Global sisterhood!
Purpose: to document my recovery path after bilateral mastectomy. Hopefully this helps other women who are confronted with a breast cancer diagnosis and seek information about recovery timelines and returning to active exercise, possibly at a competitive level.

International Womens Weightlifting Grand Prix
This competition took place in Nagold, Germany, June 8-10. There were around 100 women weightlifters from 16 countries, ages 10 to 58. There was a DJ playing encouraging music when a lifter walked onto the stage, the audience clapped in rhythm, and, as we stepped up to the bar to get ready to lift - silence. It was fun, and a great opportunity to make new friends.
