Dear Joy - thank you so much for having the courage to share how you are feeling. I have the same concerns about being around for my bubbas as they grow. They are such gifts.
I hope you get good news on your scans Joy. I know I felt some relief when my catsan I had this week came back clear. And even though the cancer is still in my bones - at least it is under some control. It all means extra time with my babies.
All those precious moments. I hope and pray you and your children still have many more to come!  All the best.
Blessings
Hermiracles.
