, good vibes that have come from each of you. It sets a part true friends from those who just care about "socializing". It brings about the raw meaning of friendship. The fact each of you have taken a couple minutes out of your day to reach out to me in your own way, it means the world to me. I try my best to respond to each of you, but sometimes time slips away from me.
Since my time off, I've slipt into an old, but good, habit of reading books again. I've made myself turn off technology and dive into a good book. I have read 5 books in 10 days (YES, FIVE!). I forgot how much I truly enjoyed reading! A side of me that has been dormant for far too long has finally resurfaced....and I am liking it. =) Yes, that means I am getting in touch with my more softer side (if that's hard to believe). This takes me back to my life motto of "everything happens for a reason". As cliche as it is, it's true.

As much as I would love to ramble on about the thoughts and emotions going through my mind, I must get back to the novel I am reading. I leave you with a fun photo from today's adventure with a dear friend, whose mom is actually a breast cancer survivor. She was able to take off work to attend a special charity bridal event with me, Brides Against Breast Cancer. I don't want to take too much time to go into detail about the cause, but I have posted the link below for your viewing. It's a great cause with an amazing group of supporters. =)
If the healing of the one "pesky" incision has progressed, I am tentatively scheduled for surgery on Wednesday, June 6th at 1:00pm. I will make sure to keep everyone up to date if anything changes. In the meantime, I am going to enjoy my weekend and so should you! =)
