Thank you for leading the way and taking us...Maxmom<br />Thank you for leading the way and taking us on your journey,,,<br />This is a powerful, beautiful story that you shared with us. <br />Sometimes we need to stop and then allow ourselves to listen. To find peace when there seems like there is none, because our hearts are fluttering so fast from fear.<br />Your words ring so true. If we could learn to enjoy each day to the fullest..... to grasp the time we have left and run and enjoy life,, even in its final stages,, just like Maxdog. Maxdog lived life to the fullest.<br />Thank you for taking me by the hand and leading the way.<br />love<br />tweedlesTweedles -- that's mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01349728497621875670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339087872750174307.post-4416853290360963902010-10-01T03:07:27.600+02:002010-10-01T03:07:27.600+02:00Hospice really is a wonderful thing.

I find that I've learned the same thing from my medical adversities - most days, it helps me rise above the "stuff" that can hold me back.<br /><br />But, how I'd love for us to find a way to cure cancer. My mother would be 74 years old if she's survived her cancer 22 years ago. Both of my dogs who succumbed to cancer would have certainly lived longer lives. It's time for our best scientists to figure this out!<br /><br />I wear a Livestrong wrist band that I put on my wrist the day that my yellow lab, S, was diagnosed with cancer. Although he departed more than a year ago, I can't bear to take off the wristband. I wear it for him and all others who have suffered from this disease. Believe it or not, I had cancer at age 18 - but it was a curable thyroid type. I was lucky - I hope that others can be too. Or, better yet, maybe luck won't be needed someday.<br /><br />Here's to your mother-in-law and to MaxDog.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339087872750174307.post-29027564921826953432010-09-30T23:57:55.436+02:002010-09-30T23:57:55.436+02:00Thank you so much for this post, we lost our beaut...Thank you so much for this post, we lost our beautiful daughter-in-law Jennifer to ovarian cancer November 8, 2009.<br />Jen was diagnosed in August 2008 and up until the final two weeks of her life, she did truly "Live Life To The Max.<br />Don't take anything for granted, we never ever thought of the changes all our lives have taken.<br />Hug your family, tell them you love them, Hug your pets and walk with God.<br />Sheila & BobSheila and Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16135729625488570448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339087872750174307.post-77854916570358768722010-09-30T23:42:03.965+02:002010-09-30T23:42:03.965+02:00Another amazing post from you.
