5 Years and counting....


Wednesday, February 3rd will be the 5 year anniversary of the day that I was diagnosed with cancer.

On that day I felt:

Frightened
Angry
Defeated
Exhausted
Shocked
Sorrowful
Depressed
Fearful
and
MORTAL


Now, 5 years later I feel:

Hopeful
Full of Love
Fortunate
Powerful
Relief
Lucky
and
STRONG

Even though there are still days where I feel the feelings at the top, I realize that they are few and far between. The feelings that are on the bottom are what I feel everyday of my life.

I have a new found respect for life and for who ultimately gave it to us, our Heavenly Father.
I also have much love and devotion to the person who gave his life for us.
Our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Without them I would not be here.

I am eternally grateful to all of my family and friend for all that they have done for me in the hardest 5 years of my life.

I love you ALL with all of my heart.

You know its amazing how I came across your blog on a day like this, reminding me that I have so much to be thankful for because people like you make life so beautiful and worthwhile when they teach us all the things we forget to appreciate. You seem like a very strong and wonderful woman, and the world is beautiful just because you are in it. Lots of love from Florida. Hope you feel better.
