Hello JocelynK,
Sorry you have been thru the “ medical wringer”, what was done to patients years ago,was that was the info doctors were given at the time. Today there is more sophisticated thinking. The cancer you had was difficult to deal with. And yes some treatments are difficult on the heart, as are many medicines.
It is best to stay in during this pandemic. I hesitate to go anyplace, you just never know who can have the virus.
Do you have pets, or any crafts you enjoy working on.?
So many people on this connect do beautiful art work. If we all lived close together I think we would either take art classes, or be at each other’s homes being company to each other doing our art work.
Many of the women are widows also. I guess we are at that age, although my husband passed at a young age.
Stay well,.

Hi, jocelynk, I'm wondering if part of the reason you stopped walking after your husband passed away is that you are like I was after my beloved dog of 16 years died? It was incredibly difficult for me to resume walking again and I just stopped altogether for a long while. This Jan. I challenged myself to start again and named three days/week to do it as a new goal for the year. There are days when I really have to push myself out the door but even a short walk at the start of the day lifts my spirits. When Becky started this walking group, it was the perfect tonic to help keep me going. Are you up for a gentle dare? I walk on Tues/Thurs and Sat and so far, so good although there were some days when the walk had to be inside because of inclement weather. Wanna' join me next Tues through our cyber link? We can compare notes afterwards????
