“Courage is not the absence of fear, but the strength to conquer it”.

Hi everybody,

Thank you all for the emails and text messages ... although I have not responded to everyone, they bring a smile to my face and warm my heart, so I hope you know I appreciate them all.

I have been disconnected from the chemo this morning and felt well enough to attend my daughter’s Year End School Lunch.  I am glad I went – the smile on her face when I walked into the classroom was the best medicine I could have received.  I even had enough strength to go to the mall this afternoon to do a few errands.

I am tired – it’s been a long day.  There have been some side effects, but all in all, I cannot complain.  We will see what the next 12 days will bring, before I am to go in for my second round.  I pray that they are all like this one. 

 

Of the many beautiful messages I received, I wanted to share one from one of my dearest girlfriends:  “Courage is not the absence of fear, but the strength to conquer it”.
