I just had to let everyone know how proud I am of my daughter, Jennifer(32) and granddaughter, Julia(4). Yesterday they both got their PINK HAIR for BC awareness to support me and all of my pink warrior friends. Jen has been a rock since my dx and treatments. She lives 2hrs away but calls everyday and even arranges special surprises for me. One day I answered the door to find the local Boy Scouts cleaning up my flower beds. She had contacted them and they made my yard their weekly project. Julia always asks if I've taken my medicine and if I was brave and didn't cry. Little does she know I cry everytime she asks me.Just had to let you all know again how proud and honored I feel.

    You are truly blessed. That is how I feel about my family also. Daughter and family 2 grand-daughters 1 grand-son are very supportive. Son and family 1 grand-son and grand-daughter send e-mails of support. Family and Faith is where our strength comes from. Pray constantly for yourselves and all on this board. "If God has brought you to it, He will get you through it."

    You are very fortunate to have a loving and caring daughter. What a wonderful surprise to answer the door and receive your latest gift. Family has always been the backbone of my life and I am so thankful for them. I can't imagine going through this without them but I do know that the ladies and men on this site are the next best thing!! Take care.

    aww your daughter &
    aww your daughter & granddaughter sound like sweet hearts. It's kinda funny that since my mom & I are both going through breast cancer together, we STILL do those little things & surprises for each other. I'm glad that you have the love & support of your daughter while you're going through this, it makes all the difference in the world to have a great support system :)

    proud mom and grandma
    What a great story-you must be so proud of them. I too have had tremendous support from both of my daughters (Melissa-33 & Krista 26) who have taken the stand that cooking healthy foods will help me along-they bring me containers of food they have prepared and make sure that I eat them. They each call me every day to check on me-(they live a little over an hour away)My granddaughters(Maggie-5 and Kaitlyn 3) are always surprising me with little cards that they make and always their smiles and hugs and kisses make everything better.
    I am truly blessed.
