Hello everyone,
I just wanted to add to what Barbara's post said about "living in the moment." I think that is what has helped me also.
Each day when I rise, I try to remember to thank the Lord for this day. I thank Him for my good health but more importantly I ask Him to lead me this day to what He wants me to do..........to spread His love and to live for Him. That helps me to stay focused on the "now." On "today."
I have come to the conclusion that I cannot live my life worrying about my tomorrow's - worrying about a cancer recurrence - worrying about how long I will live. I have always believed - but believe to a stronger degree today - that my life has been put here by God to fulfill a purpose. When that purpose is fullfilled He will be calling me Home to Himself.
That is how I "survive." One day is more than enough for me and when those doubts about cancer recurrence come I immediately try to put them out of mind as I concentrate on this phrase "God has put you here now - live for this moment."
Peace to each of us.........................
Mary Jo
