Other Blogs

Have you all taken a minute to use that view next blog icon when you are at this page? I do every now and again. It is amazing the amount of stories which are related to cancer, or others with a health issue or disease. Then when I find one (like I did just now, a breast cancer lady, 47) and I can't stop reading, sometimes it is just bad. It is like the train wreck no one can look away from. This woman recorded her symptoms, her struggles with double mastectomies, her reconstruction, and it is wow. I think how sad it is there are so many stories that are shared blogging which are related to disease. Then I think about this woman's struggles and it depresses me a little because cancer can be hard, it can take our loved ones, it can take joy, and it can break spirits. Anyway....I am so blessed to not have had all of the awful side effects that this woman had (she even lost total taste, how crappy is that?). I have only had a lumpectomy. It only took an hour! Does it take longer to get your tonsils removed? Really when I read something like that it is like a life check, remembering how much I have been blessed, what I have been spared from as of this moment, and God is good all of the time no matter what.
