I don't kn...First of all, I love the blog name. I don't know who thought of it, but kudos.<br /><br />Secondly, holy shiz. Since hearing the news, I've bawled, questioned, cackled (with my mom), prayed, fasted as long as I could (one meal these days), and thought about you constantly. I've come to a couple of conclusions.<br /><br />#1. As I told Shannon, you never want this to happen to anyone, let alone anyone you love, let alone anyone you love A LOT, let alone anyone you love a lot who has had to deal with so much other crap in her life. However, if it had to happen, you sure are stuck within a wonderful support system, and your family is at the top of the list. Ahem, I heard about "the cake", and was more pleased to hear you all got a good laugh out of it. It sounds like the Smiths we all love are already in full swing. <br /><br />#2. Whatever you need, you're going to get, whether that be from doctors, nursing staff (I love those nurses), family, pseudo-family, RS members, old friends, answers to prayers of frustration, etc. You WILL get it.<br /><br />#3. The first thing I thought of when Shannon told me the news was a line of wisdom told from our pulpit here from the YW president and one of my new friends. She had just returned from a rough week with her sister's family because her 19-yr old nephew had finally succumbed to a mental disease and committed suicide. During the funeral, a speaker mentioned the words she would later repeat for us that have stuck with so many: "There are times in our lives when things happen that we, as human beings, don't understand. When those things happen, it is imperative that we cling to the things we do understand." It brought a lot of comfort then, and it brings a lot of comfort now as I think of you and everything you must be questioning (and cursing - c'mon, it's not like I don't know you). Cling to the things you do understand, and little by little maybe we can all get through this a little wiser.<br /><br />#4. You're gonna have some pretty sweet-looking scars. You and Steve ought to play connect the dots or tic-tac-toe or something. Just consider them outward bragging rights. I remember one Sunday bemoaning how hard it was to buy clothes sometimes because my boobs were too big for the rest of my body (don't really have that problem anymore - my body caught up). Donna overheard this complaint and just came up beside me and said "try finding clothes for just one boob." You get to shop in the girls' section now!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774990897606692850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4477630841659418500.post-23262799466575238432010-03-29T20:55:36.342-07:002010-03-29T20:55:36.342-07:00janet smith – "ya got to keep ya head up even...janet smith – "ya got to keep ya head up even when the road is hard never give up!!!!" there's a little tupac in all of us and we need you to get gangster up on this retarded cancer crap.<br /><br />http://bit.ly/9uPJBZMykehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14630502608190560550noreply@blogger.com
