Fred Astaire's International Dance Competition in Orlando

After I received the news of needing to have my bladder removed and the fact that I will be wearing a bag attached to my belly for the rest of my life I decided on the last day that you could sign up about a month ago to compete in Fred Astaire's IDC in Orlando with my dance instructor, David.  Didn't know if I'd be able to wear the right clothing for this in the future, or do the flips in the dance routines.  I had a a little less than a month to practice, but we were just doing 2 dances - the ones I did for Fred Astaire's Showcase event back on 5/31/19 (check out my blog entry for that date with pictures from the event).  Nicole and Tim came to cheer me on, and I just had a blast - so glad I did it!  I even got to meet Tony Dovolani who used to be on Dancing With The Stars (wish I had had the guts to ask him to get a picture with me!).  I didn't get any pictures of my first dance in my red dress, but we did take some pictures after my 2nd dance, so here they are!
