Today I went into surgery in tears and woke up from surgery euphoric……I’M ALIVE!!!!!!
I’m also ‘HOME’ a day early, and ready to begin the rest of my life….!
I had such major misgivings about this surgery. I’m not sure exactly why, maybe I’ve just been through so much and couldn’t bear the thought of going back to do it all again. I was remembering the nightmare of the pain getting ahead of me (won’t happen this time). The horror of chemo (also won’t happen this time).
I am eternally grateful for all the positive energy you’ve all sent. Your powerful prayers have brought me to this happy conclusion, how blessed I am to know you. I’m feeling a wonderful sense of peace. Thank you for being in my life.

Hallelujah!!! XO
AMEN! Now peacefully heal. Love you, friend!
What great news.. I could hear the relief in your voice! You have been so brave throughout this ordeal. I checked the definitions of stoic (which I know you’ve been) and brave .. and have decided that you were the BRAVEST of the brave:
bold, intrepid, daring, dauntless, heroic. Brave, courageous, valiant, fearless, gallant refer to confident bearing in the face of difficulties or dangers. Brave is the most comprehensive: it is especially used of that confident fortitude or daring that actively faces and endures anything threatening. Courageous implies a higher or nobler kind of bravery, esp. as resulting from an inborn quality of mind or spirit that faces or endures perils or difficulties without fear and even with enthusiasm. Valiant implies a correspondence between an inner courageousness and external deeds, particularly of physical strength or endurance. Fearless implies unflinching spirit and coolness in the face of danger. Gallant implies a chivalrous, impetuous, or dashing bravery.
Yep .. you are the definition of Brave. And I’m so proud of you.
