I know honey, but you can't.

Love you,

Debbie,

That Looking Good thing sounds great! You'll also meet other people in the same situation and that's always helpful.

I agree. I think that you should go for it too! I think that now it's really important to look your best because then you'll feel better. Plus you'll have the support of other women who are doing the program too.

I really want her to go as well, but i understand why she is weary about going. She is trying to work as much as she can through this and her co-workers and bosses are being wonderful about it. This only happens on Mondays during her work time, but I think if they knew why she wanted to leave they would encourage her to go as well. They all love mom too. It wouldn't take very long mom and you know they want you to be as happy and comfortable as possible right now. I love you and hope you reconsider going.

I probably will go but not this Monday. I am just too sick right now. The only time I have been out of bed is what little time I have been able to work. There is another one in Nov. so maybe I can go then. Aren't both of my girl's great. Traci even came to my chemo on her birthday and she does as much as she can with all she has going on. Angie and Brendon are always there for me doing everything they can. I am still pretty sick so when I can't get on the girls will keep you up to date.

Dear Debbie,

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. Chemo can really knock you out!

My prayers are with you,

[Gina]

Debbie I hope you will feel better soon, take care of yourself and rest...

[Janet]

I'm still holding you in my prayers Debbie. Stay strong in spirit and we'll get through this together....right ladies....we love ya girl!

My prayers are with you all!!!! Angie, you are one person and you have a lot of responsibilities tugging at your heart and your time. You need to do all that you can for your mom, but realize that you have to take care of yourself and your hubby, too. Traci, you also have a busy life and you can both only do so much. Everyone knows what a loving family you all are.

If you need outside help, please ask. Your friends and neighbors probably want to help, and may not know what you need or how to ask. This is a time when you need not be shy. Regardless of what you see on TV or in the paper, this is a very giving society. When the need is known people will be there for you.

Debbi, I don't know what to say to comfort you. Please take care of yourself and know you have a strong network around you and on here who care and want to do all they can to help you.

[AngieDoogles]

Thanks everyone! Marilyn, we are doing all we can for Mom. Luckily, it's not so hard because we try to go to the store for Mom at the same time we get our own groceries and stuff like that so that it's not as hard to find time to do everything. Brendon and I are the only ones who can help with errands because Traci lives further away and has four children to care for. I will try to keep your advice in mind though.

Hi Debbie,

Hope today is a good day!

[AngieDoogles]

Thanks Judy. I think Mom is feeling at least a little better today. She's at work right now...

[Mandy]

Angie, please do let your mom know that our thoughts are with her.

[AngieDoogles]

Just wanted to let you know that she really is feeling much better today. It was amazing how much better she looked than she did just yesterday!!
