How I came to this blog

For as long as I can remember I had been so excited about my 30th birthday. It was going to be a big year for me, I could feel it. I had no idea a breast cancer diagnosis would turn out to be the reason. I was actually told I had "early breast cancer" at 29, about three weeks before my 30th birthday. What I had is called Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS), which is also considered "stage 0 breast cancer." While it was caught at the earliest possible stage, and my life was never in immediate danger, I still had to undergo mastectomy, including lymph node removal, and reconstruction. My birthday came and went a couple weeks before my mastectomy. More than once I looked down at the "F 30" on my hospital bracelet and wondered, "where did my 30th birthday go?" This will definitely be an interesting year.

Big Plans for the Weekend

So maybe this doesn't really sound like a big plan, but it is, I assure you. Today marks four weeks since my second surgery (Friday, February 18 - Friday, March 18 to be exact). This means that starting tomorrow I can work out again! And THAT means that tomorrow morning, D and I are getting up bright and early to head to our regular yoga class. I'm very excited to get back out there. I'll probably be signing up for some dance and Zumba events soon and can't wait to get back to my kickboxing class at the gym!
