FLIGHT by steph I have a wonderful friend. He wrote this song for me.... I was so touched that I wanted to share the lyrics....he is an incredible musician and song writer...I wanted to thank him publicly for his love, and his constant encouragement...I will be having my surgery on Monday...In the meantime...Frank Barrese will be in the recording studio putting the last touches on his tribute..Thank you my wonderful confidante...with love, steph WHEN STEPHANIE SMILES There's nothing so sweet as when Stephanie smiles The sun shines much brighter, there's blue skies for miles The breezes feel blessed, just to blow through her hair And I am in heaven whenever she's near There's nothing so sad as when Stephanie's gone The birds in the trees sing a sad, lonesome song And I start to hunger for her gentle touch But I can't let on that I miss her so much So I suffer in silence and wait patiently Until Stephanie smiles at me Stephanie lives in a wo

stephanie mastini and breast cancer/an update

    A long due update... I needed to absorb this new diagnosis.. it's true..I have been diagnosed with breast cancer again, and now I need to have a bilateral mastectomy..... I hope that I can chronicle this journey and come out on top...help others by telling my story... I firmly believe that this is a new chapter ...a difficult one at best, but I hope that all the support I have shown to my "Forgotten Ones" will come back to me...I believe there is a reason for everything in life...but still, it SUCKS..to be blunt...having a support team is so important, and that is what I have been working on the last few weeks..it has been exahusting; sometimes cancer society will get a call from me at 2 AM they have a 24 hour hot line called YME?(I will share the number in my next blog)... I have cried a river, and now I am at the angry stage but getting to the acceptance part...I will be having reconstruction immediately, so I will have those 18 year old breasts in one year..!nev
