As I stated in my "introduce yourself" thread that lately I am most passionate about fueling my body with good food. Some times it's hard to go into a restaurant and be good, but I've decided to decline the fries and switch it for a veggie instead. Broccoli isn't as good a french fries, but my body loves it better!

What is your passion lately?

~ Breast Cancer Awareness ~

I had genetic testing based on a very strong history of breast & ovarian cancer in my family and I do have a genetic mutation. So based on my results (85% chance of getting cancer), I had a mastectomy and hysterectomy with ovary removal at 35 (Dec 2005).

I thank God that this testing exists!!! My mom died at 50 and I have a 97% chance to avoid that because of having the knowledge. :)

Aromotherapy bath oils. I am battling cancer at the moment and find the aroma and calming effects of these oils are wonderful. I'm finding myself in the bath tub 4 times a day for relaxation. It really works and aids sleep too.

I am grateful for the testing as well. I think that's really awesome. I work in a mammogram center and see the ages of those that come in. I have to admit; it scares me! Do you or have you participated in the walks before?

Wow, that's great that you have found that and it is helping you and making you relaxed! Is there a specific brand that you prefer? And a fragrance?
