St Andrews Luncheon - Adelaide

What a special day this was. the first cancer function I have been to & it certainly didn't disappoint. Many words & emotions come to mind when I think back on the day - Support, Love, Sharing but probably the word i would best use is EMPOWERING!! the speakers were amazing but the highlight of the day was meeting my very first forum buddie, @Sister . This amazing women is even more beautiful in the flesh, both inside & out & it was quite emotional & overwhelming to finally meet someone you have grown to know, in person. We both first posted at the same time, were both diagnosed at the same time, surgery together at the same hospital but she has had a much rougher & tougher road than me but she looks incredible. the friendships we make on this forum are life changing & to meet someone in person who has been with you from the beginning, is an incredible feeling. Unfortunately we were on separate tables but they were adjoining so we could catchup in the breaks. i reckon if we sat together we would have chatted all day & missed everything! Thanks @Sister for a special day & your wonderful words above. Hugs & much love xxxx
