As the Chemo Drips...

After beating ovarian cancer once, I've been re-diagnosed. Here I'll share my journey of chemotherapy and surgery including the ups and downs, laughter and tears and everything in between.

Little Angels

As I went to chemo today, I had the spirit of two little girls in my heart and on my mind.  I mentioned Kate, from the Kids Kicking Cancer party on my previous blog.  A true warrior who so wanted to come to the party that she got out of the hospital that day to make it.  And Audrey.  I've asked for your prayers for Audrey, the young grand-daughter of a high school friend who, like me, cancer has returned.  I received a message from her the other day, something no small child should every have to write, think about or even know the drug names!!!  This was her message she wrote..  "Marcia how is chemo?  What are your medicen?  do you have zofran for you tumy?  Have you broke out in hivs? i have.  Do you have a port. I hope you get well"   SERIOUSLY!!!!!!  These are just 2 small little girls who are going thru something NO ONE, let alone a child should have to go thru.  This past week, these beautiful angels have made me such a better person. Cancer forces you to find your strength and fight.  I believe I have found my strength in these two little girls.  God Bless you both..you are in my prayers

    I will continue to keep you in my prayers Marcia and will add these 2 sweet girls. God puts many people on our path in life...many we don't have a clue as to why but many that we see, realize "why" and lift our eyes and say "thank you God".

    Joe and I are heavy supporters of St. Judes Children's Hospital....no child should have to go through this...but it seems they often go through it with such strength, bravery and positiveness. I often ask "why" when I see their suffering....but each has their own path to travel...laid out by Him....He is always there though, they are never alone. Hugs....Melana
