What's the deal?

I have always been strong, both mentally and physically, and healthy. Since I was 17, I have always had physically challenging jobs and been a "hands on" kind of person. I had a "natural" childbirth, and I am very independent. There isn't anything that someone can do for me, that I cannot do myself.

Now, at age 44, I have to learn to live all over again. I have to learn to slow down, ask for help, let people help me and depend on someone else to make sure things in my life are getting done.

You see, I was just diagnosed with Breast Cancer and, from what I hear, I will never, ever be the same person I was before the diagnosis!
