I have spent the past months working to make a dream a reality... i had only... from the beginning of this dream... set my heart in the place of giving... of sharing... of loving... for the sake of a call... and hoping to find a great love in return... i have seen this dream become a reality... and it was grace that made that dream a reality... the graceful love of a few... that trusted my ability... that knew my heart... that put faith in me... to fulfill a dream... my heart is more blessed by these others than even my own desires have imagined... a dream that started with a conversation with my husband and a passion for others... and by a genuine faith in me... to what became a common goal... i have so many to thank for the blessings upon my life... as this season begins to take hold of our lives... the business of shopping... of search for the perfect gift... of choosing colorful papers... baking and cooking... of traveling from home... to celebrations with family and friends... there is one theme and message I wish to share with you... a message from the heart of my friend... whom I was blessed to introduce to a sanctuary filled with friends and strangers... words of love... "come on in... no need to knock upon my door... come on in... i know what you came here for... come on in... all I have is your to give you... and though you know I stand unqualified... come on in"... may your vision be filled with a candle burning in a window... drawing you closer... to trust the spirit of the season... to find rest in the arms of the one who came to give you life... on this silent night... may the peace that passes all our understanding... keep your hearts and minds... and may you find the true spirit of the season of Christmas... Merry Christmas to you, boy and girls... Brothers and sisters...

So it goes…

As I reflect on the past weeks I am taken by the fact that my hopes and dreams… while still big and positive… have again been placed into a reality that is… adjusted. This business of cancer is a difficult one. Once you think you have seen it all, you see a different view of life… once again. Let me begin by saying that I have been fortunate from the start for the care given by Rocky Mountain Cancer Center, those who work within the walls, those whose care is from behind a desk, and those who are never directly involved in my care but are there nonetheless, leaves you with NO doubt of the care given.  I began my new medication on January 1st. This was used as a land mark day for reference and it just made sense as I seem to have difficulty with the order of my days. My new reality requires that I take a hormone blocker daily knowing that it will require a 5 possibly 10 year commitment.  Edit in… the results of my bone density scan provided additional details, some that I was n...

The memory is a funny being... i see so clearly yesterday... those are the stories we share... our pictures are perfect....full of color... scenes filled with love... life... experience... tasted... treasured... it is part of a bigger picture... i see a life before... when time often stood still just based on a mood... the end of a day... the depth of a moment... captured in time...yet brought to life... through the heart of another... one created in unconditional love... that which brought a light into a world that began dark... story less... distant... misunderstood... yet... as time passed and days of darkness became filled with memories of another day... one who was before a time... who gave an all for the sake of a cause... which unbeknownst to you... your time had not come... yet in the sunrise again on another day... which the heart of this one gave life to another... i for one never felt that truth until I dared to dream... of a small love that would fill a place that was never...

Well this is the end of the first day of possibly many or even a few... i have tried to remain positive, consistent, hard, just... and right this moment I do not know how I feel... what I should feel... this is truly a place where I knew I was and yet decided to deny... the disease infests, inhabits,  enables the distrust to enter behind a steady fast faith... no matter how distant the goal seems to be... the nearer desire... to want to be relived of a heaviness that can only be explained by the action of others... who have been placed in an environment of trust... misfortune... resort... lack of choice... so to end this day in a place of even more uncertainty... no different from the recent past... i wonder outloud... is this really what you had in mind for me... again...
