But you do and having your wonderful little man and your family gives you that strength. I think that you have every right to rant and rave and kick and scream... Let it all out...

All we have is our love and prayers and we will keep on sending them to you in big waves.<br />Hugs xxStitching Nonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08350627941575473528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35118113.post-83526515463597101032013-09-06T16:54:39.677-03:002013-09-06T16:54:39.677-03:00Sending you hugs.

I hope this doesn't sound trite, but my mom told me when I was at the age to start learning grown up stuff that, as long as someone is around who remembers us, we are never gone. And it gives me a lot of comfort in regards to my gramma, who was stolen from me before I was ready to let her go, because I have that little piece of her in me to pass on to her great-grand-daughter. Your husband will pass that to Junior. And I also think that our loved ones don't leave us. i can't explain it fully, but I feel my gramma in so many ways. I just can't touch her, that I know. If she can come back . . . <br /><br />Please know I pray for you when I can. I know that we've never met, but I am sorry that you have to go through this, and I keep your family in my thoughts.

I am inspired by your courage and tenacity. Although I just recently came upon your blog, I read back into last year...I want you to know you have touched my life. Every day is a celebration, each moment is precious. Live strong, think strong and be strong....with a few deserving rants in between. Your son can be nothing short of proud of the incredible person his mother IS! Thinking of you, DH and darling son, sending prayers and positive vibes your way. BTW he is an adorable little man . :)P.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14328252354433307370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35118113.post-63160163829976142572013-08-29T11:15:23.071-03:002013-08-29T11:15:23.071-03:00Cathey you rang all you want sweetie.

You are covered by our many fervent prayers for your healing. Perhaps by now you have a test result, as I am pretty tardy in reading and replying here. I have witnessed the power of prayer in healing a good friend from so many cancers last year--she is such a blessing to us all! And God can do the same for you! You are a terrific Survivor!

I couldn't even imagine going through what you and your family are going through right now. Emotional rollercoaster to say the least.

I say rant all you want. Scream, kick, flail and wallow. If it were me I would be wallowing on my back, legs and arms in the air screaming for all I am worth. I think it is a very healthy thing to do because you need to have an actual physical outlet for your feelings. I also think it is good to have some anger, some defiance against that frigging cancer. I don't think you need to go quietly. Being a retired nurse, I can tell you that while cancer is a cruel and unrelenting disease, attitude plays a major role in your prognosis. I lost my father to smoking related cancer back in 1991 when he was 56, one year younger than I am now. When he heard the diagnosis, he pretty much took to the couch and was gone in 5 months. I have also known people with very advanced cancer that have gone on for years, and it seemed to have a lot to do with attitude. I don't think you need to worry about your adorable little boy, your husband and family will see to it that you are never forgotten if that time comes. Your husband will manage because when it comes right down to it, what choice will he have, but you will have prepared him and your family as well as his will help him along. You need to concentrate your efforts and thoughts into being strong and not giving in. I know this is all my lame attempt at a pep talk, and very easy for me to say, but I do believe in my heart that God is with you and is there to help to strengthen and comfort, so enlist his help each and every moment. I do pray for you and your family every day, and it appears you have many friends that are doing the same. You must be a very special person. capecodgirl565https://www.blogger.com/profile/16084745119981460292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35118113.post-44350603307669362372013-08-16T19:30:06.081-03:002013-08-16T19:30:06.081-03:00What can I say that others haven't already sai...What can I say that others haven't already said - just know we are all here for you and rooting for you xxMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14054810226159861473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35118113.post-62363113199903888052013-08-16T16:00:44.957-03:002013-08-16T16:00:44.957-03:00Rant all you want.
