Yup, this is me…

fab:

1. Who are you? I’m HRLori. I come to the rescue of any and all who are in need of anything within my reach.

2. What inspires you? Music—the sound of an acoustic guitar or a single violin or a heartbreaking lyric—as well as the color purple and a hug from a good friend.

3. Why does…

The surgery is done and now I have silicon implants and no ovaries.  This is exactly the way I want it.  I’m tired, feeling like I’ve been run over by a Mac truck and afraid to see what my body looks like, but it’s done.

It’s been a long journey.   Only 5 more rounds of Herceptin and 5 more years of Femara, but I’m okay.

This incredible woman says it all for me and probably for other breast cancer survivors as well.  

Just one thing to add, Cancer is not a pretty pink ribbon wrapped in a bow. It is messy and scary and bald and burnt.  And the beauty of this and every other woman battling cancer far outweighs that meaningless symbol.
