Now that I have beat that evil Breast Cancer alien
and I am beginning to gain back my strength as well as grow hair I am excited
to say that I have begun to create once again. I still haven’t picked up my
paint brushes or continued the work on the third novel but I have gone back to
sewing. I have completed quilts that lay unfinished and started sewing pretty dresses
for little canine beauties and belly bands for little boys that cannot hold
their water or just have leaky equipment due to health or age. We worked with
the Florida BT rescue from May until October but the strain of so many babies
needing help. We have a forever foster that we are going to adopt due to the
fact she is nervous and frightens easily. We are bonded and the chance of her
totally shutting down due to the trauma of being located she is now a part of
our family.
There are a few remainders of the side effects from
the chemo hanging around but they are easily ignored except the weird short
term memory problems and the tingling in the hands and feet. I have begun
substituting for the local school district and when the day is over I am
exhausted. The great thing is I have remained positive and continued to be
grateful.
