Jeff,
You and your wife are in my prayers. My own father battles stage 4 Lung Cancer that is also in his brain and lungs. He copes by refusing to allow negative thoughts. Of any kind. So many things that were once important to him, are trivial and silly now that he is faced with his second bout with cancer. Many things that would have once resulted in a furious reaction, now make him laugh at the absurdity of it all. In facing death, he has found peace, and LIFE. My dad may be dying, be he isn’t going down with out a fight. The sword he wields is love, and its sheathe is gratitude.
When you are in the midst of one of those not so good days, know this, love is God. God is love. Focus on love and everything else is easier to bear.
You and your family are in my prayers, and I offer my profound gratitude to God for his healing of your malady.
God has blessed you Jeff, and he will continue to do so. Nothing can take love from you. Nothing can take God from you. You are an inspiration to a great many more people than you can imagine. All of us are deeply grateful to you, for you, and to God for giving you to us.
Walk and breathe with love.
Danae
