Rest peacefully Mum..

Hi Janey

Yes..that is the right song! We however used Daniel O'Donnell version of the song at my Mum's funeral....my twin sister lives in Ireland where Daniel resides and co-incidently his wife has just been diagnosed with BC too - this is the song he's using to get her throught her journey!

How wonderful hey that it has such meaning to so many of us......you for your lovely Dad....me for my beautiful Mum....and for all of us sharing BC!

Lovely to meet you on this site...I feel like you will be one of many helping me along the way! ( And in turn hoping you are getting help also ofcourse!)

Big hug - Jenny x

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers Melanie...so nice to have people who care...and yes, my family is just gorgeous!

Good karma to you...Jenny x

Thanks so much Mich for your lovely, supportive message....I am so glad to have found this site and know it will be a great source of love and understanding from others who have been through or going through the same thing.

I will miss my Mum more than anything....and having the diagnosis at the same time is the hardest situation I've ever had to deal with! I guess I will prove how strong I can be and be able to overcome it....

Thank goodness for modern technology and fabulous network of caring ladies.

Good luck to you too...Jenny x

Thanks for your lovely, welcoming message Chris.  It's so lovely to find such understanding and supportive ladies such as you....my cancer journey will be as difficult as everyone else's but thank God for our modern technology is here to help each other out!

I will miss my beautiful Mum so much......she will be offering her guidance and love from above I am sure!

Best of luck for your future too Chris...Jenny x

It's lovely that you have adopted "One Day At A Time" as your motto. It may not be but if it is the song I think it is, it was a song written by Marijohn Wilkinson & Kris Kristofferson and my Dad recorded it in the late1970s. I play it all the time as well as his other records and it's my motto too. My Dad passed away 25 years ago and I think of him every day. I drew a picture of him and it's up on my lounge room wall and I glance up with him smiling down. If it's not a song you were talking about, it still gave me a nice surprise. Taking things "One Day At A Time" Love Janey xxx

Thanks for your lovely message Donna.....my Mum hadn't been well for the last 14 months and I totally understand how hard it would've been for my Mum to have the added stress of seeing me going through the surgery and treatment I need.

As much as I will love her forever and wish she was still here, I also am glad she is no longer in pain or suffering.....and instead watching from up above and sending healing thoughts to me!

My best wishes to you to....so glad to have found this site and all the lovely support I am getting!

Hi Magicmum,

Your message was just so lovely...and exactly what I needed to hear! Our Mums really are such special people in our lives and despite yours and mine living to a lovely old age, it is still a big shock when we lose them.....but as you said, they are always with us!

I feel it's been so unfair to lose Mum at the same time as my surgery as I haven't been able to give her all my thoughts...so feeling a bit ripped off about it! Hard to explain but dealing with two bouts of bad news has been hard to deal with simultaneously....if this makes sense?

I am so glad to have come across this site and it really makes me feel like I am defo not alone in this journey...all new for me, the future is daunting but I know it will all be positive....my Mum just as yours wouldn't want it any other way! The day after my diagnosis and the day before my Mum passed away she told me "It will all be alright"....and I believe it......at my Mums funeral Dad selected "One Day at a Time" and this is my motto now......

I wish you all the best too and glad to know you are there for me too!

That is such sad news, loosing a parent is hard enough, let alone right ontop of being diagnosed with Breast Cancer. My heart goes out to you. Many times through my treatment i wished my mama was alive, that she was there holding my hand and helping me through, but then I thought how hard it would have been for her to watch me go through all the treatments.

Wishing you well with your on going surgery and treatment.

cheers
