Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass- it is about learning to dance in the rain.

Sorry I haven't been by in a while.

You look so great! Since my mother in law is not into technology, you are my inspiration for her and her battle with cancer.

Sarah,

SO sorry about your mother-in-law. She is fortunate to have you for support! One of the main differences between people who survive well and those who do not, is a support system. I'm not sure what I would have done without my sweet daughter-in-laws and my wonderful granddaughters. Not to mention my husband, my sons and a myriad of other friends and relatives.

I also have a wonderful cache of scarves, hats, and a couple of wigs (See October 22, 2006 for a pic) that I no longer need. I'm happy to pass things on should they be needed!

I think if we have God as our guide, people will feel the same way as you do. You're full of spirit!

You and your grand daughters look great!

Thanks for the visit!

Happy Sunday! :)

Hi PJ, You look wonderful today..When my daughter's hair grew back after chemo and breast cancer, it came back a darker shade and thicker... She is cancer free over 6 years now..God blesses us everyday.... Baba

PJ said...

Thanks Baba, my hair came back very curly (it had a bit of body and wave before) and a kind of sandy brown color. I've always been a redhead, so Clairol is my new best friend! I'm going to have to get it trimmed though. It is growing in lopsided!!
