...I would find a way to express my love for my children and grandchildren, my husband and my brothers and sisters. There aren't enough words to express the fact that they have done everything from make me laugh to save my life. There is no other way to put it. Then there are my awesome friends and extended family, many of whom are as close as siblings to me. There is enough love to go around and the same comments can be said of you all...you have made me laugh...you have saved my life. Could anyone be more blessed? I think not.
Since the beginning of this year, several of my loved was have been or are just now beginning to fight the demon of cancer in their lives. This has given me a slap in the face 'heads up' to how precious each moment is. My dreams tonight woke me from slumber with the thought...fight, eat, pray, rest...then rise to start again.
I would do anything people I love ask of me; if it wears me to the bone, I will do it. It isn't my intention to be self-sacrificing or noble. I just want people to be happy and if something is within my power, no matter the cost, I will attempt it. My deepest sadness is that I cannot fight this battle for them. I can, however, fight it with them. And so we fight. Nam Myoho Renge Kyo
