“If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?”

Oh my friends!

Well this year was a journey. After 126 doctor visits I am definitely on the mend. They got all the cancer and now things have settled down to a few check ups now and then.

What made all the difference was how incredibly kind everyone was. People mailed me lovely books, dropped off art supplies, tons of food, get well cards, bath bombs, protein powder and radiation cream, knitted hats, called to see how I was doing, emailed advice on how to make it through chemo, shared their experiences, dropped by, took my hub out to see how he was doing, wrote letters, flowers and plants, warm socks, sat with me through chemo, drove me to the doctor, donated money for medical bills, Facetimed, emailed me sheet music for guitar, sewed pillows for my wrists, baked bread. My friend Connie texted me every morning to see how the cats were doing. My yoga teacher brought extra blankets and a bolster so that I could just lie there like a burrito. 

Thank you so much, it made all the difference in the world.

Best thoughts,
