BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR - SOBREVIENTE DE CANCER!!!
I have been married for 27 years with one daughter and two grandchildren.
The past four I have been on a rollercoaster to nowhere, emotional and physically. I have finally landed!!!
These past three years 31/2 have been very difficult for me. I had been diagnosed with Breast Cancer III and had been going through treatments and lots of surgeries. Along the way I have also lost loved ones which made my pain unbearable. What else could happen!!! This was the lowest point in my life. I am so grateful it has come to and end. During this journey, I found out that the people who I thought were my friends were not. Not even card or a call to say, how you are doing. My dad died of lung cancer in ’94 and I remember him saying “you’ll know who your friends are when you get sick”. That stuck in my head for along time. Some people didn’t know how to approach me. Like I had some contagious disease, (imagine that, huh). Even people in my own family didn’t understand what I was going through. I found other people that I rarely dealt with come to my aid. Angels that God put in my life. Amazing huh..yeah!!! I was angry for a while, trying to comprehend what happened to me!!! I said to myself “why me.” But you see with all that anger I turned to the Lord and asked him to not let me fall. Every time I fell down, the Lord was right there to pick me up. I realized that the second chance God gave me would mold my new life. I have deep scars!!! Scars, physically and mentally that will forever be a constant reminder of being a Cancer Survivor…Sobreviente de Cancer!!!! My life will never be the same as the old one. The hardest part for me was learning acceptance. Because once you learn acceptance the rest gets easier. My life may not be the same, but I am rich!!! Rich with having a wonderful husband and daughter who has been with me every step of the way. Rich because I have two beautiful grandchildren who have helped me heal. Their precious time with me has renewed my spirit. My spirit, in mind, body and soul. That unconditional love you get from children without any judgments that is pure and innocent. NEW friends who share my views. I learned to laugh and cry again. Cry not out of sadness but out of happiness. It has been a long time!!!
Everything in life has a purpose. I know whatever God has for me shall be revealed in time. If you know someone that is sick or afflicted or dying,remember to take time and show that person that you care about them and love them as God loves us. My Faith in God is eternal!!! Forever!!!

Dear Father, For the strength you have given me I thank you. For the health you have blessed me with, I thank you.
For the women who are going through breast cancer and their families I ask you to strengthen and to heal as you see fit. Lord we know you want us to be in good health and to prosper. Lord use us to do the work you have for us to do. For we know time is getting short on this earth. Lord be with every woman who is sick and encourage them as only you can. I know how faithful you are. You have shown yourself to be everything you say you are in your Holy Word. I praise you for you made this body and you can heal this body.
In Jesus Name I pray. AMEN
What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited...
It cannot cripple love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship(s)
It cannot suppress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot steal eternal life
It cannot conquer the spirit.

A PRAYER FOR LIFE'S JOURNEY
Gracious God, sometimes I see my life as an unsolvable puzzle. My days move along rapidly, but the people and situations I encounter seem to make no sense. I consider and weigh carefully the decisions I think I should make, but find myself doing something completely opposite of what I thought I had decided. Then a moment of stillness comes, and I realize that all these random strands are actually part of the beautiful tapestry that is the journey of my life, and I am so grateful. Thank you, God, for leading me in paths I might never choose, and for giving the journey of my life a rich texture. Amen.

"Thought is the most powerful form of creation in the world. With one thought, you can experience pain, misery, or absolute terror. Without that thought, you experience wholeness, peace, and define connected. Allow your thoughts to be your best friends, and together we will create heaven on earth."
The light of the morning is beautiful. But the light in our hearts is the Holy Spirit. Jesus cares so much. Our Father sent his only begotten Son to us. Jesus went to sit on the right hand of God the Father, and sent another Comforter, The Holy Spirit, Praise God. He loves us...Mary
Good morning Angel. Jesus really does care, isn't it great?....Matthew 6:32. (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your Heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
