I’m sad today ..

I’m sad because it hurts too much so I can’t go “work my business” and we need the money

I’m sad because I can’t be in the fashion show Thursday - can’t wear a bra and need that “boob”

I’m sad because I have REALLY watched what I ate last week (no sweets) and I gained another 3 pounds - I weighed 134 when I started and I just hit 150! The doctor said 20-40 pounds so I should feel good - but when I look in the mirror I see this GIGANTIC person and it makes me sick

I’m sad because I don’t sleep well so I don’t have the energy during the day to get much done.

I’m sad because I just want to feel like myself

BUT, I’m HAPPY because my God knows all of this .. is here with me … loves me … and will take care of me! He has bigger and better plans for me .. In HIS timing … HIS way … I just have to give it ALL to Him!

Ok, so there is one more step to this cancer journey! Yesterday, after radiation was done, I took the tape off that they used to “mark” where to “beam”. Well, because my skin was so fried - the skin peeled off to! Yes, PAINFUL! I am now being treated as a “burnt” victim in those 3 small areas - special creams and bandages etc. Pain pills a must!

Oh well - this too shall pass!

Then, we’ll start that next journey!

Living day by day as my Heavenly Daddy told me to - making the most of it for His Good!!

Talk later
