I’ve Felt…I’ve Learned

I am a different person today than I was a week ago, a better person.

I felt lonely, anxious, curious,  frazzled, frightened, disoriented. These are feelings that cancer warriors, survivors, caretakers feel often.

By the 2nd day, I  became part of this “bicycle family”. We  cycle not only for fun, exercise, comraderie, to achieve personal goals.  We cycle for a CAUSE.

 We are battling, symbolically and literally,  with this P3C3 Ride to Austin.  Here in Austin, we will  join  “zillions” of others in this  CHALLENGE to CONQUER CANCER.  We will make a $200,000+/-  contribution for cancer research and treatment through the LIVESTRONG Foundation.  Our thanks to those in the Upstate SC, NC area, family and friends from other places, who contributed to make this a reality.

As a 62 year young woman, this has been an experience unlike any other.
I am so thankful to those who made this journey possible.  Many encouraged me and some inspired me (one in particular). Please call on me when you want or need.   In 62 years, I have struggled with  family and friends.  You don’t need to know the particulars.  Others of this group have expressed that very well.   Must close now-need to drive the van to our next destination.
