Dear Kim,
On the light side...thats exactly what I mean there are individuals like
Ron and John and Diana that can diplimatically say the same things I do
and try to provide you with hope and caring, but I come over to harsh,
but their words come from moments of experience and from the deepest
part of their heart, not so differently than mine, but theirs are more
angelic and mine are more human..which is a deficiency for me for sure.
There messages to you are the most sincere and reassuring any survivor
can provide to any caregiver and survivor who wish to seek out the
truths behind cancer and that is it should not be equated to lifes
threat, but to a change in lifestyle that heals emotionally and
physcally.
Take care Kim and know that we all support you with and however how we
provide our words..as it all comes from our heart.
God Bless You
marty and Barb
