This is an easy little dance, but it still feels good to do.
It was written for Sarah from Metairie which is on the outskirts
of New Orleans Louisiana U.S.A. I hope her beginner dancers can
manage this without too many problems!
Something’s Got A Hold On Me could be my song at the moment, cause
Something has surely got a hold oF me and try as I might I haven’t
been able to shake it off. They say that one in six women will get breast
cancer, but I never thought for one moment that I would be one of those six!
I was a registered nurse until the time of my retirement a few years ago,
and have seen many ladies with breast cancer during this time.
But you know, it is an entirely different world from this side of the fence!
Now I am the one having the tests and the injections and the treatment every 3 weeks.
When I go home I still have to deal with it all, not like it was in the past when I gave
my all to my patients for 8 hours, but when I went home I just forgot about those sick people… until the next day when I did it all over again!
Lucky we have linedancing to lose ourselves in isn’t it. When things get tough
for me, I just write a new dance. Sometimes that has to be in my head because I can’t
physically do it, but that works for me, and then I write it down later. Music and dance keeps me sane and I thank YOU for being a linedancer and
ALSO all those lovely people who keep on sending me music and requests for dances! LUVYA!
See you on the floor sometime.... Jan
