Last weekend I felt so blessed to be celebrating my dear friend Cindy's recovery from cancer. Her diagnosis came out of the blue last November, and suddenly she was going thru chemotherapy. She always maintained a brave face, and has been an inspiration to all who know her. What joyous news on May 23rd when her Petscan showed the chemo had done its job. Thank you "Big G"! We all had such a fun evening out with this amazing woman - here's to you Cindy! She's currently continuing the celebration in Germany with her husband...
While in Georgia, we hit the sites:
Olympic rings at Centennial Park
Nana and Livy at ABC...I mean, CNN
Georgia Aquarium - alligators, Livy tried to reach over the top of exhibit (no! no!)
Horse drawn carriage tour of Savannah
Tybee Island beach - it was SO hot the ocean was like a bath
Nana reading to Livvy in cottage
This past week has allowed me to reflect on the sweet simple blessings of life. Spending time with family and friends trumps everything else, and its so important to live in those moments, to cherish the bonds and connections we have to each other. Life flips in an instant, and there are no guarantees. Be true to yourself, love freely, give meaningful hugs, practice kindness and patience, and don't forget to have fun.
Thank you to everyone who made this a memorable trip. See you at the beach!
