Big Billy

I can not begin to describe how excited I was today to receive a copy of "Coping"!   I practically skipped back in to the house.   Smile

Thanks to Craig for bringing brave Billy to us and to inspire us to keep on keeping on.  Hope you are feeling well! 

Hugs,

Mary Carol

    HEY!!  LOOK AT YOU!!  I am

     

    HEY!!  LOOK AT YOU!!  I am sitting here having just read the article, and I have tears streaming down my face.  My first statement out loud when I opened up that page was, "Look at you! There he is, my dear friend, looking back at me through those dark shades." What a beautiful sight.  :)   What can I say, I'm so dang proud of your and your accomplishments.  Now I'm tearing up again...but good tears.  :)

    Many big Texas sized hugs!!  (((())))

    Thank You Bunches

    Was so excited to see this in the mail today and personally signed by Craig.  Very excited and I'll put that one right next to the other magazine about him.  Thank you Craig for your strong support of this board and the message you bring to the country about CRC.

    I received my copy today

    I received my copy today too.  Thanks Craig!  You are such an inspiration and I am so proud of you that you have published your article.  I LOVE it!!!  I know we all read it (or some of it?) here but it's a different feel altogether to have it in your hands and personalized by you.

    Long live Big Billy!...the Beast's Nemesis!

    Thanks again, Craig.

    We got ours too!!

    Robert said he's had those feelings....I never knew, he doesn't talk much about those things.

     

    I am making copies to take and leave in the infusion room tomorrow.

    HI Angela:)

    I think those feelings are universal in their very nature...

    I'm glad Robert got to read it....and glad you got the chance as well....great idea about the infusion "infusion."

    Take care!

    Yes, it was cool to see it in real print.....different layout than the online version too....they featured BB more than me, LOL!

    Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for sticking around to see what I'm up to next:)

    Thanks, Cyn!

    BB got a bigger picture spread than I did:)   Go figure!

    They took some of the good stuff out, but it had to be done to get me in the mag.  They used much of my work and it stayed true to the story content pretty good.  Still pretty cool to have this  on your resume.

    You know how I feel about writing and reaching out to folks....you know this would be my biggest disappointment....even over death itself....because it would be a living death to me. 

    I haven't been able to write much lately.....so much going on...and I've got so many things to still figure out and get answers on.....life stuff as well as cancer stuff.

    I hope one day to be able to write stuff to you all again, but of course, have no definitive timetable.  I sure miss talking to you guys and talking about the issues. 

    Thank you for continuing to stand with me:)
