Happy Birthday To Our Angel Sharon

Happy Birthday to my beautiful sister Sharon

November 07, 1953 - May 11, 1994

We miss you more everyday. I never needed you like I do now.

I know you are with dad and that gives me so much peace.

Here is something that Sharon wrote.

 

 

                                          

 

 

                                            I Am With You

                                     Birds continue to sing

                 The sun unmasks its radiance each new day            

           My soul has been awakened to the breathtaking world I

                                              imagine

                                       And I am with you                                                 

                                  Waves yet rush to shore

                              Flowers bloom forever more

       Within these clouds I witness an electrifying panoramic view

                                      And best of all

                                    I am still with you

                           When gray skies cover the sun

                         And the moon seems not so bright

                      In the silent hours of your darkest night

                                       Just call for me

                                  And I will be with you

                  Earthy demise does not diminish friendships

                        For my life was no ordinary moment

                        Every day brought new dimensions

                            And you each played a part

                          Discover the Beauty in knowing

                      That soul-binding love never departs

                                 And know in your heart

                               That I am always with you

             

 

                (Written by Sharon L. Shank Copyright 1997)

                                   I love you Sharon

                                   Love your family

That is so beautiful, Trish..  it made me cry.  Your sister is the same age as I am now, born the same year.

I know you must miss her terribly, and wish she were there, but,  you know.. she is... even if you can't see her...

Hugs

Hi Trish,

I am glad that you were able to enjoy the weekend. It is supposed to be beautiful again today so maybe you can think about going outside again. I think it's great that you have so many stuffed animals. But, when you want to see REAL "Stuffed" animals, I can take you on a private barn tour anytime after 5:00 pm!

We decorated the animals for Halloween and our Donkey still has a blue head! We knew we were in trouble when we couldn't wash the hair spray off of our hands.

Please know you are always in my thoughts and prayers!

Have a super day!

Not Feeling So Well...

Hi everyone, this is Trish's sister Sue again.  Trish has not been feeling too well and on Friday we had to take her to the ER department.  She is so weak and was very close to having pneumonia.  She has been on antibiotics for 12 days now and they are concerned about why she is not getting better.  Needless to say, we are very worried.  She feels a little better today, but is on oxygen and just has absolutely no energy.  They have been giving her breathing treatments since yesterday, and some other medicines in her IV.  They are bringing in an infectious disease doctor to see if they can pinpoint what is going on.  She will be there until at least Monday.  She has her scans (right there) on Monday too.  We'll keep you posted - please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

My last Oncologist appointment for a while!

I went to the Oncologist last Wednesday and he reassured me that everything is fine! I am so happy. I have been so worried but he walked in the door and I said, “hi, it’s your two favorite people” (me and My mom) and he said your right! Then he said “congratulations!” Your MRI came back clean! I don’t have to go back and see him for 3 months. You don’t know how happy that makes me. I am so sick of that place. He said to go ahead and make the appointments to get my port out and he also thinks it is a good idea like my surgeon suggested that I get the colonoscopy at the same time. I have to call and make the appointment this week. Yay! I get to have my port out. Besides the boy haircut I have the port is one of the last remaining reminders that I HAD breast cancer. I like saying HAD! He also put me on some medicine for the neuropathy that I am having. (arms and feet going numb) He said it is nerve damage from the Taxotere. That was one of the chemo drugs I was on. I also have to take Cen...

My Sister Sharon, My Inspiration

I have something I want to share with everyone. Some of you know my sister Sharon died from breast cancer. What you don't know is that she was a great writer. I have read her thoughts before but now they have a whole new meaning to me. When I would read them I would always think about what she must have been going through at the time, and now I know. She was an inspiration to me and to everyone around her. Here is something that I came across that I can relate to in certain ways. I know I have some friends out there that have had mastectomies that will find this a great inspiration. It is called Self Love. Today I will make friends with the area of my body that has been through surgery. I will look at myself in the mirror and not think of myself as disfigured just because I look different. I will focus on the fact that once, where there used to be a mound of flesh, there is now a flatter more hollow surface that, when touched, puts me that much closer to my heart and soul.  I wi...
