Oh, there are times I just want to kick myself in the butt. But then I realize I'd just end up on the floor! <BR/><BR/>Don't beat yourself up. No things are not ok right now, but they will get better down the road. Remember sweet one, cancer is not your friend, but one day she will make you stronger than you ever knew was possible. You are a fighter, a survivor!<BR/><BR/>Just remember there are many of us out here, ready to walk this road with you.Merida Grace https://www.blogger.com/profile/15252344191991897493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985921680032091722.post-28643194902898890032009-03-05T11:33:00.000-06:002009-03-05T11:33:00.000-06:00Hi Sheri,Now don't go getting your panties in ...Hi Sheri,<BR/>Now don't go getting your panties in a bunch! (yes, pun intended). Everything you're feeling and doing are natural. Even normal. First of all, the weight-thingy. You could eat like a horse and still drop weight right now. You're hyper and your body is running at warp speed. Your brain is burning glucose like crazy. Perpetual vibration. You're never at rest. But as your healing moves along (and it will), and you start to feel a little more in control, the weight will come back. The control thing is big. We take for granted being able to control our body. Through nourishment, exercise and even down-time. But when our body controls us, and you throw doctors in the mix, it is beyond maddening. Arg! <BR/>Second, resist the fear of imaginary disease in your body. I know what it's like to be a "medical googler". Self-diagnosing every ache and pain when Steve was recuperating from cancer surgeries, chemo, radiation. Sheesh, what a year-and-a-half that was! <BR/>Steve and I prayed that we would receive ONLY good words from the doctors. And if there were no good words, then keep silent. And darned if that wasn't the way it went until Steve was healed!<BR/>That's our prayer for you going forward. Good words, or no words. <BR/>We also pray for your family who probably feel somewhat helpless right now. To keep them strong and sured up. <BR/>Hoping that this day brings you a blue sky, a special phone call, a prayer answered, a good belly laugh and moments of pure peace. <BR/>Cheryl & Steve CookAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4985921680032091722.post-39962867066310822152009-03-05T08:04:00.000-06:002009-03-05T08:04:00.000-06:00Its amazing how our brains automatically go to the...Its amazing how our brains automatically go to the worst scenario possible.
