Quiet Time!

Cancer is a time of emotions. Good, bad and indifferent! Before my first treatment I was bold and selfish. I learned patience and selflessness. It was the quiet time. A time to think and settle all the questions going through your head. When someone is battling a life threatening disease people change. Your family, friends and yourself. You learn to respect life and even the littlest thing can make a big difference. I am not a religious person. I don't like rules stating my belief. But I do believe in God and the power of prayer. It's a quiet thing absorbed through every part of your body during quiet time. It has been a year since my last treatment. I have survived because of change. I have survived because of my family. I have survived because of faith, hope and love. I have survived because of quiet time.

    Take time and listen to your body. Listen to your heart but most of all listen to God and he will guide you through the rest of the way. Your almost to the end of your tunnel of terror. We all will be there waiting for you to come out then the fun begins going back to a normal life. Happy Holidays. Kelly
