Yeah it took some getting used to but I love it now.
-
Thought I'd check in to see if anyone was here. You all doing okay? I rarely come on this site any more. Isn't it funny how the farther away we get from Nov.09, the less we come here? WEll, I think of you all often and hope everyone's doing ok.

I'm doing fine, and busy as ever. I don't check in very much either, but follow a couple of threads and sometimes check in on others. I set my computer so I get an e-mail if there's any activity on this one post, so that works well! It's great to hear from you, and I'm so glad you are doing well! May God continue to bless you!

Hi all -
I am doing well too. Just as several of you have mentioned - I rarely come here anymore but do check in on this thread once in awhile. I for one am really looking forward to spring. Been watching the bulbs come up out of the ground since early January of all things! Stay well my friends!

Hi everyone! In a few months, we will have reached our 4 year mark! Yea for us!
Has anyone had any problems or things come up, etc.? 2Hands, Ms Marilyn had chemo again recently. I know that from FB...wish you would join! ;-)
Love to you all!

All well here. The only thing bothering me is lymphedema from removal of lymph nodes during surgery. Hope everyone else is doing well. Prayers for those who have been less fortunate.

Just checking in...It's our 4- year anniversary. Did you all think of that? We've made it 4 years now. Yay!!! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! -
It's November and my mind goes back to this time, 6 years ago.We all had our mastectomies. It was such a dark, scary time for me.
SO very thankful that 6 years have gone by!!!
I'd like to hear from anyone out there, who still checks in here. How is everyone doing?
*Hugs* !!!!!

Here I am, right along with you! Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
All is well here and wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

My UMX was not in Nov '09 but was on Oct 21, '09 so close time wise. Yeah - I'm still here, still NED and living and loving every day to the utmost I can. Still as active as ever and have taken up a couple more 'outdoor' hobbies that keep me even more 'outdoors'. Well, winters are not nice at all here so don't get to spend as much time during winter as I do during summer. -
How is everyone doing? It's been 12 years almost since our surgeries.
