Florida glorious days

-
You may know that the weather is unseasonably warm. Everyday we take the girls for a run on the beach, which we have to ourselves, we sit outside and Elliott takes a bike ride. There isn't much on the strip and we haven't ventured off it but we have cable so we watched the 30 year old virgin for the second time. We head to Fort Myers, where the beach is dog friendly, we know someone there and it is within striking distance of perhaps a family reunion in St Petersburg. I can't post pics because we are using so much data since the wi fi here is non existent.
We think we should submit this one to some magazine??

Maybe being in such a happy gathering did it. I am not going to speculate but I came home and cried.  I cried for my daughters and my best friend who lives on the other side of the country. I cried in fear of what I would hear from the BRCA test. I cried for what was.

After Surgery: What is it like

 3/15/2022 Although I am on pain meds and a little loopy, I wanted to get my surgery day down before I forget. I don't know if this is the protocol of all breast surgeries, but I saw a lot of people!  At 7:45 I was taken into the pre-op area where I was asked my name and birthdate a dozen times. So many times, that when a woman walked in, I just said my name and birthdate. She laughed and said that she knew my name but not my birthdate. "I'm Dr. Baker." Well of course I didn't recognize her. I only met her one time, and she had a net on her head and a mask and plastic covering her face. She had on scrubs so there was no white coat. In any case I was asked by lots of nurses health questions, got an IV put in with at some point saline and an antibiotic and off I went to Nuclear Medicine and saw a machine that looked like it was from outer space. I wondered if this is also the radiation machine but I didn't ask. Mitch, an RN, spent a long time explaining what wou
