Treatment day one

My eyes have seen many faces with cancer come and go all day. (I've sat in the same chair all day) I've said many prayers for all of them and made sure I've smiled at every one of them, because I know they don't want to smile, but it feels good to have someone smile at you, care, and know we are in this together and want the same thing - healing!

The nurses here are true angels who walk in light!
I am in good hands

Day 2 tomorrow --- or should we call it round 2?

  1. I can't imagine what you are going through. Last year I was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver. I was so scared. I had a liver biopsy, and so many other tests. It was scary because I had never been really sick in my life. At 45, I was scared I had been given a sentence of death. But, my liver numbers are normal now. I have to be checked for liver cancer every 6 months. I dread it each time because I don't ever want to hear that word. Yet you have been diagnosed with it and you face it with bravery and a smile and such a positive outlook. I so admire you, really. All I did was cry and I couldn't imagine that my life would ever be the same. It's not, it's different and I struggle with that everyday. I am crying now, because you are such an inspiration and I wish I could be that way. God Bless you!

  3. I know what you mean about seeing so many people with cancer while your in the cancer center. Every one of those people including yourself has one thing on their mind and that is immorality. When I was told I had brain cancer and before it was diagnosed as MS after a month and a brain biopsy later. What I did during that time is shut out everything around me and started deep research on my past and getting my life and spirit in check.

  4. I've caught up on your blogs, and you can do this. You are such a strong and loveable person this will only bring your friends in closer. Take it easy, and remember that you are loved by more than just your family, and closest friends.

    Prayers, and Blessings to you and your whole family.

  5. I have been trying to think of what to say about the hair... recognizing that yours is exceptional and such a part of the way you express yourself. I can't come up with what I want to say other than that it really sucks and I want to acknowledge that. Also that your beauty exceeds anything cancer can do to you. It comes from your joy and your kindness and the fierceness with which you attack life.
