I also love love Mrs D and Belle tired of thinking about drinking need to look into your other suggested blogs. I am a heavy heavy drinker who is a mum with 2 kids 6 and 8 with 2 part time jobs and f/t study. Anyway enough about me I just want to say that the fact that you have not listened to the wine witch during your journey is superhuman. I have had breaks for the vino (4-6 weeks) but found I'd pick up and drink more rapidly after each break. Honestly I think Im done SM. You are the most massive inspiration to me and I hang out for your posts checking in every day. You are awesome and beautiful and have inspired so many big love from Melbourne Australia xoxoxoxojuniorburgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14791008791319176546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763877266715908242.post-51607837042810244612015-10-27T00:28:12.375-07:002015-10-27T00:28:12.375-07:00dear SM, you are in my thoughts a lot since readin...dear SM, you are in my thoughts a lot since reading your news.<br />my heart goes out to you, wishing you all the best.<br />xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763877266715908242.post-8846686630806857992015-10-26T09:35:44.895-07:002015-10-26T09:35:44.895-07:00Thinking of you. xxx Mtts. xxThinking of you. xxx Mtts. xxRuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07389821005083452811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763877266715908242.post-54430210135919605672015-10-25T19:01:29.205-07:002015-10-25T19:01:29.205-07:00Love from me.

One of the reasons I stopped is because my dad had a big operation to remove a cancerous bladder tumour. He drank alcohol right up to the night before the op although he was supposed to have stopped or at least cut right down. I'm sure he was planning how long it would take till he was back to normal and could drink his beloved red wine and whisky again. Long story short things didn't go as planned and he ended up in ICU with withdrawal from alcohol as the reason. Scared us all. I'm glad you don't have to deal with the raging wine witch just now. Keep breathing and take each day as it comes.

My daughter-in-law was diagnosed with a rare form of cervical cancer almost four years ago, the first oncologist gave her absolutely no hope, she said there is no five year survival statistics because there are no five year survivors. Thank God, she changed doctors. Her scans continue to be clear, in fact, they have finally decided that she doesn't need them every three months. Every day is a miracle for her. <br /><br />They caught hers early. You said they think yours is only Stage One. It is a miracle that your aunt's diagnosis caused you to go look at your own breasts. It is a miracle that, as WB says, you are at your strongest right now. It is a miracle that your lump wasn't some insidious thing deep inside that couldn't be detected until it was too late. You know the fucker is there and you can fight it.<br />Don't quit expecting miracles, you might miss some. <br />BTW, you have a right to be angry (notice that I didn't say "pissed") and sad, just don't feel defeated.

Imagine how awful this experience would be for you and everyone else if you had still been drinking. One thing that booze does is make us self absorbed. Look at you now! Making sure the kids aren't freaked out. Dealing with the appointments. Keeping Mr SM calm. Imagine doing any of that with a raging hangover. Imagine how much worse your health would be. ALL that work is now paying off in spades. Now you can face that OP and the treatment knowing that you are in great shape (apart from the cancer, of course). This may not feel like your finest hour, but it is your strongest. That Dolphin was just checking in, making sure you were on track. And by the way chickie, we still want to see RESULTS from your novel writing !! Hugs and love, WB.xxJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09236064383725290818noreply@blogger.com
