A Lap Worth Taking
Today I am grateful for each 24-hour-period I get. As a recovering alcoholic and breast cancer survivor, I try not to take my days for granted. I am also grateful for our dog Oliver's personality. He is such a gift to our family and that personality is one-of-a-kind.
Last evening I had the opportunity to do the survivor's lap at the Hastings Bridge to a Cure, our local cancer fundraiser. I joined some of my breast cancer support group buddies for that lap, then my husband and son joined me for the caregivers' lap. It always touches me to take part in events like this. It is a chance to reflect on how deeply blessed I am and to also think about those who have died of cancer and those who are currently in treatment.
Those were definitely laps worth taking.
