I know it has been a long time since I have posted an entry and I apologize, no excuse!! After my surgery on my back I settled into my mom and dad’s house down the street from mine and kind of went on a mental vacation from all of this. It is so hard to deal with day in and day out. I sometimes have to turn it off and “pretend” it is not really on my plate.
I think about a year and a half ago when I was healthy and not fighting every day just to get around and I yearn for those days. Now I feel very isolated and slooooooooooooow and I am! I came home from the hospital in a wheel chair and now have graduated to a walker with sometimes still the wheel chair. My strength is getting there but not totally there yet. I just got done with 16 radiation appointments so I have mostly gone to doctors appt.’s then back home with sheer exhaustion. I also want my back totally healed before I go too many places for fear of any infection.
I wish this were more positive but I think that is why I am reaching out. I need more prayers prayers prayers. I have felt kind of empty lately and know I need spiritual fulfillment. I was on a good path for a while and have strayed and I feel it tremendously! So many of you have been so faith full to me and my situation and I thank you for that. I still feel so blessed from all of you! Please keep my family and I in your prayers! May God bless each one of you as you read this!!

Andrea,
I think about you and your family all the time and please know that you are in our prayers constantly. I see your kids and your parents going back and forth to your house and their house and I send a little prayer every time. My heart goes out to you all and know that sooooo many people are pulling for you that you don’t even know. It is so hard to know what to say to you. I just think about what it would be like to be in your shoes and I pray. I pray that every day you see a glimmer of hope and feel an eternity of love from all of those around you.
Andrea -
May your mind and heart be clear of all things cancer.
As you close your eyes –
May you see Spring’s first flower
May you hear the birds song of an early morning.
May you taste cool clear water
May you feel new grass between your toes
May your soul float on a gentle breeze
May you heart be filled with all the goodness of the world
Mary
