NO PAIN, NO GAIN....

Within the last month or so, I started a workout program at this gym and have a coach...AB. She is incredible, fit and a great sense of humor and most important she keeps me going when I want to quit. I shared my story and with that, a great SUPPORT was born.

Always get nervous for my checks with Dr. Elia. I am sure things are good with me. Pain, well still have it, hopefully I can get off my cancer meds that causes it and my weight.

I can't even wrap my head around that...all I heard is CANCER....thank God that Tim was with me. I struggle was definitely real and it continues to be my new normal. As hard as it is, facing it head on can be difficult. I am so blessed to have my family and friends for the endless support and prayers.
