Hello, this is a wonderful read as you took me from your first knowledge that you had cancer to the anger and sorrow and in the end your wonderful attitude - the resolve to fight with faith in God. What a inspirational piece. Thank you for sharing and God bless you...Carrie P.S do wish I had a six star for this work

Comment from Realist101
Dearest Barbara. I will think of you and ask God to help you CONQUER this foe. I am so sorry, I look at your beautiful face, and ask myself, why does this sort of thing happen to GOOD people??? I will PM my phone number if you would like. I wish you all the luck in the world Barbara. This poem and your essay/communication is very well written. If and when I face this dilemma, I won't be able to function. My love to you and your family too...Susan

Thank you for your kindness. I wrote hoping somehow another woman can read it and realize she too has the strength to fight this cancer.
Comment from RebelRose
This is very moving and very informative. Most of it I knew but the part about the estrogen receptor is news to me. I am proud to know that you are a fighter; that you are not just going to lay down and let it take you. You have more strength than even you realize. Having lost a mother, aunt and best friend to this dreaded disease, I can feel your pain to some degree. Also, I have had a 'scare' myself but it turned out alright for now (I am still having mammograms every 6 months). Hang in there, sister. You can do it.

Thank you for sharing this story that awakened compassion in me. I am glad you believe that although your body is experiencing cancer, you will continue to radiate from the inside out.

My blessings, more blessings and more. I don't know what to say after reading your own story, but was under thunderclap for many minutes.
I wish you the very best in your life.
Come back from Hospital and write more for us. We all would be waiting for a very nice person to pick her smiley pen.
God bless you always.

Barbara,
I am so sorry to hear about your illness. You have a good attitude and that will make all the difference in outcome. A good attitude goes a long way. I will keep you in my prayers, especially on that particular day of the surgery. I am sure you will be surrounded by prayers.
Stay strong. This will not beat you. You will not let it.
Blessings,
Sole
