Five years feels so momentous, and I love how Dr. P acknowledged it. Glad to know you're going to be taking a break. Praying that you will regain much-needed strength (both mentally and physically).

I remember falling in love with what a great dad your dad was and seeing the lake house and all the fun you had there. We've known each other through our beginning days of blogging and finding Gitz. Now, it's immensely meaningful to celebrate five years with you and all that means on so many levels.<br /><br />So grateful for Dr. P and the upcoming antibody study you get to be part of, and though I'm so sorry you were sick and have to take the antibiotics that cause you bad side effects, I'm glad you are carefully watched and loved and that you are recovering and that it lead to the conversation about stopping the Taxol. I long for that break with you. And I long for the break through even more.

My heart lurched, as it always does when I hear of anyone being diagnosed with any stage of BC. Then I heard that it was actually a Stage IV diagnosis. I remember sending you a note, in the care of your sweet Nolan. Even though we didn't know each other then, we were bonded in the sisterhood of BC. <br /><br />I cannot believe it has been 5 years! You have defied the odds, and have impacted the lives of hundreds, and probably thousands, with your peaceful, sweet, thoughtful, and impactful writing. I feel so blessed to know you, to have shared our hockey boys/lives, and look forward to many, many more memories together. Your amazing ability to keep going, when things are so hard to bear, is more than unbelievable. I am amazed by you and your incredible perspective that you share in such a beautiful way. I hope and pray you get a break from the effects of chemo, and can enjoy some better days! <br /><br />Love you, sweet friend!!! <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03818267577743110088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-36299378720490117902016-03-16T21:22:54.203-05:002016-03-16T21:22:54.203-05:00I'm so proud of you Vicky....five years?

My heart just aches to think of you having chemo each week and hearing how sick you were. I am grateful beyond words that you spoke up and told Dr. P what was on your heart...and he listened!! (oh that Dr. P is a bit of a hero to all of us who love you so. His kindness and caring have been so comforting to you, dear friend.) Love the picture of you with him. <br /><br />And feeling your Dad's presence so strongly and God's presence too. I'll be praying non-stop about that antibody study. And dear heart, thank you for being so honest and transparent about these challenges. You inspire me, inspire all of us, to live life to the fullest, every day, and to choose gratitude for all our days and years.<br /><br />Love you so, soul Sis. Always. To the moon and back!!
