I have been hearing the nasty word cancer a lot lately. I hate cancer. I hate everything it represents and everything it has done to my friends and family. Ironically my zodiac is Cancer.
One person has finished treatment and is recovering well. She finished her treatment just before covid hit. Another is still in treatment but all is looking good and the doctors are very optimistic. Her mom is a friend of mine that I’ve known for many years. We met when she worked with my mom’s good friend and then I worked with her much later. Those were my “Tropical Inn” days haha. The third is about to start treatment and again the doctors seem optimistic. The fourth… Husband to one of my good friends. He had treatment, finished during covid, had complications, had his meds changed, they found another lump, got tested, etc etc. He was taken to Saskatoon today. The cancer has spread to his brain. This man has spent years looking after others and now he is in a situation that is just not looking very promising at all.
I texted her Sunday morning to see how she was doing. I had no idea that her husband had been sent back to the hospital 2 days prior. She was living in a whirlwind of doctors and questions and uncertainty. I cried that had been hurting so much with no time to take care of her own thoughts and feelings and to reach out. Her mom had her little girl.
It’s just not looking good. She has a hard time getting around, she has Fibromyalgia. Her teen son is full of anger and hatred of the world and life and all beings in it. Her little girl is an angel on Earth with a soul like no other. Her smile lights up the darkest corners of any room.
I’m asking for your help. Please pray for his family, keep them safe, protect them as they stay by his side in these times of uncertainty, shower them all in healing light and more love than they have ever known.
Stay well friends,
-Ang

Thank you so much Dwain! I believe there is a cure for everything wrong in the world today and I know it will be found one day. I just wish there didn’t have to be so much pain and suffering before that happened

I agree with you Angie. When I really get upset is seeing the commercials for the Shriner’s Hospital & St. Jude’s with children suffering with the dreaded cancer. They are so young and have to grow up so fast.

Heartbreaking. And yet most seem to have such a beautiful outlook on life, one that most adults struggle to find in their lifetimes.
