So…this
blog post is about you all.
I
just now received an email from a friend, who was a work colleague until he
retired (and is still missed and irreplaceable) in which he stated simply to
me:
“I’m
following your blog. You are
awesome. You will prevail.”
So
kind. So many people have helped in so
many ways. Delicious food prepared with
love. Garden abundance shared. Supportive cards. Encouraging
words. Beautiful flowers. Silly jokes.
Visits. Walks. Even offers of stem cells and/or bone
marrow.
Mutual
admiration society it is, without the exaggeration or pretense!
(mutual admiration society (plural mutual
admiration societies) (idiomatic) A group of two or more people, in a
workplace or other social environment, who routinely express considerable
esteem and support for one another, sometimes to the point of exaggeration or
pretense.)
You
have all been so supportive and positive.
And I just want to thank you. When it was obvious that something more was seriously wrong, and my diagnosis was cancer and chemo, I was terrified. I so appreciate going through this with you. I appreciate that you're even interested in reading this blog. It initially felt a bit narcissistic, but I do believe it is the
easiest way to update a central portal. So...thanks for reading. Thanks for being there.
"God's dream is that you
and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made for
togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion." ~Desmond Tutu
