How dare me be so selfish…I must say Thank God for friends, they build you up, they let you know it’s okay to complain and be angry.
We have heard from so many of you, I thought I would share.
In our neighborhood, Rod and I have a few close friends. However, life is so busy and really we keep to ourselves so we don’t talk to much but maybe a wave. But we started hearing from our neighbors and they were stopping by to check on us…It was heart wrenching. I was so happy they cared, yet crying so hard. Why do we have to have the sad story…I like positive things. I don’t like sad or negative things. It was difficult to see them, I made Rod talk with them. I couldn’t keep it together. I stayed in the house each time.
A cute note, we have a student in the Tiny Spirits, who I guess is having a hard time. She wanted to help, this was her idea, she did it herself, she went to each of her neighbors and raised $147 dollars. We learned about that kind gesture last night on our drive here. This morning when we were in the line for registration, we could hear them asking patients private room? Insurance does not cover, it’s $70 a night. Crystal mentioned, mom I don’t need the private room, when they ask you…save your money. We got up to the desk and when they asked, “private room?” I said, “Yes, Private Room!” I looked at Crystal and said your Tiny Spirit bought you two nights:) Crystal smiled so big.
Getting prepped for surgery, we pretty much have learned that she is the healthiest cancer patient there is. She has lots of support here with her, besides her dad, sisters, grandmas, grandpas, uncle and aunt, she has all of you with her in Spirit. Thank You.
How long is surgery…not sure, they said a minimum of 4 hours and I know they have not even started as of 9:18am.
To Crystal’s dearest friends that are involved in her life. I have your photos, the stuff animals and will set them up in her room:) The video you made for her made her cry…she had a very hard time sleeping last night so that kept her busy. Thank you for taking the time to let her know how special she is to you.
