It was great to see so many ladies in attendance this month as we welcomed Taryn Robinson – RN, Lymphedema Therapist as our Guest Speaker. Taryn started her presentation by asking the group questions about what they felt was not explained well enough to them about how their body would feel after cancer treatment, giving an opportunity for all present to participate in an open room discussion. Taryn then guided the ladies through gentle and very self-doable, Self – Drainage Massage Techniques to help our lymphatic system. Taryn’s message was how important movement is, even when travelling and unable to stand or move around, simply flexing your feet and wrists can be beneficial. Taryn ended her talk with a very relaxing guided meditation enjoyed by all. The ladies felt they learnt a lot from Taryn and have requested to ask her back in the new year.

A big thank you to the Forster Tuncurry Golf Ladies for their generous donation from their recent “Pink Day”. Verelle informed our group of it’s success and Lorraine will personally go and thank them for their generosity and on-going support of “Breast Friends”.
