I haven't posted anything for two months! How is that possible. Life has been quiet and uneventful (for me, thankfully). The devastation in western North Carolina is , well, it's hard to describe. Small towns basically wiped out by flooding. People are still being rescued, more than three days after the storm.
It has been 37 years since my cancer diagnosis, always good to celebrate that milestone. My prognosis at the time was, AFTER chemotherapy and radiation therapy, I had a 40-60% chance of surviving five years. I sometimes forget what a dark time that was for me and my family. But here I am, still.
It's nearly impossible to avoid the political storm in the country. In less than 3 weeks, early voting begins in South Carolina. I can't wait to cast my vote!
Here's a photo from 2009, taken in Bloemfontein, South Africa.
