Guest guest Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hey all, There's an annual Balkan music and dance festival that I like to go to. It's always held the weekend after Thanksgiving. When I went last year, I was just starting to get really sick. I was so dizzy and nauseated and felt so terrible that I could hardly dance at all and had to leave early. From there things went downhill fast. Last night I went to the festival somewhat cautiously (3 weeks post explant)and I have to tell you I had a FABULOUS time! Hearing that sweet soulful music was heaven on earth for me. I danced my ass off 'til 2 am! Today I feel like I was beaten to a pulp by an angry mob, but I'm telling you, a month ago I would not have been able to do what I did-- it would have killed me-- and anyway, IT WAS WORTH IT! I'm definitely getting better. Yippee! So for any of you fence-sitters, believe me, you WILL get better and you'll be much happier feeling healthy rather than sick. You'll have a life. Love, Melinda P.S. There's a great movie out now called Everything Is Illuminated, based on the novel by Jonathon Safran Foer. It's about this young Jewish guy who goes to Poland to try and find out what happened to his family during the Holocaust. It's a good movie, would be worth the price of admission for the soundtrack alone--it's fabulous Balkan music with those Eastern European time signatures and all those horns...Check it out!
