Hi Shannon! I read your blog and try to find the words to encourage you...I read Alisha's entry and think "WOW"!!!! I can actually visualize you standing in the window and letting God's sunshine pour over you...Alisha encourages me as well as you. Isn't God good how he uses people in ways we never expect :)
Well...I'm praying for disability to go through without any problems, that your body recovers quickly, and I rejoice with you that chemo is DONE!!!!
Love ya!

You probably haven't had the energy or the even "want to" to look outside your window but girl...SPRING is a comin. I smell it in the air. I cant wait for you to be able to walk out your front door and hear the birds and smell the ground beginning to thaw. I'm really just a country girl who grew up helping my mom in her garden and this time of the year reminds me of when we would till the ground for the first time. I actually like the smell of dirt. Its fresh and smells clean to me. I just don't like it on my clothes or on my kids clothes or in my house on the floor. You know what I mean. We've talked about those boys. Now I have a little neice and you won't believe it. She loves the dirt. How precious is that. Her birthday is next week and I have bought her all sorts of garden tools. I can not wait to get her into our garden. Thats where she goes every time we get outside. Straight to the garden. Precious I tell you.
I love the seasons God gave us - all of them. Each one is special and this is your season for healing Shannon. I know I have said it before but I am so excited for you because your season of healing is no mistake. God is giving you this spring to heal. It's grace flowing down from God onto your pretty head and all over your weakened body. This is a season of opening those curtains and letting His light in, physically and spiritually. Soak up His rays.
When Mom and Dad had their greenhouses Mom and I planted thousands of flowers and before we would leave the greenhouse at the end of the day Mom would yell into the greenhouse just before she shut the door "GROW!". I guess that's what i feel like telling you "HEAL, GROW, STRENGTHEN YOURSELF IN THE LORD Girlfriend!"
Love you Shannon.

Let us know how your doing as soon as you feel up to it. I don't know why I should think you will just immediately bounce back after your last treatment but I guess I keep think that this is it. Everyday you can only feel better and better because you wont have to take chemo anymore.

I am feeling your struggle. Not physically...maybe a little physically. Emotional stress eventually effects you physically. Chemo is soooo draining especially and mainly for you but I know you already know it is draining on your family. We care so much and hurt so much to see a loved one go through such an ordeal. Quite frankly - I hate it with a passion. This disease is looking life and death straight in the eye and realizing you are only what God will allow you to be. That's comforting and very scarey at the same time.
Just know that all of your friends and family can't wait for your chemo to be over too!!!! Not that I would wish this on anyone...you know from my own experiences for this to be true. But I have to say that it is tough times like these that change us the most and the fastest. Maybe God is partly saying, girls I don't have 15 years for you and your friends to change. I need change now. Isn't that what we always pray "Lord, Change me!" Guess what? You can check that one off the list as D.O.N.E. Done. And praise God all this agony is NOT in vain.
I love you Shannon and I can't wait to see you recover. May God be praised! He sees the end from the beginning and He never changes in the middle:) Peace out, Sweet One!
