hate mothers day

Hey Terry

I am glad your spirits lifted as the day went on.  It can be such a joyous day but it can also be such a hard hard day.  I don't even remember my mothers day last year.  I know I was into my chemo and not in a good place so that is what I remember.  I can assure you that next year will be better and if not you will have grown from all this and be stronger and will make it a better mothers day because every single milestone becomes huge for us because we have made it and we are here to celebrate it with others or on our own, doing big things or just lil things.  I was so happy this mothers day to be alive and well again and to see my kids and grandkids and my mother inlaw and give her a big hug and say happy mothers day to her and to think of my mum with some happy thoughts and wish her well.  Plus to get to say happy mothers day to all them mums out there whether they have kids, dogs, cats, birds, chickens, cows or whatever they are mums and have someone to love and be loved, just like you.

Your pink sisters hear you and know exactly where you are coming from. I can remember a few very very angry days throught my journey but it passes and you move on to the next phase and you deal with that and the next and the next until you reach that light at the end of the tunnel and you have survived that very bumpy ride so hang in there and come back and chat whenever you need us.  

I also know that Cancer Council Hotline is another good source when we need to reach out.  I think they are 131120.

Thinking of you and wishing you nothing but good thoughts and good health.

Lots of love, Mich xoxoxoxo
