in Colorectal Cancer #1

well, it's been five years since I've heard those words "You have cancer". And later the ones that said I'm leaving this earth soon, well they were wrong about leaving soon, I at least think five years was a heck of an extension in this world.

Glad to be here still, glad to know you all, and life though getting harder (yes, I'm getting the oxygen tank) I still enjoy it.  Flying out to see daughter and grandchildren next week, need my fix of their love.

Luv and Hugs all

Winter Marie

    You are a fighter and an example

    You fight is a postitive example to all of us, plus it keeps you around, and that is a good thing. 

    Also your love of life, and not letting your health stop you unless its really, really bad. 

    Have a wonderful trip. What a blessing to be able to spend time with loved ones. I swear, this alone can keep us fighting the fight.

    Have a great time!

    Just got back from a week with the grandkids in CO. So much more meaning when they tell you your time is up and it turns out not to be so!

    I hope you have the best time ever!

    peace,
