It's a roller coaster, Being Me. It's OK to have those down times, you've been handed one helluva a load to carry! You're a fighter so I'm confident you'll kick the crap out of this thing whether it be via chemo or radiation You remain in my prayers. You mentioned prayer earlier, Being Me and I have been praying in my sitch for my STBX to rediscover her faith. Yesterday, maybe a small step was taken when she called me over and in our discussions regarding the kids, she told me she "fully supported" me in taking our kids to church. She asked if there were any evening or summer church activities the girls could take part in as they needed "positive influences" in their lives (I could have said "then why don't you start being one!" ooh, so mean ). I told her I'd meet with our Youth Pastor and see what we could do, so we're meeting on Thursday evening. As I drove home, I pulled the car over to cry because it felt like just maybe my prayer was beginning to be answered! It's a little thing but it meant a lot to me. Keep on praying, Being Me!
