I generally do not use my blog to go personal, but tomorrow is a day my family and I have been anxiously awaiting. In March of this year, my amazing, beautiful, awesome, yet total goof of a mother was diagnosed with Stage 2 invasive ductal carcinoma. It has been exactly what one could imagine; hard to hear the news, harder to watch as she went through treatments, bumps, ups, and a lot of emotion along the way... 5 months, 3 kinds of Chemo, and 16 treatments. Tomorrow is treatment 16!!!! :)
Mom, you are simply amazing. You have not only stood up and fought this disease, but you have shown those around you how to fight with courage, grace, and charisma. I am so proud of how you. I know the battle is not over, as surgery is a month away, but this is the point where you can start to see a sunnier horizon and move forward to the next chapter, a stronger woman.
I love you so much!!! Good luck tomorrow, I will be thinking of you all day!
xoxo

Love you Lisa, christen
this post is awesome! Very well said, Meggy! I will be thinking of Lisa tomorrow :)
Lisa - you have shown those of us that know you personally and those who only know you professionally how to fight cancer with a smile and an amazingly upbeat attitude un-matched by anyone. I am honored to call you a friend (although most times I call you family!). I will be thinking of you tomorrow more than most days. Love You. Jess (and girls)
Tears streaming down my face, I can honestly say that was so beautiful Meg! You are right about that momma bean of yours, she is over the top AWESOME! She will be close to my heart tomorrow and I am seeing those sunnier days already through the clouds! P.S. LOVE the peach fuzz!
Beautiful. Mark and Lisa have created a wonderful, loving family and circle of friends. The fruits of your labor are evident, especially w/Lisa's valiant fight against cancer.
