I put off having my first breast cancer screening for a year. When I finally put it on my calendar, inspired by Robin Roberts on "Good Morning America," it saved my life. Now a healing circle of my besties helps me beat the disease, one text, one phone call, one heart-to-heart, one hug and one appointment at a time.
Men walk away. Women? We do the work and have the get-it-off-your-chest sister-to-sister convo. There was no way I could have said something in my last talk with Judy to justify throwing away our friendship without so much as a goodbye.
Stress and anxiety were messing with my mood, marriage and sleep. I knew massage would help relax my body — but I am shocked and thrilled at how well it quiets my mind.
