I wanted a word that was synonymous with courageous. I feel like we're all (not necessarily by choice) courageous in our AN journey. We're having or have had surgery or radiation, or are watching and waiting and researching our options. Many here have had difficult challenges and are coping, sharing and hanging in there. All I've met on this forum are very helpful and encouraging to others. I would put all this in the 'courageous' category.
Here's a great quote I found when we were visiting the USAF Memorial:
“Courage is doing what you are afraid to do.†Captain Eddie Rickenbacken; airman WWI; from the United Stated Air Force Memorial, Arlington, VA
It made me realize we can be courageous even when we feel nervous and are doubting at times.
I guess that's enough rambling.. onto the calendar:
July 24th - TxNurseNoelle will be having translab somewhere in Texas? Noelle, if you read this, do you mind sharing where you're having your surgery? You mentioned you lived in a small town. I hope and pray all goes well with the surgery and NONE of the cardio stuff you've been dealing with is a hindrance in any way. I hope you can get the support and help you need post op. I hope someone can post for you and you can let us know how you're doing. All the best to you, Noelle.
There is nothing else listed on the calendar. Does anyone know if there's any other procedures, doc appts, etc? If so, please share.
From last week, I believe Helga has a postie update, and Donnalynn has shared about her MRA, and LADavid about his balance treatments.
The NYC people had a reunion luncheon (pictures available!) and the AN book club has started analyzing Henry's time travels.
There; done by midnight!
Have a good week,
Keri
