Hi Christina,

What a shock for you!  I wish you good luck with your chemotherapy--and I am happy that your prognosis is bright!

Thanks Leslie. Happy New Year to you.

Christina,

I lost my first wife to cancer...and my mother and current mother-in-law are cancer survivors.  I know that we do not know each other, but If there is ANYTHING that you need, do not hesitate to pick up the phone and I will do everything that I can to help.  God Bless...and you are in my prayers for a speedy recovery.

Clint Miller

Thank you Clint. Your kind words and understanding is much appreciated. Best of wishes to you in 2008

Christina, I'm glad the outlook is bright.  I will say a prayer for you and I'm sure everything will work out great.  Stay strong and good luck.

It may amaze you at how many of your friends and aquaintenances have also gone through something similar. The important part of that sentence is they did go through and come out on the other side and wiser for it. Now recognizing that vital most important part of the love of the family an friends and the total value that it has in each of our lives! Many many blessings and may you have long healthy years,yet to go through!

Thanks Roberta & Doris.  I am finding out that a lot of women have gone through the same thing or something very similar. The future does look bright and learning from this experience is key. Blessings to you all.

Christina what an amazing journey you are going through. So many people would have put off getting a tumor removed that they thought was non-cancerous.  What a blessing that you put yourself first and are on the right path.
We are behind you on your journey.  May God continue to surround you with Love & Support.

This year will be the best year ever.  Look forward to sharing in your triumphs. 

Christina,

Hoping and praying for a full recovery for you. 

Christina,

In the twinkling of an eye life can change and it caused me to focus more time on my family, wife and children.

If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed....

I will pray for your complete recovery which is your right to expect.

Tim

Thanks Tim. Faith is the answer.

I wish you good luck and I hope all goes well. 

Hi, Christina,

I just got your message from the Realty World site.  I wanted to get to know you better so I thought I would read some of your AR posts.  Wow... this is not what I expected.  I'm sorry this happened to you, but I know you will find the strength you need from your faith, friends, and family. 

I know what you mean about getting emotional when friends call to help out... I always say that I only cry when people are nice to me!  It does mean a lot though, and you need to go through those emotions.  Better to go through them with your friends than alone.  Be thankful (I'm sure you are!) that you have a good support system to share these time with you. 

My prayers and positive thoughts are with you!  Happy New Year, 2008.

Thanks for your kind words of wisdom Jan. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Christina, I usually read your blogs for beautiful Tennessee pictures, but I was shocked when I saw this one. I pray that you've recovered and are healthy again. This was bound to have been a very scary time for you. I've been there and know. 2008 must seem much brighter now! I'm thankful you're ok.

Christina, in our office three of us has had breast surgery to remove lumps and one agent had a masctomy last year.  I was one of the three. About 3 years ago the doctors thought that I had breast cancer.  I was blessed when it came out benign.  You have my prayers for a complete recovery.

I have been in many operating rooms.  The same way God continues to heal and deliver me, HE does the same for you.  As Tim stated you have the right to expect that.  

God's continued blessings to you and my prayers for you.....

Christina~ Take good care of yourself, and, as you have discovered, you are not in this alone!  When people offer to help, take them up on it.  Let us know how things are going, AR can be your biggest support group!

Christina, Thanks for your post.  Sharing each other's burdens as humans is a powerful way of reaching out.  Let me know if I can help you - I live in Tennessee too - Nashville - my prayers and thoughts will be with you!

Thanks Latonia, Lisa & Emily. Word of encouragement is are very much appreciated. Bless you all.

I have to agree with you strongly Lisa... AR is one of the best sources of communication for our business and Good Hearted People!  Thanks so much.

Christina,  You do not know me and my suggestion may not align with your spiritual beliefs.  But I offer my thoughts to you anyway.

Your worst enemy right now is any belief that this health challenge can rob you of a joy-filled and healthy life.  Now is the time to seek out your soul and spend time in deep contemplation of what your life is all about.  Know that there is much more for you to do in this world and visualize your body whole and completely disease free.

Remember the meaning of the word "dis-ease" and focus on finding ease with every moment possible.  Welcome all the well wishers and prayers as added energy for your complete recovery.  Become self-centered and do not allow anything that the doctors say (or the people that will tell you horror stories of disease and death) take your mind and soul off of knowing that you are healthy and whole.

Know that I hold a high energy of wellness for you.  You will soon look back at this time in your life and know why you came through the experience.  In some ways, you will see this challenge as a blessing.

Give and take care,

Kathi ! I love your outlook on life and obsticles. Thanks so much for your advice, it is very much appreciated. Bless you!

I popped to your blog to return the favor of your commenting on mine.  I was so sorry to read about what you have been having to deal with during this Holiday season.  Thank goodness medical care has come so far.  My brother is a survivor of cancer and I know how scary the word is but also how completely it can be eradicated.  I wish for your continued health and recovery and lots of joy in the year ahead.  Now, go make those biscuits and don't hold back on the butter!

Thanks Beth. By the way I made biscuits and lots of real butter. lol. Thanks

Christina, We were all worried sick about you!  I had a lot of people ask about you.  I hope you pull thru without a scratch!  We love you very much!  You make Real Estate a great place to be!  ~Your friend Kay.

Christina - I came back to revisit this post and to see how well you are doing. It is a scary thing to go through and just know that you have been lifted up in prayer.

Christina - You are an inspiration of strength to others that will have to endure the same thing. You are doing a great job keeping your head up and just tackling your obstacles as they arise. Keep up the awesome work girlie!

Kay, Thanks for the kind words and support. Your a friend for life.

Charity. Your an inspiration to me as well. Thanks

Thanks Linda. Prayer is very strong, I've always believed in it. I'm posting an update now. THANKS AGAIN.
