Lovely little moments

“Choose to be optimistic, it feels better.” 
― Dalai Lama XIV

Well put, Dalai Lama!

Last week was full of wonderful happenings. I met with an old friend I'd not seen in years, and she shared with me her journey with LCIS. Lumpectomies, Tamoxifen, etc. It didn't sound so scary.

I spoke with a specialist at Breast Cancer Connections and she emailed me a slew of information that I'd not been able to find online or at the library.

A good friend's sister was in town visiting, and she happens to be a genetic counselor, so I was able to get another professional perspective on my situation.

At the end of the week, I met a friend's mom who is a breast cancer survivor, and her diagnosis was much more serious than mine. She's doing wonderfully, and offered support.

A relative who I thought was lost to me forever rejoined my life.

Many lovely moments to be thankful for!
