BEAT THIS CANCER

After cancer had spread to my lymph system AND vital organs, the doctors did not offer much hope. A lot has happened in the`past 4 years, BUT I DIDN`T DIE. Rightnow, I`m writing from Kyoto, Japan!

1999, my husband died of cancer. He fought valiantly. It was his third bout, and he fought to stay with me. No, he wasn’t a saint. We had our problems. But I will always admire and remember his fight.
But the system is geared to make money in the “treatment” of cancer…not the cure, not the way to kill it. Not the way through prayer.
We have to fight. We have to fight with the Saint’s help.
On earth, it isn’t a fight for life, it is death, not resurrection, or faith.
We have to fight.
Maybe that is why I am still here.

In honor of my mom who passed away January 3, 2007 from Skin cancer that spread throughout her entire body.
Please pray for those who have this goal and others who God forbid will join in.

I don’t know what else to say no

I’m grateful for fellow 43’er bebe0315, she made prayer for me one of her goals here on 43things. I’m flattered and honored. Think what might happen if she got a team of people praying for me. I believe in the power of prayer.

If I were to say, ’’God, why me?’’ about the bad things, then I should have said, ’’God, why me?’’ about the good things that happened in my life.

I’m so convicted!
I have asked that question so many times in my struggles with cancer. I have never asked “God, why me” about the good things. I plan to change that here on out!

I maxed out this challenge on purpose. In 5 years I want to be able to say I’m still alive and fighting!

I am having a chemobrain day!

What is chemobrain?
The terms “chemobrain” and “chemofog” refer to cognitive changes during and after cancer diagnosis and treatment. Though these terms imply a relation to chemotherapy, it isn’t clear that chemotherapy is responsible. Women with breast cancer who underwent chemotherapy were the first group to bring these symptoms to light, as more started mentioning their symptoms to their doctors. It isn’t clear whether chemotherapy, or other factors such as stress and hormonal fluctuations, cause the changes in memory and thinking. What is clear is that some people with cancer do notice increased difficulties with certain mental tasks during and after cancer treatment.
For more info “google it.”

I’ve had people e-mail me because they were out of cheers. Your support has been overwhelming!

I’m feeling afraid today, I need as many cheers as possible.

I am still fighting!
