Day 23

Yesyerday was a so-so day. Nausea returned and so I spent a lot of time in bed. Kyle was here all day. We took a few walks, but no treadmill. Son, Kyle and Erika brought Kade up in the evening. It was so good to see him. I can't wait to get out of here. It seems I'm getting claustrophobic in my room. This week is dragging for me. I wish they could do the bone marrow biopsy earlier, but I know they can't. SO, I will keep fighting. I will write later today if I can.

    Love you mom! Sorry that I haven't written here in a while although I do talk to you a couple times a day. Getting ready today for Vegas. I hate to leave to somewhere like that when you have to be where you are, but maybe I will be taking you luck with me since you always seem to come out ahead. Just like this fight! I know that you will end up with the jackpot you always do!!!! I am driving Alli to Sand Town tonight and KD is going to bring her to Cleveland for the week. Dad is picking Alayna up on Friday from school and Alexa is going to have a fun weekend camping with John and Lynn. Thursday Mike has to work a little bit so I am going to have a day of solitude and I am sure lots of thoughts of you. I will be thinking of you and you can call me anytime. I love you and I will see you Sunday. I am going to beable to read your blogs as I will be taking my laptop of coarse. Take care and get well so we can have a good summer. Remember right now you don't have to worry about ANYTHING else but getting better. Don't worry about me because you know that I am going to be fine. Don't worry about the Wedding because what will be will be. We all love you!

    Cindy Lou,
    I'm sorty I haven't written for a while but Jerry and I have been gone and I didn't have your blog address with me, it's on my favorites at home so I called Dottie and she gave it to me. I was so encouraged to read all the good things and more encouraged knowing that once again you have the greatest additude of anyone I know. You never cease to amaze me! I want you to know that not one day goes by that you aren't in my thoughts and prayers. I know that God can't ignore all the prayers that are going out for you! He's probably thinking for the love of Pete this woman is loved and adored by so many I have to heal her body and give her back to all who love her! You take care and think nothing but positive thoughs You are a role model for us all! Take care. Thinking of you..Shannon

    Hi Cindy
    Today at Mass right during ELEVATION the lights began to flicker----not a drastic flicker to make them go out completely but just a GENTLE angelic like soft flicker--like maybe an angel floating around up there passing by the lights. That is the best way I can describe it. It was very WEIRD. HOpe it is a sign that an ANGEL is keeping an eye on you and keeping that ANGELIC flicker of hope for a speedy recovery SOON. WIN THIS BATTLE.

    Mrs. Roth,
    I emailed Kyle (little Kyle, your son) today to tell him that Jeff and I are thinking of you and your family...and he told me about your blog. Just wanted to let you know that while we were growing up and in school with Kyle, you were always one of the nicest, sweetest moms, always had a smile on your face, and always treated us with kindness. We felt awful when we heard what you have been going through. Please know that we are thinking of you and praying for you. Kristy (Lill) and Jeff Smith

    Cindy,

    Believe in yourself, your strength, your courage and your plan (beat those cells) and you will WIN!! No one can doubt the power within, especially when we think of you. I think in your blog you sound tough and strong. In no time you will be out of that room and sitting on the beach watching your handsome son and his beautiful bride exhange thier vows and pledge thier love to each other. It will be beautiful, wonderful and joyus day to celebrate with your family. Keep thinking positive. You are in our thoughts and prayers constantly. Love you outlaw,

    Shelly

    HI! It was so GREAT talking with you this morning. I had quite a shock, to say the least. LOL Cindy, I don't pretend to know what you're going through, but I do know it's human nature to get down and depressed, and if anyone deserves to, it's you. But, you can't. You have come further than most people could have and you're almost to the finish line. Don't let down, fight harder and get madder. It's YES I CAN, even more now, than it was before. It's about concentrating, focusing and in believing that this will soon be over. Recite the Jabez prayer (a lot) and zero in on the box and circle of love. You ARE going to win this, my friend!

    Cindy,
    Sorry I haven't been on in a little while, but we had Brenna's graduation (yes! she made it!)and Adam's is coming up. I have been thinking of you though and Penny has kept me informed of what's up. I am leaving for NY tomorrow to see my dad, but you are in my thoughts and sending positive energy your way..

    Sorry to hear about your struggles but know you have a world or people full of support and love. Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you and sending lots of strength. If there's anything you or the family need let us know. Olivia Thompson & Family.

    Hi Cindy,
    Hope seeing the sunshine helped brighten your day.The best thing about this time of the year is seeing and smelling the flowers.
    We all like to have the greenest grace on the block .[we just hate having to mow it every 3 days.]
    The bad cells will be gone from the unity of all our prayers.[Guess I better give the chemo and Doctors some credit]Take care and expect a miracle.
    Thinking of you daily.

    good morning, we had a nice visit last night. We all can't wait to get you out of there, none more than you. We all will give a extra prayer this week so the test will come back clean. Get the rest that you need and stay strong I know it's easy for me to say but you've done a great job so far. You're almost there. Love you
    Doug and pat
