Lucky 7

Aug 15, 2010

Why Lucky 7?   I am a breast cancer survivor with a wonderful husband and 5 great children.  We meet all our challenges with a laugh and always ask ok, what's next?!! We raised a little over $1,500 for american cancer society this year.  We had 3 babies in one year ( 1 in January and twins in December)!  So many people tell us our lives are like a reality tv show. 
The chemotherapy  gave me arthritis and extra weight. I started cancer treatment just 5 months after having my last baby, so I still had lots of baby weight.  I know wls is the best thing for me and my family. At 42 being overweight with arthritis its scarey looking at my future. My husband gained weight with me during each pregancy ( 4 children in 4 yrs) so he is also having wls. We both work (opposite shifts so we can be home with kids) active with all three school PTA's and volunteer with a nonprofit twins group. Busy lives, but ready for healthy changes!!!!
