Who was this Kate or was this person talking about me? Then I realised that I am definitely not the first Kate to have cancer and after perusing your blog, realised that not only do we share a name, nationality and diagnosis in common but we are also both pretty damn fabulous. I love your line about getting to a point where we can complain. Gosh do i want to be there. I am really glad our paths crossed. And I really wish you the very best in your treatment.

One day it is a beautiful landscape and the next a growling tiger. Thats the beauty of it I guess. I am hoping for a good week and a gently next treatment on thurs. My mom arrives tomorrow so I am so excited to have her with me for this cycle.

That would be a good sign wouldn't it?<br /><br />But here and now, I wish you the peace and continued wisdom to savour your time with family.<br /><br />~Kate, of Kate Has CancerJim's Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03158792309730805894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609734477228946286.post-37341690289646655072013-06-08T07:31:12.148+02:002013-06-08T07:31:12.148+02:00OBB!

You are so right, people complain about aging and getting older when all around them are folks who may never get that privilege.<br /><br />I love your line, "I want to be there to see everything come together in the end." Watching how life plays out for our loved ones is magical; it's like connecting all the pieces of a puzzle. Some of us have big pieces, so the piecing happens quickly; others have lots of smaller pieces that, when placed together, don't quite make up the whole picture. The main thing to remember is that *each* piece in our personal puzzle — no matter its size — is essential. And no matter how much time we have on this earth, our part of the puzzle is etched in a very permanent way. Our piece of the greater puzzle is essential to the big picture that plays out in the end. Sometimes we see it all come together on this earth; sometimes we watch it come together from above. But I believe we all get to see it unfold.<br /><br />Hope you continue to feel better and that the clouds clear long enough for you to keep working on that puzzle. You said it best: "Time with your loved ones, time to fulfill a dream, time to discover exactly who you are... In the end, nothing else really matters."
