I have written a few things based on what I learned from people with their backs against the wall. My co-author on a couple of books was given six months to live about thirty years ago and she is still doing fine. What you want to have happen, and I know it is tough - really tough, is to have your numbness turn into a sense of peace.You move from strength much easier when you start in peace. If you want, go to my website on www.mystresscoach.com(I have another website just focused on these issues in the works) and click on my blog Rainbows Happen. On the top entry is a link to a presentation I put together.I love it and I have gotten a lot of positive comments from people who have seen it, especially people in difficult situations.<BR/>Best to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10577926.post-1147362704352529752006-05-11T10:51:00.000-05:002006-05-11T10:51:00.000-05:00I will be thinking of you.

Even though you would never acknowledge it you are a hero to so many. The world is sorely lacking real heroes and I truely believe God hand-picked you knowing that you would touch so many lives. By the way I was real proud of your son scoring a goal in the soccer game last week but what really spoke volumes was the way he ran over to you after the game and jumped in your arms. Not only are you a hero to all of us but it is obvious you are a hero to him and a great father.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10577926.post-1147328773525790052006-05-11T01:26:00.000-05:002006-05-11T01:26:00.000-05:00David,Praying even more often for you now.

But, I know you can handle it and with God's grace it will be much easier than what you anticipate, if that is what has to happen. As you know, I was very concerned about starting chemo - heck, and I haven't made this too public (until now), but I even started smoking again the week before it started. How is that for a dumb move? It has not even come close to what I thought it would be. Now I know that some have a rough time but I am sure you are stronger than you may believe you are. Hang in there friend, you have many people supporting you.John Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17473272053117617993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10577926.post-1147319814539341912006-05-10T22:56:00.000-05:002006-05-10T22:56:00.000-05:00David, I called mother a little bit ago when I got...David, I called mother a little bit ago when I got your PSA number. Your name, along with the rest of your family, remains in a prominent place in her bible. She prays for you often, as do I, and many others.<BR/><BR/>Peace be with you.<BR/><BR/>JeffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
