The biggest healing tool is love and Allen hase been home the last few weeks and has gone to every treatment and appointment with me I know how good this has been for my spirit. When you have a happy heart the body is able to repair itself, boosting the immune system. I know that without a healthy heart it’s hard to get enjoyment out of life, it creates an unbalanced and unable lifestyle making it difficult to handle the stresses of everyday life. I am so grateful to have him home with me and to help me thru this time.
On days where I feel I have been zapped of all my energy, with someone you love around there is always enough room to laugh, smile, chat, cook dinners and most of all, get through the burdens of chemo.
I am grateful for the experiences and lessons I have learned within my family.
I am looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with my older brother Chris and his sweet family. He is a cancer survivor and has always been a father figure in my life. He bailed me out of a tough spot when I was in my 20s and I will never forget that. We dont see each other every week or even every month ....but with out a doubt I could call him and he would be there if I needed something, and I would do the same for him....somethings are just unsaid, but we know they are there. I see so much of my Dads spirit in him that it always makes me smile.
I have been very blessed when it comes to family in my life.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and remember to be grateful for all the people in your life who love you.
