Title: "Lucky 7's" ANniversary
Post by: ppearl214 on April 03, 2013, 04:37:20 am

Ya know, as time as moved along for me, this time of year comes around and my focus becomes more and more on other things in my life (ie: work, family, etc)..... then.... it hits me.  I see the first week of April..... most importantly, April 3.... and it hits me.... OMG!  :o   How long since my AN treatment?  So, I sit back, figure out the year (2006) and then start counting on my fingers to the current year..... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6........ wow, 7 years since my CK treatment!  I sit back, think about that timeframe..... my best friend driving me into Boston each day.... the music piped in during my treatment (from U2 to Yanni, Elton John and yes, even Chipmunk Christmas... it was Easter timeframe :) ).  I think about feeling fatigued but still going out for lunch, napping, snuggling with QueenieBeanie, the Healing Toot Queen (now missed terribly).  Then, I sit back and think about all of you here.  The phone calls and items showing up (do any of you remember the Snake and the Mouse from Capt Deb? :) ).

I wanted to say a HUGE thank you for continued support and wishes over the past 8 years on this site... the past "Lucky 7" years since my AN treatment.  Whatta journey... what a ride it's been.  Fingers crossed I never have to go through it again but oh, so glad I did the journey with you all!

So, here I sit... my Lucky 7 ANniversary.... and I  thank you for being there for me.

Wellness wishes to all!
Phyl

Hi Phyl .....

I do not remember Capt Deb's Snake and Mouse, but I do remember all of the kind, helpful words of encouragement and fun you have given to the members of the forum.

So grateful you are celebrating your lucky 7 ANniversary today!!  Here's to many more!!!

Congrats Phyl!!!  While I wish NONE of us ever came down with this little thing in our head, it has in fact formed a new circle of friends that none of us will ever forget.  You have been a pillar of support for a lot of people over the years and I myself am thankful for everything you do.  Congrats again Phyl! :)
