MY Birthday

It is amazing how 20 different people can be in the same room where something happens and you will have 20 different stories of that event.
I write this since I seem to be repeating myself and it hurts every time I have to explain it again..
For my own personal reasons, I do not like the day I was given as my birthday.  It has too many hurt feelings and memories attached to it.  But I learned from a VERY WISE WOMAN (love you Aunt Carole Mercer!) that I can have what ever day I want to celebrate my birthday.

I need things to be positive in my life.  I know this day has happy memories for others...again, 20 different people-20 different view points...

Last year on July 24 something wonderful happened.  I had a double mastectomy and started on a path to healing.  I found that I need to be healthy not only in body but in mind and spirit as well.  July 24th represents this for me!  I love this day!  I love everything about it!  Also not to forget, as I was reminded by my friend Jen Bohn today, that if I visit Utah on July 24th there will be fireworks to help celebrate my day!  AWESOME!
