by

Thanks so much to Abbe for sharing her story: September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. I started off writing this blog with all the difficult details of my experience 10 years ago with ovarian cancer.

Now I'm curious: do you have a specific arms workout? would you share? I want your arms. First?  Totally not my plan when I blogged about the sleep question on Monday. Next? Thank you.

  I have to confess, up till now, I've bumbled through life pretty much guilt-free. Guilt (& her bitchy BFF shame) simply didn't have much of a place in my life.

Her cancer was a blessing and a curse all at the same time.  Here is her story: The week before Christmas, 1997, my Mother ended up in the emergency room in immense pain from what she thought was pleurisy. She had been sick with the flu and ... Continue Reading
