Re: Kvetching

Karen, I agree this club is very hard to explain to others. There is a confort here. A peaceful feeling that we can snuggle in and be who we now are. I had no idea it was in Gods plan for me to teach my children how to die.
Not tomorrow, not next year or for many years to come. God is the only one who knows the time. I plan to being here for a long time.
Though I live every day feeling that my friends and family look to me to learn how to die. Everyone is going to die, right? This is a gift (not one anyone would pick) I live with hope in our treatments and lives. I pray and plan on doing it very well, with Gods help.

Hope this doesn't flip anyone out. But you guys are talking about how we feel on the inside and this is how I feel.

These feeling give me hope.

can stand up under it."
