Good Morning Tonya! You told them...that's so good. For them and for you. You'll get lots more hugs (God's precious medicine) and tons of energy and spirit boosts from their love and concern. My granddaughter went with us to treatment yesterday and wrote me a little letter while I was in the treatment room. It allowed her to express her fear of losing me and to tell me she loves me and doesn't want me to leave her ever! Maybe some time going to a quick movie or pizza or something easy to talk at would help her process and help you release your concern for her. I'm sending a giant hug and some "secret fun smiles" from my house to yours! I'm praying and believing that your victory will be celebrated for many, many years together with your daughter in special ways! Lots of love, ma
