Please Keep Robert In Your Thoughts

[Forgivenmom5]

Sheryl we have really missed you!! I don't know if you know but I just finished cancer treatment in July. I had chemo first then surgery in April and then radiation. It is a long struggle and not and easy one but with love and support and faith it is possible. There are lots of ways to control side effects now. If you ever need to talk to someone who knows what you are going through just let me know. If you need to talk by phone I can give you the number also. Love and hugs.

Debbie...you are such a wonderful person. You make me want to strive to be as best I can.

Thank you! Actually yes, I did know that you finished your last treatment. I read Angie's post in her "positive thread" yesterday. My eyes teard up while I read that.

I probably do need to PM you soon. I've been reading sites about his cancer, treatments, all of what I can find. My head is not in a good place right now. I've got to find that seed of faith that gives me better thoughts, the strength, the empowerment to be there for Robert and support/care for him while we take this "cancer walk" together. This song remains in my head and it helps soooo much.

I realize the long struggles ahead - so much fear! I have not stopped shaking inside since his diagnosis was given in July. Both our heads are spinning with thoughts running off course.

I hope you are feeling well and strong.

Sheryl the song is beautiful. I know you have the strength to do what you need to do. It will come. I'm so happy Debbie has offered to help. Even though it 's been long distance...we've traveled the road to recovery with her and prayed very hard that she would be a survivor. I admire her strength so much..such a strong woman.

If you need me to research or help in any way...please let me know. It's so good to have you back for however long you can stay.

Sheryl I am so sorry to hear this about Robert. I will keep you both in my prayers and always remember that God is with you in this terrible time.. Trust in the lord and he will bring light into this darken tunnel.. Debbie has gone through a lot she is a source of inspiration like Janet mentioned.


Sheryl our prayers are with you always.. Be strong....

Sheryl, there is one thing to keep in my when you are researching. Some of the sites can overwhelm you with statistics and make you feel there is no hope. That is one reason I waited so long to seek treatment. Just take one day at a time and remember each day is a little closer to feeling better and being healthy again. One thought that I believe God gave me to help me through is that HE DOES NOT DEAL WITH STATISTICS--HE DEALS IN MIRACLES.

These ladies and my children and co-workers gave me so much strength. Seek that strength wherever you can find it. I had not heard that song before but it is amazing. We are all here for you.

Sheryl, it's so good to have you back on here. I'm so sorry to hear about Robert's health but I'm glad that you've turned to us so that we can be praying for both of you. I know that Debbie's name has already been brought up a few times but she has been such an inspiration to all of us on here with everything that she's gone through. Keep us posted about what's going on and I'll have my church praying for Robert as well. Tell Robert that I said hello and that I'll be praying.

Thank you ladies very much.

I never know what our future holds nor it's outcome. What matters now is today with hopes for tomorrow. It's new to Robert and I to deal with "one day at a time". We've been practicing I guess you can say.

Thank you again.

P.S. I did not mean to duplicate my other thread. I need somebody w/ super powers to delete it.

Thank you. Special thoughts to each of you.
