It has been a whirl wind for this past couple of weeks. Melinda seems to be doing okay, this is going to be a journey. I only hope that I can give her encouragement and bring out the positive in this situatuion she is faced with.
The calcium in her blood seems to be having a hard time producing the amount it should. She is about 3 weeks away from getting her radiation treatment. where she will not be able to be around anyone for 5 days...with that being said, I am hoping this can turn into a spiritual experience for her. To be alone with only yourself. Finding out who you are, asking questions about where you are headed? What makes you happy? What are your goals? Are the friends you have right now helping you to get where you want to go?
We all have the p0wer to be and become whom ever it is we choose to be. The possibilities are limitless. All we can be sure of is right now. We can write out exactly what we think tomorrow will be like, what people will wear, what they will say to us, what sounds we will hear....and on and on. Just see if it plays out exactly like that.
We only have our moments NOW how we choose to use them is up to us. Melinda is a fitghter and I am so thankful that she has been allowing others to help her in this time of need. It is hard to be the one receiving but she has some really great friends who are taking time out of their busy schedules to prepare Freezer meals for her and her family, and neighbors who are taking the children during the day while travis is at work.
Jaycee our 11 yr.old grandaughter stayed at Melindas house last evening so she could be with her all day today and watch the kids. She is and has been such a blessing to Melindas life and very helpful to her. She is much older and wiser for her years than she looks. She is amazing with the kids. I am sure she has watched her mother give so much love to those she comes in contact with....it is a pay forward kind of thing!
Angelee and I work and are doing what we can to help when we can be there. I am thankful for those neighbors, and friends who are also helping in ways which we can not.
We truly have angels among us.
