Surviving - Kapow!!!




So I go to the doctor on May day - having a few gastrointestinal issues a few weeks before my Colonoscopy. She says "let's do a Cat Scan". Could it be my gall bladder, irritable bowel syndrome, stress - hmmm. I win the prize - a large mass on my left kidney that is more than likely malignant. WHAT???? Well, it was, it's out and it rocked my world. I have a sense of humor, a strong faith in God, very supportive friends and family, I recovered rapidly. But I just never dreamed I would have Cancer. I have lost friends to Cancer, have friends dealing with Cancer. Know there are millions of women with Cancer. Now I know how brave you all are. I'm so proud of you. I applaud you for your faith and courage and tenacity! Although I can never feel what you feel - my heart and prayers are with you. Love, Jennifer

Designer Plus! Check her out!



I design my own cards and sell them. I appreciate the time involved and the creativity. So I plan to list talented artists on Etsy and other sites to let them know #1 - I think they are special #2 - Let others know I think they are special.
Special Feature:www. Pacokeco @ Etsy.com.
So pass on some good news today...
We never know when we will miss the moment to say "I love you" or "You are special" or "You made my day" or "You gave me hope" - it's so easy. I've lost several dear friends to cancer in the last few years and I've learned 2 things - how fast Life can end and how unimportant things can be. I never want to wish I had told them " I love you". I am dealing with the "C" word right now and my husband, sons, family and friends are here - filling my heart with love. God is filling my soul with peace.
P.S. You are special!
