Long time...

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I haven't felt like sharing the bad news in my life. Angel has decided that she doesn't want to live with our family, and I've been heart broken. This actually has hurt me more than the cancer diagnosis. What also hurts is that I know that 17-year-olds make bad decisions, and I worry how this will affect her in her future. She is dearly missed, and at least I get to see that she is okay since she is at the Baptist Children's Home and at Westmoore.

Health wise, I have some sore spots on my body that have me concerned, so my doctor has ordered a blood test done last week, and a PET scan that will be done tomorrow. I absolutely HATE this disease. Every ache and pain can be cancer, and needs to be checked out. There is also a worry about my liver function due to a little yellow in my skin (jaundice).

I am getting into the 3 Day fundraising, and will fully implement training tomorrow. I have sent out e-mails and letters to family and friends and am well on my way with my fundraising goal.

It is time for the cure to be found. Too many women are dying, and many of these are young and have children. Did I mention I HATE this disease?

I hate it too! But I sure can't complain about the way you are handling it.
Love,
Pat
Good luck with the training!

Amy - I sent you an email. I'm sorry things are not going well right now. I hope they have improved since your last post.
