Now at week three post GCS preformed by Dr. Ley on 01/05/2018 feeling pretty good today. Moved up to the #2 dilator this AM oh that was an experience I can say a size queen I will never be. Since being on no AA's and back on EV my mood has improved by leaps and bounds, new breast pain ;ie new growth, better sleep. Trying to get back to work slowly and it is a process. I am thankful for my partner Susan, my good friend Nanci and my dad for the emotional support he has been AMAZING.
My top 10 list post GCS
10.) Not riding in a car
09.) Netflix and Movies on Demand
08.) Clean sheets on the bed daily
07.) A locking bedroom door
06.) Can set the phone for periord of do not disturb
05.) Places I sub contract for and them understanding my recovery time
04.) The Team at Kaiser Health care and Dr. Currie my OB
03.) Every day I can take a breath and wake up being me
02.) My friends who have stepped up to help around the house
01.) My Partner Susan, My dad Bill and my children for being there, being honest with me and not walking away when they could have.

Keep rockin' your recovery Margaret!!! You're doing great sister!!! Love the list!!! 🌺🌻🌸😀

Let go of the things that no longer serve you... Let go of the pretense of the false persona, it is not you... Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸

 Hi Margaret,

  Let me add my congratulations to the list too Margaret. It does sound like you are doing well and have had some darn good support around you. Keep up being positive in your recovery. I can not add any value to what you are going through but I can thank you for sharing it with the rest of us. Who knows someday I may be able to benefit from yours and all the rest of my friends that have gone through GCS experiences.

Hugs,
  Laurie
