Winnie’s Warriors #10 | Recovery

My dear family & dearest friends:
 
It’s been three weeks since my surgery and I am recovering well and better than I had expected – especially after how I felt in the first few days after the surgery. The sunny days and warmer weather definitely helps with all the soreness, aches and pains. As someone wrote me, “at least with surgical pain, the pain gets less painful each and every day” – so true!
I have been diligently doing my physio exercises 3 times a day – like a good student – I keep at it while I visualize my new and improved LPGA golf swing that I hope to put back on the links before the end of this season! I have seriously considered in the past couple of days to walk over to the Don Valley Golf course and start practising my chipping and putting. After all, golf is all about the short game. Putt for dough and drive for show!!
 
Still waiting for the pathology report. Hopefully I will get them next week. It weighs on my subconscience I think. Causing some restless nights. Even though I feel it will all be fine, I just need to know. It’s been over 8 months since I found the lump that started this major shift and journey in my life. A little over 6 months since I shaved my hair off for charity and started my first chemo treatment. So much has happened. So now, just a few more days (I hope!) to hear 3 little words……that I know we all want to hear….. that the “Cancer is Gone”.  And, yes – the other 3 little words too:  “Love you all”!!
 
Oh, another important thing: I am freely laughing and accepting hugs again.  (big smile)
 
Fingers and toes crossed,
Winnie xoxo
