 That's about how it went when I was the speaker at the Race For The Cure this passed June. It sure makes you feel good when you know you've "touched" people.

I know I never would have thought that I could have handled having cancer. But when you find out you have it, you rely on your faith in God and your absolute determination to live. It seems to make it okay. A lot of people turn to Jesus after the fact and I'm glad they do. Fortunately I already had a relationship with Him so I think that has a lot to do with my attitude. Plus if anyone in my family has to have cancer, I would prefer it to be me.

Keep me here at least long enough to keep finding new drugs!

Our determination to live is half the battle. At tmes, I wonder IF I really can beat this but then, I smack myself for thinking that way and think of WHEN I beat this again. Once I hit my 5 year mark, George and I are headed to Vegas to celebrate. I'm predicting April 2011 we'll be back there and I really hope I'm right. I really miss Vegas and since we bought the house, we haven't had a chance to get back.

The word "chronic" came up in my last meeting with my Onc. but I'm betting that as long as I don't get completely stressed out again, I should be okay. Most people get stress zits, I get stress cancer - go figure!
