Ha ha, That's great! That definitely works with the unique/funny sign theme. Yep, if you fall off a cliff the outcome is unlikely to be good. Too funny.
Hi, Becky, I just came by to say hi today to you. I know this is a really stressful time. I'm on the melanoma board and have posted to you on there before. Just wanted to tell you to hang in there. I wish we weren't separated by an entire continent (I'm in CA). I'd invite you over for a get together. Sometimes having cancer can be so isolating. I think your email is on the board somewhere? If you don't mind, I'll send you an email sometime.
"The spiritual substance from which comes all visible wealth is never depleted. It is right with you all the time and responds to your faith in it and your demands on it." ~ Charles Fallmore (1854-1948)
"Give money to get money" ~ giving is a powerful action to bring more money into your life..., giving from a heart that is overflowing feels so good. Giving from a full heart is one of the most joyous things you can do, and the law of attraction will grab hold of that signal and flood even more into your life." ~ Rhonda Byrne, The Secret
Making Dreams a Reality ~ making terminal cancer patients dreams come true
"Bucketlist" ~ I had never heard this word or term before until recently. I'm not going to become overburdened or upset about the implications. I watched the most recent blockbuster movie with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson entitled: BUCKETLIST. It was an undoubtabley sad, yet; true to life story of the obstacles, trials, and emotional tribulations a Cancer Patient faces. We are all too aware... that death is inevitable; but, coming to "grips" with knowing the "reality" ~ that the end is ever-so-near... is extremely difficult. I was sent a video about a man who had been diagnosed at the terminal stage of his cancer, who had decided to fullfill his "childhood dreams." I'd imagine that this is relatively close to the idea and concept of a "bucketlist." It was very uplifting and inspirational. It helped give hope. With that in mind, I decided to start my very own "Living Life" quest. I have started to actually begin to make my bucketlist and live my childhood dreams. Many terminal cancer patients have asked me and themselves: "what do I do" ; "what do I do now" ~ "that I only have" ... a little bit of time to live? Many usually tell me, what they want to do ~ So, when I reply ~ I generally tell them: do it! For some odd reason, we are resisisant and reluctant ~ to make ourselves, with the onset of our finality ~ happy. I simply say: do what YOU love to do. Do what YOU want to do. Do what makes YOU happiest. I am well aware, that many of us have dreams that can be very costly ~ I am also aware, that because of the financial exhaustion that cancer has burdened many of us with... the funds simply aren't availible ~ for the attainment of our happiness. Another part of my personal Bucketlist ~ is to help make this happen. Thanks to Dr. Randy Pausch's message: "live your childhood dreams"... and the help of many other insirational figures, I am setting out ~ to "just do it" ~ SO ~ if you are a cancer patient ~ in need. Tell me your story ~ and I will post it. AND ~ if you are someone who is willing to help ~ and financially fund someone's last wishes and childhood dream; Tell me your story ~ and I will post it. Together, with The Power of: YOU ~ we can make a difference, one dream at a time!
Hello! My name is Becky! (and that's my daughter Jennifer in the photo with me)
Welcome! This is my rambling blogsite. A place where I come, to visit, play, laugh, learn, vent, discuss, read, and simply let go..
I named it The Power of: YOU ~ because, ultimately; I do believe that YOU have the power and ability to help someone heal. (yes, active listening and reading counts!!! lol)
I am a cancer patient; and survivor ~ by all terms. I was dx in March 2006 with Malignant Metastatic Melanoma (now, try to say that three times fast!) ~stage III. In October of 2008 I went to stage IV.
It's been a wild ride. So hang on tight!!!
begins with a beautiful smile :) Take control of YOURSELF! and find true comfort and peace.
