Pamela,
It was very important to me to resume as many of the regular activities of my life as soon as I possibly could during and after treatments. Getting back to normal and getting my life back was always on my mind. And I have done that. However, I do feel that I was given a 2nd chance, so I've tried to focus and regaining those things that I enjoy that are not harmful to me, and not do the things that were harmful to me, like drinking beer every night (which I loved to do).
I think you should get back to your life routine and not feel guilty. What does guilt have to do w/ anything anyway? Having said that, tanning is definetly bad for you and I'm sure you look just great w/o it, will look even better as you age w/o it, and can find other ways to enjoy that 15 minutes. Buy a nice relaxing meditation cd. Stop tanning not because of guilt, stop tanning because it is harmful to you is my opinion.
God Bless.
Rick
