Hi, first of all, I’m very sorry that haven’t been able to post recently… I had problems with the internet connection (at work, and at home) and due to work issues, I wasn’t able to stop by on a computer somewhere else… sorry for that…
Those were three days almost, and after that, I had to travel to the city where I was born to spend Christmas Eve with my family… unfortunatelly one day before leaving, one of my best friend’s brother in law (her sister is a great person and also my friend) died… he was so young and an excellent person, he must be next to God right now… so, while in Cd. Victoria, the same friend’s father died too! man, what a difficult situation… sometimes, we don’t understand why things like that happen, but, I guess she’s gonna be strong as well as her family…
I tried to shred while being absent but nutrition hasn’t been great either… so I guess I will have to wait until next year to eat the way I was eating before Christmas….
There’s something I haven’t talk about.. but, right now, my stepfather is at Cuba, with his family and I’m going to travel on January 1st to Cuba, I guess I’m not gonna have internet there, so I’m not sure about posting… the thing here is that, one of my stepsisters (the younger) has a health problem… when she was 14, she began having a weird knee pain… she was in the Cuban Junior National Team (basketball) at only 14 her height was 1.87 mts.. really really tall… so… after several check ups, they diagnosed her with cancer… don’t know the name in english but it’s osteosarcoma (one of the most agressive types of cancer) .. so, after chimiotherapy they amputated her leg…
The story isn’t finished there… after two years of regular checkups, her other leg began to hurt… same procedure… right now, against all odds (they say that type of cancer goes up in the body, doesn’t jump from one leg to another). I guess.. it’s another type of cancer but chimio has already started, I guess.. her other leg is going to suffer the same procedure… I really have to talk this in the most cold way… but it’s been something really hard for her, such a young girl, so talented, to make a long story short… her height right now is 1.92… she continued growing after they amputated her leg….
I’m going to Cuba on January 1st, and I’m going to come back on January 11th… So, I guess that just returning from my trip, I’m going to start the RTP transformation system.. that’s the reason I’m not starting it right now… so, enough for today… I want to apologize because I wasn’t able to post… my stomach is not very well yet, I guess that infection was pretty agressive with my stomach… I want to apologize with Suzette, ’cause I was shredding really hard with her until Christmas, and wasn’t able to post my final results… and a huge apoligize to all of you who have been supporting me while on this journey…. Ron, Mike, Suzette, Adam, Jason and Mark, here I am, and when I’m able, I check up on you guys, but wasn’t able to post…. thank you, a lot for asking if I was ok…. I’m here but wasn’t able to post… I’m still with you guys!!! Oh, and Merry Christmas! (a little bit late)…

Celina, was worried about you..but now know. It must be very hard for the family…of both situations you talk about. Do not worry about the end of the Christmas shred. I kind of trailed off there at the end…it is hard this time of year with the holidays plus the busyness at my work. I did finish strong with the 33 pushups on Christmas Day! Woo Hoo! Thanks for all of your support and joining me on my Christmas Shred! It was fun to be doing it with someone who is so energetic and genuine! Safe travels for you to Cuba! We’ll see you in the New Year! Be Blessed!
Hello Celina! Glad to hear you’re doing better. I hope you have a safe and fun trip to Cuba! January 11 will be about the same time I am starting the RTP system also, so if you would like a partner to shred with I would be happy to go through it together with you. Just let me know.
Hi Celina, glad to know you’re okay. So sad to read about some of the people you know having great difficulties. Makes one really want to maximize the time we are given. Have a safe trip!
Hi Celina – so sorry to hear about the recent sadness amongst your family and friends. I know you will be strong for them, and them for you, in 2009, and we’ll be here to support you as well!
Hey Celina! I’m very happy that you hadn’t left us. Sorry about all the bad news. Have a safe trip to Cuba and hope to see you back in full shred-mode in the new year.
Hi Celina, I was worried about you too. I’m sorry to hear the bad news that has affected your best friend’s brother in law and your step sister. As Ron said it makes you really appreciate your health and the time we have now.
I look forward to seeing you back in action on January 11. We’ll be here for you.
Adam
