A day I didnt think I was going to get.

Morning just wanted to share my feelings - today I am going on my work christmas party I could not attend last year. Last December I had just had the news that I probably had ov due to ascites building up etc etc so just had to wait for my operation in january. Never thought I would get back to work or still be here now - I was always given worse case senario. Finished chemo in june. Feel so lucky to be here. Hugs to everyone going through this.

Hope you really enjoyed the Christmas Party, Anastasia, and have a very Happy Christmas. I bet you'll appreciate things so much more now. That's about the only good thing about having had this awful disease. We are so grateful for things we took for granted before. May you have many more Christmases. I'm Celebrating my thirteenth Christmas - having been sure I'd never see another one!! I had my first Chemo three days before Christmas in 2006. Love, Solange 😊
