I always say I'm only 60 from the neck down and have the body to prove it...<br /><br />This post was a great 'vacation' for me - living with cancer is often so all-consuming that I often fail to remember how I got here, who helped me and all the love. So yes.. the whole process of reflecting and writing was a gift to myself.<br /><br />Take care my friend - xoxoMarlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09718331471747194520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492498137515589849.post-62237866871689156472012-03-01T09:38:04.877-08:002012-03-01T09:38:04.877-08:00Sweet Mel - I have no doubt your dad was happy for...Sweet Mel - I have no doubt your dad was happy for those short 5 weeks to say and express what he probably thought he more time to do.

Marlene, I ...Belated happy birthday wishes to you!<br /><br />Marlene, I identify with so much of what you wrote in this post. I think that it is a nice "vacation" to take a look back at our lives and to acknowledge the many wonderful things that happened along the way, how events altered the course of our journey, but most of all, the remember all of the people we have loved and who loved us back. That is a wonderful gift to yourself. xoxoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492498137515589849.post-61815986579713537002012-02-25T22:35:39.759-08:002012-02-25T22:35:39.759-08:00What a beautiful statement: for as long as I have...What a beautiful statement: for as long as I have the mental and physical capacity to do, I will do my best to participate in the life I have and the life I know which is so different than the life I had.<br /><br />My dad lived with Cancer only 5 weeks and he was happy to be given the gift to say goodbye.<br /><br />We do not know when our day will come but realizing that we are alive, only a few get to live that.<br /><br />Love<br /><br />MelanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492498137515589849.post-29180821740287485652012-02-25T07:49:43.784-08:002012-02-25T07:49:43.784-08:00I Remember, is a truly a "blog gift" to ...I Remember, is a truly a "blog gift" to yourself and to all your loved ones,family and friends!! Thank you.<br />I too remember.... as I have been walking beside you on life's path for 46 years as "best friends". Our very different experiences and choices in life have never once negatively influenced or changed the special love, respect,understanding,true caring we feel for one another.<br />Humor, wine, music, food and even "remembering" together has been our lifeline over the years.

We did not expect nor want her travel to end soon...neither did she. I knew mom did the best to make her last months worthwhile....the best that she could muster. Be strong and always be positive.
