It is so great to see you here again, and like jay said...failing only comes once you stop trying. Fight the big "G" disease with the same tenacity and determination that you are battling the big "C". I have so much admiration for you with all that has challenged you.....
You've already fought through one of the biggest battles/decision any woman could endure. So, now is time to fight even harder, from the very core of your being! Don't allow this insidious gambling disease to take from you, all that you have fought for to preserve....your life!
Be well, sweet Cathy...I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Much love,
Tagg
Keep going back.
I'm thinking positive thoughts for you.
