Now

Hello All…

I haven’t posted in awhile…our lives have changed so much…we are counting the days and hours now…I just wanted you all to know that I am thinking of you, but I have gone into a cocoon, and I am so busy trying to hold it together.
Sending my best to you all. Please pray for us, as I do for all of you.

Caregiver for my Wonderful Husband Angelo, who has Metastatic Bladder Cancer.

Life isn’t about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain.

Karen,

You and your family are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. I had a feeling something was going on because you have not been as present on the site. Please know that we are all pulling for you and Angelo….if you need to talk, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Love,

Melissa

Karen,
Please know that you and your entire family are in the thoughts, prayers and hearts of so many right now. You have been such an inspiration and encourager to so many, I hope you will now find that encouragement returned ten-fold. Praying for God’s grace and love to wrap you all in His tender care.

My dear Karen,

Hang in there. There’s not a whole lot more you can do. Say what you need to say to him, but be brief for his sake.

It will help you later.

Your friend,
Rosemary

You and Angelo are always in my thoughts.I dont really know what to say other than wishing you lots of strength and sending lots of hugs and that if you need to talk I check on here frequently.
I have so much admiration for how you carers cope and you have been a great support to me over the last months

Karen, I pray for you to be able to hold it together. I’m sure I can only imagine the strain you are under. We had visitors for a week and I was totally frazzled by today. More visitors to come. It takes some time to collect thoughts to be able to post. We are here for you. Please phone if you need to. Julie
