Try, Try, Try.....

Lo and behold you can now "un delete your blog" and if your reading this you will see that is what I've done!

I can't make any promises, I love reading blogs but I don't have much to say as of late that seems worth blogging about. I do however have news... my mom has breast cancer... that ugly word... you never want to have to hear it and each time you do, you just never get used to it.
We are very thankful that this is a slow growing cancer with a high cure rate, of course even with that said.. my mom has cancer.. and that alone is like a punch in the gut!

My mom is one heck of an amazing woman.. such a fighter with the most positive attitude, this is making it bearable for me, as I take my cue from her.. if she became panicked I would as well, again.. she is my mama and knows me so well, if she is having those moments (as I'm sure she has and will) she keeps them from her anxiety ridden daughter... again.. what an amazing woman.. always thinking of her family first.

So, now we wait.. wait to find out the results of her PET scan to make sure that nasty cancer hasn't spread to any other area.. if it is contained to her breast then off they come within a week or so.. if not.. some chemo first... waiting, waiting, waiting... praying, praying, praying!!!

And then we have Alex... poor thing has been sick for six days with stomach flu... looks like he may finally be on the mend.. his appetite is still poor but he has finally been up and about today and playing some toys (always a good sign!) now if I can stay well.. then it will all be good!

So... I am back.. I am going to try to post more often and see if I can't find the joy that I used to from blogging... Peace to you all my dear blog friends!!

Tracy, you have been missed! One thing I learned from having "writer's block" is that I compared my blog to others and felt I didn't "mearsure up", that people were not interested. Well, I have 34 followers, and lots of other bloggers have over a hundred or more. Don't put pressure on yourself. Just be yourself and post whatever touches you at the time.

I am sorry to hear of your mother's cancer, but I have the sense that she is going to be okay. Trust in the Lord with all your soul; He has her in the palm of His hand and He will take good care of her. Lean on Him ....

Anytime you need to "talk", just let me know.

Blessings,
Abbey ♥

Welcome Back! Please know that I'm praying for your mom! Breast cancer changes your life...that's for sure. She has a good support system and that's half the battle!
Hang in there and keep us posted on the PET Scan results!

Tracy,
I will pray for your Mom, for sure.

Don't forget to invoke the special help of all the saints - especially St. Jude!
