Shoes
I am wearing a pair of shoes. They are ugly shoes. Uncomfortable shoes. I hate my shoes. Each day I wear them, and each day I wish I had another pair. Some days my shoes hurt so bad that I do not think I can take another step. Yet, I continue to wear them.I get funny looks wearing these shoes. I can tell in others eyes that they are glad they are my shoes and not theirs. They never talk about my shoes.To learn how awful my shoes are might make them uncomfortable. To truly understand these shoes you must walk in them. But, once you put them on, you can never take them off.I now realize that I am not the only one who wears these shoes. There are many pairs in this world. Some women ache daily as they try and walk in them. Some have learned how to walk in them so they don't hurt quite as much. Some have worn the shoes so long that days will go by before they think about how much they hurt.No woman deserves to wear these shoes. Yet, because of these shoes I am a stronger woman. These shoes have given me the strength to face anything. They have made me who I am.I am a woman who has a child with cancer. I will forever walk in these shoes.- Author unknown

Lizzie is really struggling this week with her hunger levels, energy levels and has been waking up in the middle of the night because of hunger. Her brain is just not telling her body correct things and she never has the feeling of being full. We would ask again for your prayers in her behalf - she is having a really hard week. Thank you!

Love you tons and bucketfulls.
I'm so sorry! The aftermath of the BT and surgery suck just as much as the cancer itself. It is true!
