In April, PBS aired a special about Beat Cancer Boot Camp. Developed and run by Anita "Sarge" Kellman, here's a program where cancer, cardio and comraderie change lives.
I first met Anita -- a.k.a. Sarge -- and learned about her program at Miraval a couple of years ago. She inspired me to improve my exercise routine. Anita may look tough, but she has a heart as big as Texas, even checking up on me periodically via email to see how my exercise program is progressing.
Physical and emotional fitness is a key element of my efforts to be a Healthy Survivor. Being physically strong helps me be mentally strong. And the stronger I am, the more challenges I can take on. The stronger I am, the more I can enjoy all that is right in my world. And the stronger I am, the less afraid I am of what tomorrow may bring, because I feel as ready as I can be.
Thanks, Sarge, for being part of my team! (salute)
