This journey we're on......: January 2013

It has been a few months since you last heard from me. I have been trying to enjoy my new "normal" with out a million doctors appointments, chemo, shots, blood tests and phone calls from my 5 doctors every stinking day. I have been enjoying just being a mom to my sweet Paisley and a wife to the most amazing husband. It has been an incredible year. One of the best years of my life!!! Paisley just celebrated her first birthday. I am just so thankful that I was healthy so we could just enjoy it ....and what a way to start off the new year!!!!!

I am going to make this short. I honestly just wanted to say thank you! I am so thankful for all of you...my friends and family who helped carry me through this last year. You will never know how much I appreciate you all. I was wishing daily I could spend time with each and every one of you. I just wanted to hug you and tell you how much your love meant to me during one of the most difficult times of my life. You know who you are. You sent me care packages, scarves, cards, letters, money, gave words of encouragement, you prayed for me, cried for me, cried with me, cut your hair with me or even shaved it BEFORE ME, brought us dinner, called me, listened to me, came to visit me, helped take care of me (and Paisley), loved me and you believed in me and what God was doing in my life. You helped get me/us through each crazy day. I could never repay you for that. I can only tell you that I will only try to be half the friend to you as you were to me. I will try my hardest to love you and be there for you for your trials, your joys and your everyday happenings. I pray blessings on each and every one of you. May God bless you and pour down His love on you the way He did through you when I needed it most! YOU ARE A BLESSING and a TRUE FRIEND THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!!! Here are just a few of you who acted out your love in a very special way! (I don't have every ones picture)

I received this picture as text message a few days after my hair started falling out. I was beside myself, I couldn't believe that you did this!!! Thank you Kat for the courage to do it myself! I love you!
