[QUOTE="HeadlightsMom, post: 678728, member: 18284"] First, thank you all so much for your kind words! It sure is hard work. Hardest thing I've ever done. And, for a time there, I thought it might strip me of all of the best of me. Turns out, it just rebuilt me better than I was before (suddenly, I hear the music from The Six Million Dollar Man in the background! LOL!) Sometimes, it still gets rubs me raw. But, you all know..........we survive. We learn, we grow, and, after enough time has passed..........WE PIVOT. This pivoting ability is transferable to all areas of life. Yesterday we learned a family member will not survive their bout with cancer. I was sad. I am sad, still. But it is all part of the process. So, I can make the choice, right now, TODAY, to PIVOT and make the most of what time we have left with this loved one. And we are. Again, thank you all for your kind words. And may all of your blessings abound and grow with every single PIVOT toward gratitude and opportunity. One time I turned to my husband and said, "Dang! How DID we survive this?" We both laughed and concluded, "We're pretty friggin' awesome, aren't we!" :D No arrogance in that......... just recognition of gratitude, opportunity, and.......uh.....sheer strength! We ALL have that strength..............and that's how we've made it this far and will continue to grow. Every time we CHOOSE to PIVOT. [/QUOTE]
