Dear Joy,
You have every right to whine. You are going through a difficult time right now. I am lifting you up in prayer as I type this to you. Just hang on. There will be others to encourage you soon. Even though you understandably do not want to get too exicted about your blood work, It is good, so hold on to that for now.
I too understand being upset with our physical apperance as well. I often look in the mirror and do not see the 37 year old women I used to be before bc. But then I have to remind myself, that even though I have thin, graying hair, one breast and and one arm larger than the other, I am still here for the kids. And fortunately, they take me as I am.
I pray that you will able to see a little bit of sunshine in your day today. I know it is not always easy but we are here for you.
Tonya
