The last couple of days I’ve been on the emotional edge. Too close to tears over silly things, too close to anger over minor things, just too. Everything seems more detailed and important, but nothing has changed. Facing surgery, no matter how it seems to be a ‘done deal’, changes your approach to the day. I hope my friends, colleagues, and family will allow me some leeway right now. I will try to remember that it’s just Tuesday, nothing more.

Oh my! I’ve missed a couple postings. Forgive me. Reading your post has brought me back to reality, that you are still…in a word…fighting. I did not realize another surgery was near. I think your biggest battle remains, that with your mind, as you have your sleepless nights thinking about your cancer, that really, is gone. I can’t even imagine that fear or disturbance as I put my head on the pillow. I can only imagine how your emotions must sway at any given moment. But I do like your resolve…it’s just Tuesday, isn’t it? Just Tuesday. You are different than you were what has it been, 17 months ago? I applaud you for your courage, for your change, for your ability to let your emotions just be, now. Love you so much, Pat! I’m sure you will be given all the leeway you need. Be blessed!
