Constants

Happy one year anniversary!

Lumpectomy done. check.

As you can see I was loved and supported by my lovely family.

Cindy came to the hospital and was there for me and Patrick.

The above picture is from the day after my surgery.  You can see I was feeling just fine.

For me surgery is no big deal. 

Wound care (bad care)

Chemo side effects.

ER visits.

Big deal.

I did have great results from my surgery so for that I am very grateful.

(Clear margins and no cancer in lymph nodes)

But most of all I think of all my loved ones.

My constants.

And I feel so very thankful and blessed.

Love you. Mean it.

*******

Still Here

been scared and battered.

My hopes the wind done scattered.

Snow has friz me,

Sun has baked me,

Looks like between 'em they done

Tried to make me

Stop laughin', stop lovin', stop livin'--

But I don't care!

I'm still here!
