....I do feel blessed even with my diagnosis of colon cancer in November of last year. With His grace and mercy, along with prayers from friends and family (especially my hubby and my animals) I feel strong! I always appreciate prayer....it is stage 4, metastases to my liver (two surgeries already and on chemo through my newly installed port). Other than some side effects, I'm grateful!!!!
