sometimes life throws you a curve ball. perhaps i knew one was coming. perhaps that's why i started this blog. today of all days i got the news.
dcis breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ. yes me.
so what to do? I choose. to look at this as good news. not quite the good news I was hoping for. but good news all the same. non-invasive. contained. and to say well....why not me?
so i look upward to God and say thanks. thanks for the ride. thanks for my rocks. for my husband who holds my hand and sheds a tear for me. for my kids who cuddle me and say it will all be ok. and friends and family who come out of the woodwork and say ok. let's go. i'm here. i love you.
you are my sunshine. my only sunshine. you make me happy when skies are grey.
indeed. you do.

Chris. You made me cry. I have just discovered a beautifully poetic side of you that I never knew was there, and what a topic to discover it by.
ReplyDeleteWe love you. We believe in you. We shall be praying for you as you fight this battle backed by the love of God, your friends and your family.
Much love
