It is amazing how when something bad happens, something good comes with it. Getting a diagnosis of terminal cancer is a bummer, a BIG bummer, but the outpouring of love and concern is overwhelming. All the people who have expressed their love and sent their prayers and good thoughts is so comforting. People I don't know personally have sent their prayers and good thoughts. People of all faiths are praying: Christian (conservative, liberal, mainstream), Muslims, agnostics. It is overwhelming, but in a positive sense. I hope I can get through this journey without losing site of all that's good here. I've taught my kids that we live in a friendly universe, that there's a lot more love than hate. We just have to try to give and receive love and not let hate prevail.
Enough of this cancer crap. I may not live to an old age, but the time I have will be filled with the things and people I love, and who love me. My heart felt thanks to all of you who have touched my life so far!
