Today a friend emailed me about another friend who has recently been diangnosed with ovarian cancer. She sent me contact information (with the woman's permission) and I spent an hour and a half on the phone answering questions and sharing. It felt really, REALLY good to be able to be of some help and to pay it forward a bit.

Also, I met a woman at yoga last night (it was her first time there) and I was wearing one of my Survivor t-shirts which opened up a conversation about cancer in her family. We talked to freely and openly that my yoga teacher came over and asked if we knew one another...we laughed and said no. It was one of those instant connections and a knowingness that a new friend has been found. Bonus? She lives maybe 3 miles from my house. :)

Love to all,

Michelle
