Default Thoughts & prayers, please!

My daughter (BSc. computers, Bsc Geog, MA Geog), 35 yrs old was been diagnosed with breast cancer in December of last year. It has since metacised to her bones. She has undergone the normal chemo(which continues) and the radiology. Oma & I spent most of the first half of this year "hotelling" it in Edmonton, while Cathy, as a patient at the Cross was being treated. Please give her some of your thoughts in your busy days!!

My cousin, an RC bishop in Brazil, and close acquaintace of the late John Paul II, called me and informed me that there would be prayers and Masses wherein Cath would be remembered.

Oma & I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It has been difficult for us to get our heads around the fact that our child will beat us the the hereafter.

Opa, I've was at the cross this year getting myself looked after and i would be surprised if your daughter can find better care then there.
There is a lovely lady on here that provided me with alot of inspiration and maybe Terri will chime in.
I was told over and over to stay positive and i believe this is very important.
Be strong be positive
best wishes from my family to yours.

Myself and my kids just said a prayer before we say down to eat....and we arent a religious family. You make sure she kicks this things ass sir. Too young to be dealing with that. I have faith.

Damn.

Prime of life.

Opa, tell her to stay positive.
There are lots of good books on using this tactic as an advantage to beating cancer.
