My funky blues have left the building. Coming to the fundraiser on Tuesday night was the best, last minute, decision I’ve made as of late. I was not going to attend as I just finished two rounds in the MRI machine at Foothills (40 mins each) and was a sweaty, exhausted mess.
As we were driving home in the car, I had this need, this want, to go regardless that I didn’t feel well. I walked through the door and just walked into my bedroom, tossed on a outfit more suited for the occassion other than PJs…
As I walked into the venue, I was overwhelmed. Everywhere I looked, I saw people from every phase of my life - family, friends, parents of friends, high school friends, work buddies, people I don’t even know!
As I made my way through the crowd, I felt a renewal of hope. All of you were there for me…to see me heal…to see me fight…to see me emulate positivity. It was a saving grace that I went. Each of you, even though I didn’t get a chance to spend time with everyone, have helped to pull me out of this funk I’ve been in…and I’m forever thankful.
You are my angels. God has sent me everything and everyone that I need to meet this challenge. This is not easy and some days are good and some days are bad…but that’s cancer - unpredictable.
Once again, thank you for coming to support me and my family. We are so grateful for your love and support, not to mention all your comments of positive thoughts, ideas and suggestions to ensure that my healing bases are covered.
I wish I could send each and everyone of you a personal Thank You card -hugs and kisses included - but time is precious, my days are sort, so I trust you understand that time with my daughter, husband and healing is my priority. Just know that I think of you all and send thanks every night when I say my prayers.
Live life. No regrets. Pick Your Battles. Embrace Each Day. Be Grateful for the Things in You Life. Take NOTHING for Granted.
A cup of coffee, a tasty breakfast shared with family as the sun shines through the kitchen window is….a beautiful thing. It the start of a new day.
Love and Light
