I need your help again....

Hi...well, what do I say? I wanted to give you and Bonnie some words of inspiration but how do you inspire someone who only has 60 days? I'm sorry. Is that it? NO. I'd like to tell you something here that is has nothing to do with prayer or G-d or...well, anything religious. I'm Jewish but I'm not really into religion. I choose instead to explore the spirituality within myself - thus far unsuccessful. BUT - and this is a big BUT - I have heart. What I see here and pray (if you'd care to call it that) is for Bonnie to tense up...clench her fists, open her eyes and say, "EFFF YOU! There is NOTHING that will keep me from beating the crap out of you (you being cancer)." I know it sounds stupid...BUT - my uncle Skip had lung cancer - really. And we spoke to him and kept (sometimes brutally) talking at him - yes AT him because he wouldn't respond - saying that you are strong...you've been strong for our family for 40 some years - maybe it's time you were strong for yourself... Well, he beat it. He is now living clean and smoke free...he just celebrated his 86th birthday and they said he wouldn't live to 72! I don't know if this is helpful - you know me...I'm a comedian. But I share everything in my life here when it comes up - I have nothing to hide. Is my uncle's story unusual? Maybe. I don't know - but it's a success story that I'm sure is not exclusive to our family - if he can do it, so may someone else. I wish Bonnie all the best and hope she can find the strength to beat the crap out of what ails her... L'chaim, Bonnie...L'chaim.

Wow..That is sad. Don't worry Katlday2 you have my support on this..I'll pray for her though I cannot guarantee that I will always because I'm kind of a busy man but I'll try. Why not spend a lot of time with her this week or this coming weekend? that will be really nice! Go and have fun with her as if she doesn't have lung cancer! Life is too short to be gloomy about those kind of things and you should make her realize that. Make her forget she doesn't have lung cancer! God Bless and Good luck! *HUG*

Sweetie I am so sorry to read this and of course I will keep her in my thoughts that is so sad Big Hugs

Hi PPP...I am so very sorry to hear about Bonnie..I have included her in my prayers...I will also be thinking positive thoughts and happy thoughts of you and her being friends...Big Hugs

Hey, i can't personally pray for her, but she will be in my thoughts for you. I understand what you're saying about it slamming into your heart and brain, i've often had that feeling when something terrible is going, or has happened to my close friends also. stay strong for her, and know that alough it's never nice to have cancer she has lived a long and full life, something that not everybody has the chance and good fortune to do.

wow that is sad. I wish I had the most positive words in the world to lift you up. I can only imagine how much this hurts you and everybody else around her. Just try and keep up the faith that whatever happens, it will be all for the best. and who knows, miracles do happen, right? and it wouldnt hurt to pray for that. I'll include you in my prayers. take care.

Awwww... I'm so sorry that this has happened to such a treasured friend of yours. Count me in... I don't pray, but I'm sending Blessings of Love and Light, together with healing energies. I know it's a bit late to cure her, but spiritual healing is the next best thing. Brightest Blessings, my friend. xx

Hi Carryl. I am so sorry that your friend is so sick with cancer. I want to pray for her.

Hi Carryl, I'm so very sorry to hear about Bonnie. There's just too much cancer around, and sadly it appears to be on the rise. I've said a prayer for her, and her family, and will continue to keep her in my thoughts and prayers. How are you doing these days? Take care. Hugs

Aww Sweetheart My heart goes out to you and your friend.. I will most certainly say prayers for her and for you my friend...The ones left behind sometimes need the prays more then the departed. I'm sending a huge hug to you...so when you feel the warmth around you it's just me xoxoxoxoxo

I'm so sorry to hear about your good friend Bonnie and yes, of course I'll send prayful thoughts her way. (((hugs))))

As always Kat, you've got positive thoughts and well wishes from me. Hopefully the best outcome will happen. Be sure to spend time with your friend so she won't be alone in this.

That's so sad. I'm really sorry about your friend. It's certainly not easy to get this type of news. It's not easy to hear that your friend, or someone you know, only has a few months to leave. My heart goes out to your friend, her family, and all of her friends.

I read this and wanted to just give you and your friend a virtual hug. God Bless

I feel sorry about your friend and her having lung cancer. I have prayed for her that Lord will either heal her, or if the end is near, that she go peacefully and will not suffer and she will be with HIM in paradise.

Carryl, I sure will pray for your friend and I'm so sorry you're going through this. I'm also going through a similar thing with a close friend who has recently been diagnosed with cancer that is in her stomach and may be in her liver and pancreas. She's having surgery on Wednesday and the doctor said if it's in her liver they're going to just close her up and treat her with chemotherapy and radiation. Earlier she'd been told if it was in her pancreas the prognosis wasn't good at all, she could have only a few months also. She's only 52 and has a 17 year old daughter who is a total mess, as is her husband. I know exactly what you mean about going about everyday activities and having it slam into you, I'm having the same thing happen. It seems like everything I think, see or hear reminds me of Cindy somehow or of what she's going through. To have someone one day be full of life and fun and plans for the future and the next be told there may be no future is just almost beyond comprehension. Please, let's pray for each others' friends. Thanks, Hon, and hugs! Annie

Bonnie is in my thoughts and prayers.

I will say a prayer for Bonnie, the Lord knows whats best for us, and he'll do what he needs to do, whatever the outcome, he will give you and her family the strength to deal with whatever happens, and he'll give Bonnie the strength to go through whatever she needs to. I believe he still performs miracles, I heard one yesterday at my church, a young man and his wife were asking for prayers for his healing of cancer, and they announced yesterday that his body is cancer free. Have a good day..

i will definately keep her in my thoughts. you, as well. just prepare yourself because people don't generally live too long after that kind of diagnosis. plus factor in her age. of course you don't want her to suffer. try to be thankful for what she has meant to your life, tell her what she has meant to you. remember and believe that she is going to a better place where pain will no longer be a part of her life. i know it is hard. it is part of life, though isn't it?

I will pray for your good friend. Just act like she never had cancer before. That is the best thing you can do. If she wants to talk about her lung cancer, then do not ignore her. Talk with her about it. If she starts to talk about depressing things, tell her that everything will be fine again. If she will not listen to that, then keep her away from depressing subjects by turning to things that you both like to do. Keep hope and prayer. Those two things always bring a miracle.
