Happy Holidays from a happy girl

I am wishing all of my friends, family, and blog followers a very happy holiday and new year! I found out there are some HL patients that follow me. I am not providing medical advice, but some helpful hints to get patients through the holidays (and all the fancy meals) in a great way based on my experiences!

- exercise! Don't let the holidays stop you...even a 30 minute walk is great to keep you moving! This will also help with fatigue (ask your dr or nurse to confirm you can exercise)
- eat! This is a great time of the year with yummy food...enjoy :). Something I'm still learning and tell friends with cancer is to eat bland. I've had to go back to basics with food and every time I eat something fancy or rich I don't don't feel well.
- be thankful. Even though we are fighting a battle this holiday season,we still have a lot to be thankful for. God is good.
