My best friend of over 15 years whom my children and I spent almost everyday with (with her 2 children as well) died just over a year ago at 29 of breast cancer. I also have many more people in my life who have been afflicted with this disease. I hope that your friend Susan is able to continue to use hospice to regroup in a positive and strong way and I hope that the journey is not to difficult. Cancer is a horrible thing.

Thank you for the cross-link and I will keep your friend in my prayrs. Julie, Susan is just amazing. Simply amazing. She'll never be able to fully comprehend how many lives she changes with her daily examples of living with grace. Channnon, I am so sorry about your friend and physician.

I totally agree. Susan inspires me, too. More than once I have read a blog post of hers, while I was having a rough day with my kids and complaining about it, and I've thought, "What on earth is my problem?" Here is a momma who is in pain, who is fighting for her life, and she has nothing but smiles for her kids and a positive outlook and is so full of hope. It has challenged me to turn my day around, to hug my kids for a long time and to remember the sweetness of life. It's there, every day, sometimes you just have to remember to look for it. So I'm going to look for it today. Susan is surrounded by love. She is home. She is with her family. I hope she is comfortable and warm. I know she will be so touched to see the messages that we are all sending her. I've never met her, but I know that about her. And while she rests and regroups and soaks up all the love around her, we will carry her message on, as you have done so well today, my friend. Well said. I totally agree. Susan inspires me, too.

Your timing is interesting... I am still wrapping my head around the fact that my friend, my physician, is suddenly battling breast cancer as well. Stage 4, with two young children, a fab husband, etc. I will so gladly take a moment from my already chaotic work day and blog and link, for you, for Susan (whom I don't know at all, but I still feel robbed), and for my friends and the others...
