If typing is too difficult, please don't force yourself to do it, Jane. Rest up for your father and brother! You need your strength so you can really enjoy being pampered.....love you, Susan

Jane,

You have a knack for echoing my sentiments to a tee. Rick and I have heard over and over, it could be worse, it could be better, it could be, BLAH BLAH BLAH....but you are SOOOO SOOO right...IT IS WHAT IT IS. BOTTOM LINE!!!!!!!

You have so graciously let so many in on your journey. This blog will continue to inspire people for many, many years to come. Your raw honesty, remarkable courage and delightful humor draws many daily visitors to your blog.

I encourage the bloggers who read but are afraid to post to do so... it is really quit simple. You don't have to register if you don't want...just leave a line or two and then click on anonymous. You can sign your name or not. Just that simple.

Lifting you today in prayer Jane, as I will continue to do so daily. Enjoy your Dad... he is going to burst when he sees Tim on stage!

Hugs and kisses.......linda f

"It is what it is" was our motto for the last nine months Jane. ;-)

Any "it" in life brings unexpected blessings.

When the "it" is cancer, it's the people that you meet or those you inadvertently inspire that are the blessings. There are good and bad things in all of life's ups and downs, and learning to cling to the silver linings is what makes it doable.

I cannot imagine never having known you Jane. I still distinctly remember meeting you at WC's Relay 4 years ago: your cheerful voice rings still in my ear. I praise God for bringing us together and for our friendship. His purpose and plan for you is crystal clear.

Enjoy those lobsters with your DAD tonight! Sorry I couldn't bring myself to picture them!

I love you! ~ JK
