This is your blog. These are your feelings and they ring so true. I have to admit, this beautiful poetry post may be my favorite. You stated what many others feel but are afraid to share. You and your family are and will remain in my thoughts and prayers.Karen Gromadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12106165924322678026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4454210556244278235.post-58512567915622187322014-05-23T02:09:09.884+03:002014-05-23T02:09:09.884+03:00I found your blog via LLL friend.

And I have to say those words ring true. He did not leave his family or his congregation. His presence is felt strongly and it's imprint will ALWAYS be there. I hope and pray the cure will be found soon for your cancer. I know they are making breakthroughs all the time and trying different experimental drugs. However, just addressing your other (hopefully unfound) fear, you will absolutely never leave those whose lives you have touched.

The thought of not being able to raise my own children has weighed very heavy on me; in some ways, enjoying time with them can intensify that fear. One of the ways, though, that I've been able to make some peace with it (though not entirely, never entirely) has been to take some control over choosing the people who will mother them after I am gone. It is not my place to choose a partner for my spouse, but it is my job as their mom to choose those women who I believe can and will mother them and to foster those relationships now. It's a gift that I can give my kids. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I send love and light.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13903927905618237029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4454210556244278235.post-38287437055174652062014-05-18T01:56:48.469+03:002014-05-18T01:56:48.469+03:00Brave soul, truth-teller - we hear you, and your w...Brave soul, truth-teller - we hear you, and your words are precious to us.<br />Keep dancing.Shev Simonnoreply@blogger.com
