Once again I learned a thing or two...It never occured to me that showers have not been a option for you for over 2 years!!! or the why of not having reconstruction done! I think the door opening to this next adventure is huge! more then Huge!....It's like spring arriving, a newness and change unfolding...and perhaps showers on the horizon and your very own "new breast' so that you can feel more whole again! I will be keeping this new journey in my prayers...because to me, this is a positive one...one that will make your soul sing! Much love to you Vicky!!! loved this!

I find that when I know you have an upcoming appointment that I kind of hold my breath a bit until the results are in and I pray double time asking for two more weeks, three more months and forever.<br /><br />And of course dear Dr. P, bless his heart, came through with his usual encouragement and hand on your shoulder. And now even a suggestion that surgery might be a help. As you head to "the next thing" know you are held up in prayer daily by so many of us who love you dearly.<br /><br />Love you to the moon and back!<br />Linda Linda Seppa Salisburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13336969827398454131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-69957061302009986112014-04-23T20:22:17.039-05:002014-04-23T20:22:17.039-05:00Sounds like a good check-up.
