We are BACK!!!! Oh San Diego, you are Magical!
I got back Thursday, June 30th around 3-ish from San Diego and I am EXHAUSTED beyond belief. Lots to blog....good and bad. I promise I will start tomorrow and try to get it all published by tomorrow night. Thank goodness I have a sister that did a bunch of Instagram and Facebook posts so you were not in the complete dark. But, overall I am a blessed girl with amazing family, friends, and no joke total strangers that worked so hard to make this a magical experience for this sad and more and more anxious cancer patient. Let's just say that Ativan (anti-anxiety med) has become my friend. No matter what your belief system is. Dying is scary. I am scared. I really, truly am.
No matter what your beliefs are, death is scary. Anything that we haven't experienced before is scary and death is a biggy. I have sleep apnea and asthma and struggle a lot at night. My fear is dying alone, since I live alone. I've had breathing problems that have been so severe that I can't even talk and finding/getting help can be a challenge.
ReplyDeleteI think God sent me my cat to help me. At night when I'm so tired and can't wake myself up to breathe, my cat is always there patting my face or taking whatever means he has to get me to wake up and breathe right.
Most of us don't know when we will die and take life for granted. We don't take the time to make special memories, let others know how special they are, let people our wishes for our funeral or even tell our family how much we love them. You are so blessed with being able to do all these things.
You are leaving your kids, family and friends with a gift. The gift of strength. You show us all daily how love and a belief in God gives you strength to get through all the hard times.
No matter when your time comes, God is always there. Peace out awesome Gina!
