I just had to take a moment and share this with you today! I spent an hour this morning sitting at my desk in my office at home praising God! I frequently listen to music while I work. I came across a CeCe Winans special a few days ago and have been listening to it. […]
To continue the story from my last post….. well let’s just say that the problem revealed during my ER visit a couple of weeks ago was just the beginning! I am writing today from my hospital bed at Piedmont Health in Athens. I have never felt the need to be special but always believed we […]
Throughout my cancer journey there have been many “you just can’t make this stuff up” moments. Times when I want to laugh and cry at the same time. Times when I initially felt defeated but then realized God’s provision and care for me once the dust settled. This was certainly the case over the past […]
We spent this past weekend at the beach, a place that always calms and centers me. My best friend of almost 20 years and her husband invited us down and it was exactly what we needed. As I spent the weekend with my husband and friends that know all that we are going through but […]
Today, Saturday, was laid back and lazy. I spent the whole day at home in my downstairs craft room making jewelry. I needed a day like this. A day to lose myself in the creativity of my hobbies, to be quiet and to myself. I needed this because the end of this week hit me […]

We just had the best weekend at home, in SC. Todd and I were reflecting on that this morning. We have settled into an early morning routine here in VA. He wakes me up around 5:45 every morning (yes, that is correct, 5:45) so that he can do my wound care and flush my pic […]
It’s been a couple if weeks since I sat down to write. As I think back over that time, it is hard to focus on one single theme for the ups and downs that seem to come at me like Death Valley doing the wave. So, let me go back and catch you up! July […]
