I have been wanting to try and get a grant from the Komen breast cancer foundation to start a breast cancer program in my town. It due next week and i havent' gotten it done yet. This week a part time job came open in the oncology dept where i already work. I work in the clinic side. I went and applied wed. Today i found out i got the job. Now i don't know what to do about the grant. I don't want to over extend myself, but i want to give back the best way i know how, and that would be nursing. The director said i got the job because everyone that applied basically was doing it for the extra money. I don't even know what they are going to pay me!! She knew i wanted to do it for the right reasons. I'm excited, but scared all at the same time. I know it will bring back some bad memories, but i know i can help. I was just thinking today. If this cancer doesn't ever come back, this would have been the best thing that happened to me getting cancer. I look at everytihng differently. I cried tonight when i put my daughter to sleep. I don't deserve the things that i have. If i would die tomorrow, i'm so thankful i was not born into a nation that i had to worry every day about my life and my families. I had a great life. I had everything i ever wanted. Yes. i wish i could have a LONG time, but at least i had it.
