Loved it, Mary Jo! That fear-monster is awful and trying to control the uncontrollable terrifying! I can so relate! Learning to trust was also an Everest for me. Trust the young Oncologist. Trust the surgeon who looked barely out of diapers. Trust the big syringe full of chemo the color of wine not to kill me, but cure me. Trust Vitamin H to squelch the beast within my body. Trust in the goodness of God to turn all things to good for those who love Him. The journey...

I am already looking forward to next year's blog! Have a great 13th year, so many have joined that club of late! I am glad you are one of them!
