Ladies and Gentlemen, JustSharon40 said:wishing you the best
Hi Sunrae,
I am hoping each day brings you better news. My motto has always been, "one day at a time." I know things will start looking up soon! Stay strong and know we are all praying for you!
Ladies and Gentlemen, Just wanted to let you know that I'm still alive and kicking, just not too high. I know I'm feeling better since I'm starting to get hungry and its been about a week since I've had that feeling. All the meds inc. prednisone are messing me up but I should be able to quit those in a few days. Coughing is a little better and so is my breathing.
I have to admit I've never been a person to take one day at a time and this is a new experience for me. My mind is always so far ahead of my body so I'm trying to rest, relax and go with the flow. This heart problem could turn out to be a blessing. After I get thru the masectomy and rads, hope to have the heart blockage taken care of. It may be that a lot of my health problems will go away, I plan on exercising, eating healthier and enjoying gardening this summer, playing with the grandkids, getting together with family and friends, and be here for all of you. My new masectomy date is April 15th, and I'm looking forward to it.
Your posts mean so much to me. They brought me to tears because I know they come from your heart and its so touching that so many of you care enough to take the time to encourage me and others here on this amazing site. I think it is true that when one of us suffers, we all suffer together. I so glad I found all of you, and each one of you are a true blessing and are enriching my life in ways you may not realize. We're bonded together and its such a treasure to hold close to our hearts. You mean so much to me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love, support, encouragement, strength, inspiration, prayers and best wishes.0 -

I went from an all time low to a major sigh of relief. I hadn't been keeping up with new posts as much as usual and am trying to dwindle down a bit. I feel like I want to read all the new posts and usually try to reply to most of them, but it's just getting a bit overwhelming and that isn't supposed to be what this is about. I am still going through treatment, working full time, a single mom and have a lot on my plate, BUT I honestly and truly with all my heart care about and feel a connection with all my pink sisters. When I read about yet another thorn in your side, I started to cry. Like how much more can you take? Thank God, I read that you have once again ripped through the obstacle! What a sigh of relief for me and I'm very sure for you. I haven't gone through much trauma through my journey thus far, but rest assured that when/if I do, I'll be right here venting because I feel very fortunate that we are all here for one purpose and that is to support one another and make sure that our hands are extended whenever we feel like we're sinking and I'll be darned if it doesn't work! The love, care & concern that spills out onto this board amazes day after day.
Sunrae, keep up that fight and don't let go of the hands that are reaching out to you.
Love, Mar0 -
Soooo Sorry
I thought I was having a rough go of it until I started reading your posts about your problems.
Wishing you only the best from here on.

Sunrae
So sorry to read about the complications you're encountering. But please don't ever feel you're overloading anyone when you talk about your pain and disappointments. I do it all the time, especially to my poor husband.. But we all need to get our feelings out in the open. The sun is going to shine again for you real soon. Will keep on praying for you daily.0 -
Oh Dear Sunrae...as I read
Oh Dear Sunrae...as I read your post the tears started rolling down my face and started praying to God to please hold your hand, watch over you, keep your heart upbeat, keep your cancer at bay till your mastectomy and clear your lungs so you may have some peace. You poor girl, as if battling this beast isn't enough, you are a prime example of when it rains it pours. My thoughts, when you get through your mastectomy and have your kind heart repaired you will be all brand new
Please know that you are in my prayers EVERYDAY, and keep your wonderful spirits up, you are such a beautiful woman!!
Big Hugs and Mountains of Love,

Quick update. The sun is shining today, my bronchitis coughing is easing up and the dr. is bringing me down off some of the prednisone so I should be able to sleep better. My heart cath incisions are healing up good and not so sore. After leaving the dr. office today my husband took me to IHOP, and I ate a big breakfast. I'm feeling better and know I'll be growing stronger and be ready for April 15th, my day to kick the beast out of my body. Hope each of you are having a good day.0 -
