I couldn't pass up the title of this so I read it. It touched me very deeply and I want to wish you the very best. I will pray for you so know that people care and God loves you and will watch over you. Great poem from your heart. Cody

Hi there barbara

Add to your list, New Zealand

Fan Story has blessed me with friends on five continents, Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South Americas. How could I not find strength with that many friends pulling for me?

I too will be pulling for you.

I have just spent a day with a friend who has gone through what you have, at age 29 and has now at 39 had a set-back, but she fights on, brave as brave, like you are and will be doing.

I wish you all the best, and the successful treatment I know you'll receive.

Marion.

I'm very touched by your true story, and poem as well. I had to smile at thes lines, showing how human you are " am a girly girl. I love pink, romances..." My granddaughter is exactly like that, expecting twin boys!

Hubert Humphrey shared wonderfully powerful words. Friendship and love can make everything feel better - to an extent anyway.

My friend, I have been praying for you, your family and all those on your medical team. Thursday is a big day - a day to begin healing... I will be thinking about you and will continue to pray. There is a lot of love being shared by your friends here on fanstory. I hope it helps you to feel well, feel positive and well... feel loved.

Big hugs to you. You are a dear friend and I wish for you all the Lord has to offer.

XXXOOO Love, Nic

I have endured cervical cancer and after two sugeries, it is in submission. However, I will never be able to have children. This was caused by my father, so in a way, I'm glad I can not carry on his seed. I feel for you and your situation. I will send prayers your way. I've found that my prayers usually work if I'm praying for others. If I pray for myself, I'm asking for trouble...

Take care, dear and please rest easy in your recovery.

Sincerely,

Susan

Glad to meet you, Barbara. This is my first time to read anything written by you. I have been a FanStorian for years, but have taken a break for several years. Life called, I answered, now I'm back Now that's out of the way, I just want to wish you well on your surgery this Thursday. I am praying for them to get it all. Praying for your team of doctors and for you and your family. I am a fellow Texan and you can count on me to check back with you.

God bless,
Foxey

    Thank you for your kindness. Hey, fellow Texan, can anything be done about the heat. It's the middle of September> (LOL)
reply by Senyai on 14-Sep-2010
    I know, the humidity is awful. I can remember taking the kids down the streets Halloween eve and it was too hot for them to be comfortable in their little costumes. Texas has two seasons... hot and cold. :-)

    Take care,

My grand-mother and cousin both had breast cancer, they're both still here too. Never let anyone, or anything, discourage you. I hope everything goes smoothly and that your recovery is quick!

I admire your courage and faith, and that you don't let the bad experiences diminish that faith, but help it to grow. I've heard the book by Susan Summers, who conquered cancer, is extremely good to read if you are a cancer patient. Just a suggestion.
My thoughts and prayers will remain with you.

    Thank you for your kindness. I will get that book. I had heard about it a while back and forgot all about it.
