Hello all my lovely friends and followers in blogland. As you may have noticed, I have not posted since Weds., which is very rare for me. I wound up taking a wee self-imposed "mental health" break. I will be catching up on some posting over the rest of the week, but just at this time, wanted to ask for your prayers, and LOTS of them.
First, my 9 year old son and I got to visit CB today - we were hoping to go late last week, but I came down with an illness, which is a sinus infection, but at the time I was not sure if it was a cold, flu or what was going on. CB is looking good and feeling decent even with having to do chemo once a week, but he definitely has a long fight on his hands - he will do chemo for 3 years - so I would LOVE if you could keep your prayers coming for him and his family!
The next thing, I found out about on Fri. and it has pretty much wiped me out mentally. I don't know if you remember, but back in Dec., a dear friend of mine found out she had a rare form of women's cancer. She had surgery and when they went in to do a follow up, they did not find clear margins, which means there was still cancer, but they thought they could monitor it and treat it with drugs and not have to do chemo or other treatments. Unfortunately, she started having some other issues last weekend and had to go back into the hospital. They found metastasizing cancer in her lungs that has spread to her brain and bone. This came as a complete shock and the prognosis is not so good. This person is about 20 years older than me and is a great friend, confidant and mentor - someone who has gotten me through a lot of tough times over the past 6 years. She started chemo on Fri. and I am praying for a miracle for her, I hope you will include her in your prayers as well.
Thanks so much and sorry for the somber tone of this post, but I just needed to share this information with you. THANKS for listening. Hugs!

Sorry to read your sad news - I am thinking of you
Hey Aud, so sorry to read your sad news hunni. You should not apologise for sharing sweetie, after all a trouble shared is a trouble halved! It is hard to see friends and family go through cancer treatments and sometimes just as hard for your friends to watch you go through it mentally with them.
My thoughts and prayers are with you as well as those receiving treatment. Take care of yourself through all this Aud.
Big hugs

You and your friend will both be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time Audrey. I know how devasting such news can be having just lost a close friend to a very short battle with cancer late last year.
It´s really true, what a saying we have here says, that one accident necver stands alone, isn´t it? I feel really sorry for you Audrey and I really hope and pray, that a miracle will happen to your friend, and I will keep both of you and your families in my thoughts and prayers, that´s for sure, and you don´t need to appoligize for these things hun, I really think we all would go down mentally, with sooo much bad news in such a short time. I know, what it´s like, as I too have lost not just one but 3 close friends to this dreadful disease the last 5 years and just got the news, that another one have got it too now, so I know exactly how you feel right now hun.
Stay strong and please take good care hun.
I am so sorry to hear of the illnesses of your friends. I will pray for them and I sincerely hope a miracle will save them.
Hugs to you too for your strength and friendship to the ones you love and care for.

Awe, Audrey, so sorry to hear all of this. I lost a friend very suddenly last summer to a neuro-muscular disease. We thought she was improving, then one night it moved into her heart and took her away from us. I have been so lost ever since, I used to talk to her on the phone almost everyday. So, I so know what you must be feeling. Prayers are with you!!!!!!!!!!
Hugs, Lisa
