Friday Favorites #106

Friday Favorites #106 at Living Vintage

Blue.  If the shoe fits, share it.

(I am filling a bit blue because my baby sister, Melissa, started cancer treatments this week.   Please say a prayer for her would you?    Please?)

I am trying to find the humor, fellowship, and peace in everyday life despite what is happening with my family and the world.    I guess that means I haven’t given up hope.    And I hope you haven’t either, my friends.

      I know … right? I would LOVE to have that window pane. I’d hang it in my house in a heartbeat.

    I am so sorry to hear that you are going through this difficult time. I have traveled this road and I know how hard it is. When my older sister was diagnosed with lung cancer I made the decision to walk beside her during that time, I went to every appointment, treatment etc with her. She insisted she could go alone but I knew being there for her would be good for both of us. Especially as she started chemotherapy and radiation as the drugs often caused her to be forgetful so having an extra set of ears helped. We laughed, we cried, we made each appointment day a lunch or breakfast day, we did whatever she felt up for. Sadly my sister lost her battle but I am so grateful for each moment I got to spend with her and I like to think it helped to have me there. I am sending you much love and praying for both of you, you will need lots of strength and grace. Being a cheerleader for her will be the most rewarding thing you will ever do. Holding you in my prayers!

    Kim, I am blue just hearing of your sister’s having to deal with cancer and the treatment regime. I just read a feature in Real Simple on Kim Kovel, senior innovator for Nike who was dx’d in 2015. She created an activity book called, “Hello, My name is Cancer”. It’s gotten great response and may be something your sister might enjoy when nothing else seems to work. One of my sisters went through radiation but no chemo in 2015. I wouldn’t wish any of it on anybody. I’ll be keeping your sister in my thoughts and prayers. TGIF. I always look forward to your collages.

    Kim, I pray that all your sister’s medical staff and caregivers are guided by God and she is blessed with an easy time through it all. My mom had ovarian cancer…it’s not easy to watch them go through this. Take care. Hugs from texas, patty

    Sending positive energy your sister’s way. My sister died of lung cancer. She didn’t take care of herself, so she had no prognosis. Hopefully your sister was aware of what was going on with her body and the cancer was caught early. Best wishes to you both as you fight the monster that is cancer.
