thank u...

a couple of weeks ago, a good friend posted this video...i got all teary-eyed watching it - thinking about the many friends & family members that have supported & encouraged me...thru this whole cancer journey, and before!

i've been totally saturated with LOVE these past couple of months...as i got my initial diagnosis & then began treatment...not only from the close family, friends & co-workers that i see on a regular basis - but from YOU! from my blogger friends!

some of u r friends from long ago, & we've only recently reconnected...some of u, i have plans 2 meet someday...some of u, i'm not sure if i'll ever meet! it amazes me how well u know me - how connected i feel 2 u & ur families...we relate - through our daily stories of life's many trials & successes! i feel that i know u - i feel that i have a true friend in you!

so THANK YOU!

thank u for all the wonderful words, gifts, prayers & thoughts...thank u for being there!
