In my heart of hearts, I feel we'll both be around for a long time to come, too. Also, a friend sent me this Michael J. Fox quote, which I love: “Don’t spend a lot of time imagining worst-case scenario. It rarely goes down as you imagine it will, and if by some fluke it does, you will have lived it twice.” Booby and the Beasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01130302818680322634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238780007621149539.post-60814212197370359962013-01-05T09:18:08.219-08:002013-01-05T09:18:08.219-08:00Your writing is an inspiration. Even though it is...Your writing is an inspiration. Even though it is Dick, not me, ( and our ages are certainly not in your category) I feel those same emotions. When I put up the Christmas tree, take down the Christmas tree, I wonder what my next year will look like. Even though he doesn't express those emotions, I can sense it all in him. Is it better for me to keep up a stiff upper lip; or is it better to let him see my tears flow?<br />He just had his 4th new round of Taxol and Carboplatin due to the rise in his CEA numbers and increase in his chest nodes. This treatment seems to be working: Chemo kicking his butt harder this time. In my heart I feel you both will be around your loved one for a long time. My prayers are with you - always.<br /><br />Susan Gerbec<br />Susan Gerbecnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238780007621149539.post-11781292574688801662013-01-04T22:50:03.905-08:002013-01-04T22:50:03.905-08:00Thanks, dear Paulla.

Clearing them out is an ongoing process.

Although I am not in your shoes, never the less, the emotions are the same. Thank you for sharing so openly and remember how deeply loved you are my friend!!! Deeply loved!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
