Update

Hola!
I hope all is well out there. Even if I don't call or write, I haven't forgotten. I have been trying to stay afloat.

Many of you have emailed me and asked how I am. This setting has been very challenging because it is taking me on a constant roller coaster ride physically and emotionally. Some days I am doing sooooo sooooo much better and then the next moment something starts to move, shake, twist or just flat out hurt so much. Going to the gym is helping me rebuild my strength, but I have to admit a former gym-fan, now it is a challenging, sometimes dreaded chore.

I have had a challenging time emotionally, but I am so grateful to the wonderful community that supports me, helps me and loves me...and "puts up with me and this interesting adventure"---thank you all!

Below is an article that just came out that can describe part of that roller coaster--again, I am thankful to my family, friends, all of my support and my teacher--that all help me to not be on that roller coaster ride all the time, at least not emotionally, anyway. Not much we can do about the physical aspect expect observe and detach.

All my love,
Millie
