Burr, Winter Happens
Fickle person I am. I love the change of a season, especially the change from a sweltering Sacramento Summer into a cool breezy Fall day. I love the Fall season. It is my absolute favorite of all seasons. I love to watch the leaves turn from green to yellow, orange, red and so on. Here is some trivial information, Sacramento is known as the City of Trees. We have so many trees. It does make for a more attractive city.
Change is happening again right now. Winter is beginning to set in. I love the first several rains. Washing away all the crud... polluted air and such. The nights are pretty cold right now, at least in Sacramento terms. We have had freezing nights, and wet days. I am now over winter and ready for spring to set in.
I am slowly picking myself back up, slowly learning how to take care of my own needs before taking care of others. I learned the hard way that I am no good to anyone if I am still sick myself. This "sickness" goes for not only physical but emotional as well.
I am pleased to announce that I am on the mend. I do not have the patience or time at the moment to write where I have been or what I have been doing in my absence. To much to write in one post.
To all those who have been encouraging, patient and so supportive of me, friends and family, Thank you so, so, much. You never gave up on me, I will not give up on you. I will fight this fight. I may have cancer, but I will not let cancer have me!
Love,
Lori

Post a CommentHi Lori,
I'll be coming for a visit this weekend and am looking forward to good quality Lori time. Glad to hear you are taking care of number one.
Love you soooo much,
Sister-Kizzy-lou
Doesn't matter where you've been or what you've been doing. As long as you're taking care of yourself and you're improving. There are many people here who care about you. Many people who you don't even know about. I hope you're doing well.
I love you sweetie...I'm so happy to see you writing again :D

Only just started delving (love that word) into your web of blogs. Hope you don't spend too much time fighting cancer - I've found it's more effective to treat it with disdain and scorn. Looking forward to mission remission as even though I'm 3 years after my dead before date, I just been told (in front of the TV cameras would you believe) that I'm in remission.
Happy days

Real Cancer Real Lives Carnival #9.
Carnival # 9.
Yes folks...roll up, roll up to the Ninth Carnival of Image hosted by Photobucket.com. Started by Cary Miller at Cancer NewsWatch, this carnival aims to debunk the popular media cliches of cancer by showcasing real excerpts from patients, caregivers and any other cancer connected blogs.
As cancer patients, we are aware of our own mortality, and with that comes a heightened awareness of the world changing around us. Lori, in a poetic post, looks at the seasons changing around her and compares it with her own renewal. Read it here.
LOri:
Just read all your blogs. and i'm pulling for you. this is Aunt Joann. And remember i love you very much and am praying for you and Cary. Hang in there.
