CANCER SUCKS!!!!


Psalm 55:17 NIV
Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice.

Three years ago today I lost my mother to cancer.  It was a very sad day for me.  Relief that she was no longer in pain, but sadness that I no longer had her to talk to.  I remember standing out the back door talking to Jeff when they came and told us.  It has been a little over six years that we lost Bryan’s dad to cancer.  Again, cancer sucks!  I remember the pain I felt when he passed away as well.  Steven has lost two important people from his life due to it.  He still talks about Grandpapa and Granny quite a bit.  I don’t know that he will ever 100% understand why he no longer sees them.  Of course today has the happy side too.  My nephew Cory turns 21 today!  (Really, 21?)  It seems like yesterday Karen and I loaded into my little Ford with Seth and went to Arkansas to visit Jeff and Karen so we could see Cory not long after he was born.  It was a quick trip, but I loved being able to hold little Cory!  There are ups and downs almost every day.  Just look for them and if you can’t find the ups, God will hold you through it until you do.

 

God Bless,
Sherri
 
This was taken at my mom's house.  Steven had a hard time going there after mom passed.
