Thank you so much for sharing your ...Dear friend, <br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing your story. As a five year ovarian cancer survivor, I can tell you that it does get better. You will heal, in body, mind and spirit...and your entire outlook will be changed. The hair does grow back...though often comes in completely differently.The weight comes back. Now, when I look at those gray streaks that my hairdresser is adept at covering, or my pudgy cheeks, I'm so thankful to see them. <br />(((((HUGS)))) and best wishes to you,<br />Ellen (aka Preppy Yogini)Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339881374158189795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4558557770824570856.post-28400361042125209262010-04-10T22:21:24.976-07:002010-04-10T22:21:24.976-07:00Hi Elisabeth, Thank you so much!

I miss my long hair every day, but it's been much more bearable to deal with than i imagined...<br /><br />i was diagnosed Oct 2009, and i'm more than half way done with chemo, one more minor surgery this summer! All going well, and blogging, art, family, friends, dancing - they all contribute intensely to the healing!<br /><br />Thank you again for visiting and your kind words!<br />Erica (-:DancingRapunzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07206797544929796608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4558557770824570856.post-1192659956769552982010-04-10T22:20:22.253-07:002010-04-10T22:20:22.253-07:00Hi Jayne, I often find it hard to put an experie...Hi Jayne, I often find it hard to put an experience into words, especially with emotions ranging from from despair in one moment, to complete joy and love in another. Sometimes it's not easy to choose laughter over tears, but a good mixture can be very soul cleansing! Thank you for your comments, and for the very inspiring, helpful blog you write. I very much appreciated the interview with Karla Morton and look forward to reading her book.<br />EricaDancingRapunzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07206797544929796608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4558557770824570856.post-75537897681602126612010-04-08T17:39:29.450-07:002010-04-08T17:39:29.450-07:00You are so brave!

Stay strong and keep making art! You're in my thoughts and prayers!

I'm grasping for the correct word but the moment is - without a doubt- something BIG.<br /><br />JayneJaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192992900760318633noreply@blogger.com
