Positive thinking .......

This study says it doesn't matter...... that positive thinking does not help fight cancer.

I don't know what to think. I'd love to wave a flag and say "look at me, I'm so great, I kept a good attitude and now I'm cancer-free." But people - women, mothers, wives, sisters - they are dying anyway. Good attitude or not.

I think when it's time, it's time.

Inspiration

From my daily calendar:

Although what you encounter and what you do in each moment is appropriate and perfect to the evolution of your soul, the shape of the experiences of your life is determined nonetheless by the choices that you make. It is you that chooses to linger in resentment, or to be consumed by anger, or enveloped in grief, or to release these lower-frequency currents of energy.

YSC Sister

We are having a great time on our trip. For tons of pictures (still being updated) visit www.tronnii2008.blogspot.com

While near Savannah I met up with August, one of the good things that has come out of cancer. August went through treatment about the same time I did, and is doing great. We met through the YSC site. The kids played and we had a great visit. We had to bribe them with M&M's to sit for pictures........ so you can see the progression of blue M&M on the little one's face.... ;)

The Savannah YSC group also sent us a terrific basket of goodies, including coloring books, sand toys, and a gift certificate to a restaurant on Tybee Island. It was so thoughtful of them. I wish we had had more time in Savannah. It's a beautiful city.

My arms really don't look that chunky in real life. I don't think.
