August 21st, 2025

Well I haven't been good about writing on here on a regular basis.  Life's been crazy lately.  Craig had his knee replacement surgery on August 13th. He's doing great but it's alot of work taking care of him. Just alot of lifting and moving around that I'm not used to.  He usually takes care of me. I had an annual mammogram before his surgery but they saw small calcifications on that. I had to do a diagnostic mammogram after his surgery.  Then they requested a biopsy for clarification.  I have that Sept 3rd and going crazy waiting.  Stressed to the max. A cancer diagnosis would change everything for us.
In the meantime, I'm also preparing to do a talk at Sojourner Family Peace Center's annual fundraiser, Be the Light Event on Sept 12th. It's their 50th Anniversary and I'm the only survivor speaking. I'm so excited for this opportunity.

Wow! Life's been crazy! Getting ready for Craig to have knee surgery.  Doing therapy pre surgery.  I started therapy today for my head injury. Balance and dizziness issues.  I'm just basically relearning exercises I've done in the past.  I'll try to keep up with them this time.
Craig had to do a pre check in for his dr's appt, and he told me to do it. But I was honest about his mental health, and they called. He was surprised but was answering honestly.  He downplayed it a bit, but I think he's starting to take his mental health a little more seriously.  At least, I'm hoping. 
I've also been busy writing my talk for Sojourner Family Peace Centers' annual fundraising gala. I will be the only survivor speaking this year, as it's the 50th Anniversary this year. So it's a bit different this year. I'm so honored to be chosen for this.
