Therefore an early diagnosis, maybe her passing made that diffference for me. We all learn from our parents and sometimes we get real good stuff from them. They help us be who we are even if they pass too soon. And yes we marry and get to share our selves with someone who can piss us off with some real petty stuff, but you know thats life we all live it and experience it. After 32 years of marriage I still get pissed about stuff, I had cancer and now Denny does. We still live each day and know we love each other even when times are hard. Don't dismiss those everyday happenings, they are part of a full life, not unimportant, but necessary. My mom said if you don't disagree one of you is a milk toast. You are strong, Scott is too, help each other through this. Cancer sucks, we all know it, treatment sucks too, but having you here next year and the next year after that and so on and on, is worth all of it. You keep up the fight and we'll keep up the prayers and good thoughts.Madonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08582941256519912873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863435713861042468.post-76352077111674133822010-10-30T11:04:52.608-07:002010-10-30T11:04:52.608-07:00Dori~

Therapy rooms are filled with people dealing with something they didn't expect that life threw at them. You just became an expert in that field.<br />--Amy DoeringUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07971414762869689656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863435713861042468.post-67156817238831422612010-10-29T20:11:40.061-07:002010-10-29T20:11:40.061-07:00I think you're pretty damn amazing.
