Reaching my first goal

Well I made it !.  Last Sunday I turned 70 yrs something I never thought would ever happen when I was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer 4 yrs and 4 months ago. Some people say its nothing to get excited about being 70 but to me it means a lot . one thing it means is I'm still alive, and every day now is a bonus. I had lots of celebrations , lunches with friends and a big family gathering.  Still have one lunch invitation to go on Thursday. Hope I survive all the partying.  My family have given me a gift voucher for my husband and I to have a helicopter joy flight over the beaches on the central coast of N.S.W. which we will take on a nice sunny day.  It was the one thing on my bucket list. I will finish on this note.  Just wishing you girls all the best with your treatment and sunny days ahead.  Love and best wishes Wendy H 67

  • Happy 70th birthday. Like yourself I have secondary breast cancer and my goal in life is to get to be old so getting to 70 is a step in the right direction. Stay well and enjoy your birthday present. Dawn xxx

  • Happy birthday the best gift you could have is to turn 70. I have had a crappy day at work and this has made me feel great to read such good news. Enjoy your helicopter ride, sending you a big birthday hug xxx
