Today an aquaintance told me that she thought I was very brave. I told her that brave has nothing to do with it. She said if it was her she would probably just give everything up and hang out in Florida. I tried to explain that I was doing this for my girls, and my grandchildren and my husband. Not just for me. As hardship goes, this has not been the worst thing in my life. But I cannot imagine being in your position. I think daily of all of you who have small children with or without husbands. I cannot imagine the strength that you need to get through this or the fear. I have constantly been thankful that my children are grown. I have had terrible problems with depression in my life and the only way I got through it was to keep the wellbeing of my family first and foremost in my mind. Just remember that this moment, this hour, this day is all you have to deal with at this moment. And it is okay if you drop a few balls now and then. I will keep you in my prayers. Leslie
