Fearless Women

Quote From: kellyg05

  

I don't know why I am writing. In fact, as I write I feel like crying. I just feel like such a loser. I feel so ashame, I haven't worn short in I don't remember hhow many years. I love to swim, but I wouldn't be caught dead in a bathing suit. I have no self-esteem. My one dream in life was to have my own house. Of course I had to seperate from my husband to do it. So the day was finally here. It was August of 2002. The same day of my signing I found out I had breast cancer. I got my house just in time.  After I don't know how many surgeries, chemo and radiation, I had a place of my own to be sick  in. I could come home from work and take off my wig and prosthesis and not have to worry about anybody seeing me. Now I am not only way over weight, I feel like a freak. I guess that's why I can't seem to get motivates. I know my weight is not my only problem. I just don't know where to start. I  feel like such a mess.  

I am a 24 year old woman. I know where you are coming from when you said that  you havent worn shorts in years or a bathing suit. I want you to know you are not a freak and you are not alone in this. I would like for you to look for the book Fearless Women. There are many women in the book from all walks of life who have walked down the road you are traveling. One of those women I know. She is an awesome woman as are you! She has been through the husband, cancer and much more.  I dont know all the answers or words to share with you to make everything better, But I do know that I will start this journey here with you! You are brave to come here tell your story
