Hi Lily
I am so sorry that you're having these issues to deal with.
Please remember Jean's "Sister's" poem


the women in your life
will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on,
praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on
your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the
valley's end.
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk
beside you...or come in and you carry you out.


And you've also got your special brothers - Lee, Bill, Doug, Eric and RB. As Caya said, we are all here for you.

Lily I am praying that when you see the doc tomorrow that things work out for you. In the meantime I know we all want to live as normal a life as possible and make things normal for our families, such as vacations etc., but we all have to remember that we are the ones fighting and when we have trouble we have to be a little selfish and take care of ourselves. Keep up the fight girl!

Dear Lily

I just wanted to let you know that I am rooting for you, not from the sidelines but beside you.

Keep thinking only the best thoughts and know that there are so many options left out there to get you into the remission you deserve.

Love,
