Welcome Family and Friends to "What's the latest with Sara! " blog !

Since I have been diagnosed with breast cancer, I have been told numerous times that I am on a journey. I have known for almost that long that I am not alone on the journey. I learned quite awhile back that what happens to one also impacts all of those in that person's life in varying degrees.
The purpose of this blog is to allow you to check in whenever you have the time to see what the latest is. I know that I need you-your love, prayers, testimonies, and support. I am richly blessed with loving, caring, amazing family and friends. I am so grateful for you. Thank you for your part on this journey.

End of first phase

I am really grateful for this week.  I feel more like "getting things together" to recover from the surgery last week and preparing for treatment next week. It has felt like the conclusion of the first phase and prep for the next.  
What I have learned is that it helps when I take the ibprofen for pain on time, eat when it is time, and rest a lot.  Sometimes I have gotten busy thinking about something or visiting with someone, etc. and miss doing those things in a timely manner.  As a result, I don't do as well.  I guess that can go down as "a lesson in obedience".
Last Saturday was our big annual Primary boys' activity.  I wanted to be there, but I knew it wasn't wise.  As a result I experienced a new joy of leadership as we worked together to prepare and the wonderful people I work with carried out the plans we made together.  It was exciting to hear from them the details of the activity and to see the pics taken there.  I knew again we were all being blessed.  
Yesterday I took a walk in my lawn with my camera and recorded the "signs of spring".  I love spring flowers and buds.  Today the rain to nourish them and help they to grow. 
Thanks for your cards, emails, visits, etc.
