I am sorry but I thought this was funny. So I had to post. If I had breast cancer I would so be wearing one. I also like Save the Tatas. I have a sick sense of humor. I know. Ok I was speaking to a friend of mine when I was first diagnosed. He told me that his wife passed away from Ovarian cancer that spread into her breasts and lungs. As soon as I told him that I was sorry he said "what for". He proceeded to tell me that his wife fought Cancer for 5 years. That the best advice he could give me was to keep laughing and keep fighting. He said what he remembers most about his wife was her laughter her willingness to fight and her faith in God. Due to this he is not sad. It reminded me the importance of laughter so I laugh. I laugh at how my assistant says that "I am a like a cockroach so I will not die" Then I remember why not be joyful. I have all more of the reason to be joyful. Why you ask, because the Lord is with us more when we are going through difficulties than when not. It is like the story of the footprints says "The Lord replied the times when you have see only one set of footprints is when I carried you". How can I not be joyful! Truly I hope only to see on set of footprints.
