Re: Cancer is back...I just knew it.

Dear Chelee,
Just wanted you to know that you are also in my prayers. The crazy quote below, in my signature, came from a get well card that I received last September when I was early in this battle. For some reason, whenever I was especiually low, this is the one I would dig out and reread. The message for me was, "If you are going through hell, you cannot stop and get stuck. You have to keep going to get out!" So, my prayer for you is that you dig deep, pull up that grit you have, and keep going until you are once again out of this situation.
Lots of Hugs,
Sandra
