Ahhhh... I've missed you knitting blog. There was a slight bump in my knitting road from June, 2009 until April, 2010.... then some mental healing - and lo and behold... here I am! School Nurse Jackie is slowly getting it together and remembering how much I loved to blog.
Above you will see that my boys shaved their heads in solidarity. In a nutshell - Moderately Invasive Ductal Carcinoma diagnosed April, 2009. I do not know stage because it is not important to me. Here is what IS important to me.... Clean margins around the one inch mass... Node NEGATIVE.... and put my body through all recommended treatment - 16 chemotherapy sessions in 20 weeks, and 28 radiation treatments... culminating with an amazing trip to Jamaica for the entire family to heal...
Terry took the photo, so he couldn't be in it... But alas - we have moved on and left our worry behind in the beautiful waters you see in the background!
I promise to upload some photos of my projects soon. I'm getting my camera back from a friend who has babysat it since December (when I left it at her house after much celebrating)...
For now... I want to thank so many of my knitting friends who helped hold me up when I didn't think I could stand. Your words of encouragement helped remind me of my inner strength and ability to move forward. Your texts and calls were the wind beneath my wings, and HERE I AM!
I am so happy to see this!! Love it! You are an inspiration and a great friend! Keep these posts coming! Xoxo
