My mood is better, kind of purple and am trying to stay on the positive side.  Talked to my pastor yesterday and he was so supportive and let me cry and he answered some questions I had.  Walked 25 minutes at the gym and although I was going very, very slow, it felt good to stretch the ol body.  Am going to be more positive and try not to feel sorry for myself all the time, as I think I can be a downer to those around me.  Every day is a real blessing from God and I have to accept that I can use this cancer to help others that are struggling with this disease or other problems.

    What a super attitude.. It is difficult not to feel sorry for our selves when we spend lots of time on our own and l also find that being involved with others is the best way forward.. Everyone, without exception, has difficult issues to deal with and considering and helping others is a great way to help ourselves. Loads of luck to you xxx

    Oh Sally, it's good to hear you sounding more positive. What a burden this is to all of us...and you shouldn't be too concerned about bringing other people down! Considering how quickly you are bouncing back is a very good sign.
    I have my own "moments" where I feel so alone with this disease. Going to chemotherapy alone isn't always so easy, but with Mac not having a driver's license right now...not much choice in the matter. He feels like he's let me down...and perhaps, in a way he has...but I don't want to make him feel any guiltier than he already does.

    Do you know anything about the Green Valley area of Tuscon? We are now thinking of moving to Tuscon since it's so much closer to the kids. Heck, it's only 611 miles to Denver!
    It's already getting too cold for my comfort level and it's just the end of September.
    Hope this finds you still feeling purple! I love that depiction...and I love that I hear some "hope" in your "voice". Take care, hugs lindamae

    Sally its perfectly ok to feel sorry for yourself and cry , do it and then shrug it off and keep on trucking. I do it all the time. Remember that song, they knock me down, but I get up and they wont get me down again. or something like that LOL, not a good singer, teehee. Hang in there hon, God has you were you he wants you and for a reason. Luv ya. :)
