spring

I think one of my reasons that tulips are my favorite flowers is because they are one of the first flowers to bloom after the cold winter.
My mom helped us plant 200 tulips?
Yep... they're blooming!!!! The daffolis already bloomed couple weeks ago.

cancer awareness

As some of you know, I donate 10% of my sales to preventcancer.org ... but it's not enough. I want to help more...

A lovely lady that we know from church has cervical cancer. We heard about this awhile ago. Her symptons have gotten worse throughout the time that we heard about it. The doctors can no longer treat it and that the treatment would only feed to the cancer now, because the cancer has spread to her organs... and a few days ago, she found out that the cancer has spread to where her bowel movements will not work... the doctors gives her 2 weeks left...

Two weeks.
Two weeks.
Only two. What would i do in my last two weeks of my life?
I was thinking that Steve & I would visit her during this really hard time, but I rather have her spend that time with her 3 and 5 year old sons, and her husband.

It frustrates me, and it really makes me ache for her. I just cannot imagine, and don't want to know and feel how hard it is for her to not be able to see her sons grow up, to be a teenager, meet their girlfriends, and watch them enter adulthood...

It really make me so sad and upset all at the same time.

Please, which ever religion that you go with, please pray for her... that a miracle will cure her.
