Thank you for your post on Jacques’ opinion. I support the president and I would, frankly, like to see health care reform go farther than it has. But I agree that staying away from incendiary topics is important here and I have bitten my tongue (fingers?) every time he posts about health insurance. But it is getting difficult to continue.
Be well.

Thanks so much for your support. I’ve decided to call the ‘C’ and ‘interlude’ since I know I will walk this walk just as many others have. I also know that I will arrive at my destination once this journey’s over. I appreciate your info so much.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I both applaud and admire you for your strength, determination and perseverance in going through this odyssey. Yes… I thank god for watching Oprah that day… funny thing is… I usually turn on the stereo when I come home… I picked up the wrong remote and put the TV on instead.
To be honest, I started a blog on my own before I discovered Blog For a Cure. I found writing about my journey very therapeutic. But I will post additional chapters in the next few days. I’m happy to have discovered the site, it’s very supportive and great to know that we not going through it alone.

Hi, I understand about you wearing the ball cap. When I had cancer the first time I had twin daughters who were juniors in high school, a 30 year old son and my husband. My bald head didn’t bother any of them except for my youngest daughter, Cheryl. She asked me to please wear something on my head because it bothered her. She wouldn’t even talk about the cancer for a month or so. I didn’t like the wig at all and very seldom wore it but I did try to wear the knit turbans when she was home or with me. I hated to make it any harder for her. She was so scared. You never know what your children are thinking. She finally broke down one night and cried and cried and asked me “Mom, what did I do to cause this?” I hugged her and told her that she did NOTHING AT ALL to cause this…..that it was just a part of life that happened and it wasn’t anyone’s fault. I don’t know where she got this idea from that it was her fault. She seemed better after that. You will do things for your children and grandchildren that you won’t do for anyone else.
Take care, my friend.
Hugs and blessings,
Joyce In NC

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my last post. I feel so much better having “spilled my guts,” and knew that everyone on here would understand and be supportive. I am so lucky to have all my friends here at the blog. My husband and I were blown away by Mac’s great sermon—he said many things that lifted my spirits and gave me much hope. How I wish everyone here could have attended.

I hope you are doing well. Take care.

Martha
