Grateful for silver linings, one of which is how family and friends are gathering around us in prayer and with offers of support. Cancer is a lot of hard things. It is already proving to be a lot of connecting with loved ones and strengthening of relationships and that is so, so good.

Cancer is hard on kids
Our kids are bored. They are used to a mommy who takes them on adventures, takes them at least to the grocery store. We don't do that anymore. They come home from school and sit. They come home from school unattended even though I am here. We don't do adventures so much anymore. Their entire lifestyle has shifted away from as they knew it. We want that life back, all six of us. I wish I could just give them a jailbreak today, two of the four of them are not coping well. My heart hurts for them. They just want their mom back. They seem lost.

Yes, it is hard. Prayers for soft hearts. And understanding where it is impossible to understand. And for moments to be found where there is fun & joy. And for much peace, the kind only He can bring, and sustain. Love you all so much lots. Xox
