A Sad Day

It was a good day: worked out, lunch with the girls, DD1 and I made bracelets, then the 3 of us went to see Mr. Magorium.
It's just that, every now and then, I get the thought that the cancer will come back, and I will die. Today's one of the those days. Perhaps because Mr. Magorium deals with death, as does the movie I watched at home while I tidied: Marilyn Hotchkiss' Charm School and Ballroom Dancing.
I believe in God, and i believe in His plan for my life. And if I do die, I know I will go into the arms of Jesus. But, man, I don't want to go any time soon.
That's one of the main differences cancer has made in my life. i deal with the fear of death. Pre-BC, it simply wasn't an issue.

For the record, I don't want you to go anytime soon, either. :) I'm sorry you are facing that fear in a more concrete way than you did before. But hopefully it will help to know that lots of people out there want you to stick around. *hugs*

Can't think of any really eloquent words of wisdom here, so... sorry you had a tough day and hang in there! Do you get Dr. Steven Trammel's daily e-mail devotional from CFBC---even though you have defected?! Today was about "praying through" all of our anxieties and troubles on an daily/hourly basis. Trite, but true.
