Hi Leonie, I didn't realise I was classified as "survivor" yet, but I agree thats a great term! Sounds like you also have wonderful celebrations in the month of October....and how exciting to celebrate a wedding anniversary combined with celebrating being a "survivor"!!....I don't think it gets much better than that! And yes you are right, we do live with "it" on a daily basis...I think the challenge for me these days is living well without constant fear of 'it" reoccurring. So far I've managed to do that well I think. I like the fact that you have a plan each year to do something or go somewhere different. I think as 'survivors' we don't take for granted the fact that we are here, alive and well, and plans are important. I have only just started to make plans again (I did have many plans before BC but they all went out the window for one reason for another) and it feels good to have something to look forward to and work towards again.
Anyway, have fun this month! I hope you enjoy yourself! Celeste x
