I don't think I have said that for a while...it's time! I am fine...just sad today. A very close friend was diagnosed with lymphoma...I spent the afternoon at the hospital with her until her family could arrive to be with her. It's just so overwhelming and my heart just aches for her...going thru all the tests, reports, visits with doctors all brought back so many memories....
My friend Kate is doing well after her mastectomy but she will start chemo soon...it's such a scary time...waiting to see how it will be...she is a trooper!
A young Mom (age 35) died this weekend after a hard fought battle with breast cancer...I knew her from my online support group...her 5 year old son's b-day was today...his Mommy should have been there.
Cancer is an evil beast....it just seems like he is turning up too frequently lately...please pray for a cure and for those that fight the battle......

Hey Jan,
I'm so sorry about your friend.
I've read every one of your entries. I know how hard you have fought, I am so proud of you. I can't imagine everything you have struggled with and had to deal with but you are such a blessing to so many people and I know God has you right where He wants you. I will pray for a cure, I am so sorry you have to go through this. I wish I could help you carry the load, but I am here for you if there's anything you need.
Hang in there baby girl.
Sending lots of hugs and love your way.
Hey,
I forgot to sign my entry.
Love Valerie
HI Jan - I hate cancer too. It touches so many of our lives. I don't think you could talk to any person on this earth who didn't at least know someone who has or had cancer! Pretty crazy. So many times things just don't make sense. I am so happy that you are doing so well. I was pretty nervous when I read your title. Got a big lump in my throat. Wonder how long it will take before insurance lets you know about that treatment? Pretty sad it comes down to that.... I hope they say yes and this will be just another peace of mind for you. Have a wonderful day Jan! Love you - - - - Sue
I'm with Sue, way to raise my blood pressure! Read that title and panicked! I am glad you were there for your friend and I can see how every person you know that gets this terrible disease really hits home with you. You just keep getting yourself better so you can be there to support them when they need it.
Love you!
Kay
It must seem like your are surrounded by cancer. It's lucky for your friend that you are there to support her. She has a long road ahead of her but it's good that she knows cancer can be beat. You are the proof.
Take lots of care!

Hey Jan - I'm going to MIA for a while. Leaving for Mississippi tomorrow - then to Vermilion on 7/25.... so just know that I am thinking of you and hoping each day is a better day for you! Feel good! Love you! Sue
