Valentine Greetings

Happy Valentines Day everyone..it is a holiday of love...and I love you all for your support. I know more people are reading than responding, but either way thank you!! People live with autism, diabetes, asthma, or a pimple on their butt..I live with cancer which is just another cross to bear just like any other disease. I am feeling good and positive and going to turn this into to positive and help others. The heartache is not being able to gulp down an eggplant parm sub. I miss eating recklessly! hahaha I lost 5 pounds. Of course my mom wants to kill me before the cancer does. She actually offered to make me spinach today without the garlic. My response was somewhat emotional and she responded with an offer to make escarole (help me) ...Received the best t-shirts from the shore girls and KNOCKOUT INC. It made my day.They had all different sayings..one said I went to Chemo and all I got was this lousy T-shirt. I'm wearing that one tomorrow for my blood test. Have a great day everyone..blog ya soon....

  3. Hi Betty! I have been reading your blog posts and you are an inspiration to us all. Pretty sad that this is where I come to get a good laugh. You have such a sense of humor! This cancer has no idea who it is dealing with. It might be used to pushing other people around but our Bet surrounded by her army of friends is a force to be reckoned with. Eggplant parm might be off limits but what about meatballs?-Any Italian needs these to survive! Loving you and praying for you every day! Marian

    As NC State Women's Basketball coach Kay Yow said (as she was diagnosed with breast cancer), "When life kicks you, make sure it kicks you further down the road."

    Sheila & I think of you often and love you lots!
