Mountain Lions
You're all probably going to get sick of me over the next couple of days, stuck in hospital...
I've been trying to paste a copy of Caitlin Feeley's Mountain Lion analogy but all I have is my phone and it's defeating me! I'm sure some of you old hands have read it, but as a newbie, it really struck home to me. So, if you haven't seen it, do a google search. Try to find the full piece though as a number of people have just put excerpts on their sites.

@Sister so glad you thought to bring this to everyone. I read it a couple of weeks ago and thought... Yep, that's it alright! - JanineGMemberWow! That's the best thing I've read about 'this journey',(pet hate stupid saying), in the last two years. Thankyou @sister,@soldiercrab. It actually made me cry. But I love it ,think it's quite beautiful. Janine xo

I was walking up near Beechworth this morning and came face to face with a very large goanna. Dinosaur type massive. I've looked at it, it's looked at me and I've thought, "Oh, shit, not you again.'
I have no idea what it was thinking, reptiles are like that. But it flicked it's tongue, tasted the air and sauntered off into the scrub. It will be a while before I walk back down that track. I'm not going looking for a Yowie to get it off me.
- kezmuscMemberHa ha ha love the kale bit. @onemargie you ar soooo funny!
- Brenda5MemberI think my mountain lion is now dead, and the bear, and my husband has finally stopped griping about his nose lol.
Oh PS, I just unfriended a friend on a crusade to get me to rub kale on it, meditation, cleanser drinks, seminars. He just wouldn't leave me in peace. - onemargieMemberThat’s very cool I love the comment about the kale OMFG! This is a snippet of one I sent to someone and how I feel about it
So I’m giving you a big virtual hug and I’m standing at the top of the shit covered mountain that you are slowly crawling to the top of with champagne in one hand vodka in the other and when you’re finished everything you can run up there in the nude and show me your magnificent new boobies and show me the biggest set of Hairy balls that you have had to grow to get through all this shit and be proud that you have fucking punched your breast cancer in the fucking face and sent it screaming down the shit covered mountain you’ve just climbed and let it lie there to die in its own filth where it belongs.

This made my day!
The incredible variety of things I have been told to ingest, inhale, insert or lather over my bits has always amazed me - and I know that most people mean well etc etc but until now no one has told me about KALE!!!
Might just need to see what Dr Google has to say about it! ;-) - SisterMember@Afraser I took it as those who feel they want to be able to look after you. Mind you, if my mum was still around she'd be giving the mountain lion what for - unfortunately, not possible with cancer
- Milly21MemberMinding your own business and one day opening fridge to a mountain lion ,that is pretty much a great description of how I felt when diagnosed,lol
