So for the first time in my life, I went out this weekend and bought myself a bikini to wear when I go visit family in Florida next weekend. The bottom is a size small. I've come such a long way. I beat breast cancer, went thru a divorce and had surgery on my ankle.

I still have some goals to meet, but just so happy right now.

Thanks you for reading my topic!

Happy Sheila. :flowerforyou:

    Thank you for the beautiful words. It hasn't been easy, and if it weren't for my 7 yo son, who knows where I would be right now.

    Xxxx

    First, congrats on beating breast cancer. I had 3 aunts who were not so lucky, so wishing you continued remission.

    And also congrats on the bikini! Awesome NSV.
