I need your help
My mother is going through a very difficult time right now. She's doesn't get on the computer very often, so I thought I'd post this for her. On Thursday, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is a single mother and my youngest brother and sister still live at home so the surgery and chemo will be very hard on her. My husband and I are going to help out as much as possible, but if you guys could leave her some really encouraging comments that will brighten her day when she signs back in, it would mean a lot to all of us. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you.

Angie, I just hated reading this. We all must remember..including Debbie, there are many, MANY who survive breast cancer. I know with all her family and friends and now friends worldwide thanks to 4WT, that Debbie will have all the prayers and support to get her through this. We love you Debbie!

Angie, this must be very hard for you and your family, and especially your mom, of course. So very sad to hear this news. You all must maintain a positive outlook. As already stated, lots of women beat this disease. There is much cause for hope and encouragement.
You are in my prayers. Call on us anytime for whatever we can offer.

I'm sorry to hear about your Mom! She will definitely be in my prayers. Let us know if there's something specific that we need to be praying for.

How is Debbie doing Angie? I'm sending her positive thoughts to keep her mind from thinking bad things. I've been saying a prayer for her daily.
I know this sounds weird, but I keep a piece of paper on my bathroom mirror with everyone I need to say prayers for. That way, I won't forget if I get busy with things. It works great for me...and now Debbi is on my list.

She has another appointment on Thursday with the surgeon and we'll know a lot more then. Her last appointment was very encouraging. I will let mom share that news with you when she gets back on. Thank you for your concern and for checking up on things. I've actually heard of making a list like that and putting on your mirror. I've never done it, but I know people who have and they've always said it works really well for them. We definitely appreciate your thoughts and prayers right now.

Thank you Yorkiekids. My mom is Forgivenmom5. She signs on occasionally so maybe you'll get a chance to chat with her soon.
