Christmas break was nice, until my dear friend went to the hospital with a respiratory infection, just before the New Year. Then we got news about a tragic loss in my husband's family. My friend, HK, was a Stage IV breast cancer thriver. She was there for a week trying to get better so she could start the New Year off right. Just when she thought the doctor was going to let her go home, she was told that there were no more treatment options for her disease and that it was spreading. Oh how my heart broke into pieces. And into many more pieces when she drifted off to be with Jesus less than a week later. My sweet friend, M, surprised me a couple of weeks ago with a sign that is so fitting. She's a rock star and love her heaps. This sign has a place in my heart and my home.
Come on 2016 - be good to me. We need some good news. And.....nope, it hasn't gotten better. Another family has been impacted with a breast cancer diagnosis. I know God has this sweet lady and her family in His hands. We pray for strength, focus and fire to fight a good fight.
Item #766: Remember to say nice things to everyone you encounter, even those that you do not like. Smile. It's free. Get out there and make the world a better place. Please and thank you.
I love your guts!
