Are you still lurking around out there? I just wanted to check on you, and say hi!

Hi Renee, yes I'm still around as I see you are. I've been reading posts to see if there are any questions I can help others with. As you know all too well, some questions just can't be answered. That is the most frustrating thing with cancer. I don't know if there really aren't answers or if the doctors don't want to scare you with the truth.

I just ordered some Living Strong yellow bracelets for my family. My son wanted one - a lot of kids in his school wear them so I thought it was a good idea to give a couple this year for Christmas.

How are you and your family doing? We've gotten past the 'why' stage and now seem to be in the 'still don't believe it' stage.

Hi there, yes, I am still here as well. I can not pull myself away from this place, I have no desire to. I always think "maybe I can help one person". Unfortunately, I do not have the power to do that. If I did, Scott would still be here with me. We are all making it (our families), somehow, just a long hard battle. With the holidays, as you know, it is so much harder. Once I get past Christmas, I will have New Years and then our anniversary. I just pray for strength each day, and make it through the best I can.

I have one of teh bracelets, a friend bought it for me. I think it is a great idea for you to buy them for friends and family. I see so many peopel wearing them, and happy to see it.

I hope you and your family are doing well, I know this is a tough time for all.

Renee
