Some LIFE AFFIRMING ITALIAN TREASURES

​I must say I'm feeling fed up today. All that time I was having cancer treatment, I felt like I'd had to step out of the stream of life, while everyone else was in the flow, swimming on by. Having taken my medicine and lived with the possibility that I might die, I am in remission and fully fit. The stream of life, however, has stopped. THIS WAS NOT THE PLAN! I spent thirteen months putting life on hold and petulant though I may seem (I am very petulant), it's just not fair! It's true that I don't feel left out anymore but I wanted to rejoin the world not have everyone else join me in this bizarre waiting game.

So, now that we are united in longing to have our lives back and wondering if we will die, ​I'm sharing photos, taken this time last year in Siena and Florence., None of us will be visiting Italy in the foreseeable future but I hope they bring you a little JOY. .
