    Hi Everyone,

    Hi Everyone,

    Been lurking, not posting lately.  All is well!

    Just wanted to shout out to all the moms a very Happy Blessed Mother's Day!  I know my 3 young, beautiful girls were the focus and the driving strength behind all the *!!#^!! of mel's adventure last year.  And, as I sit here 6mths NED with hand made cards proclaiming the "love you mommy" sentiment,  I feel so lucky and overwhelmed with joy! I am also reminded of my own mom, 70 years old, driving me back and forth to treatments, taking care of my girls so my husband would miss as little work as possible, so selfless…

    Congrats all you moms who are here, whether struggling yourself or supporting your loved ones…YOU ROCK!!!  And thank you for being the best you can be!  Keep fighting the fight!

    Love and Prayers Always,

    Laurie

      Good to hear from you Laurie! I remember your struggles last year. So glad you are NED and enjoying life! Thank goodness for Moms right?? My mom goes to ll my appointments; she is a retired LPN from the facility (major medical center where I receive treatment). The hospital staff /oncology staff are so welcoming of her too, and ask her questions, her opinion, etc. 

      Continue the good work!!
