People say that I sound great . . . but I must be putting up a great front, because I'm dying inside.   I know that I have all these friends and family around me - and I want everyone to know - I could use as much support as I can get.  I love all the hugs and words of encouragement I'm getting . . they help so much - Keep 'em coming - with all your help, I'll get through this . . . all in one piece.

I also know that somehow, the Lord will get us through this - hopefully he has some big plan in mind that I just don't understand right now.   I don't care how strong you are in your faith, this is the part that is so hard to remember - we are all in the Lord's hands, and we don't understand it , but he will help us through it.   I guess I just need to write that down and post it all over my house - 'cause it's really hard to remember when I'm driving down the road and the tears just start to fall.

Then I have Damon asking "Mommy, what's wrong?" . . . and I just have no idea what to say to that.   At least, not yet.

I keep telling myself - "I have cancer" . . . and it still hasn't really set in.  I don't think it has totally become real yet - but I can tell you for sure that on Tues and Wed, it will definitely "become real".

That's all I have for now, and probably that's all I will have until my surgery on Wednesday.  I'll post more if I have more.

Love you all!
Chris
