Happy Mother’s Day
April 30, 2010 | Author JulieElder
Mother
If I could give you diamonds
for each tear you cried for me.
if I could five you sapphires
for each truth you’ve helped me see.
If I could give you rubies
for the heartache that you’ve known
If I could give you pearls
for the wisdom that you’ve shown.
Then you’ll have a treasure, mother,
that would mount up to the skies
That would almost match
the sparkle in your kind and loving eyes.
But I have no pearls, no diamonds,
As I’m sure you’re well aware
So I’ll give you gifts more precious
My devotion, love and care.

Have you ever, ‘well of course you have’ had days that seem to never have a end. Your mind goes 90 and you really don’t know if you should turn left or right, or just sit still and try to get it all sorted out. But wonder if it can’t be sorted out!!! How to make sense of hearing your mother has a terminal Cancer. How does a person sort through this kind of information. Over the past year I have been experiencing strong feelings of needing to be close by my Mother. But yet my busy life, my own family, you see I have four daughter’s and 5 grandchildren, that I enjoy living close by them. But yet this feeling. And now this news. Cancer seems to find it’s way in to most families, and it comes right through the front door. No knocking, no signs of entry, it’s just there. It’s heart breaking. Just how much can one family endure at a time. I think the word for me today is Over Whelmed… And finding the need to just cry. Just let it all out. Just about 3 weeks ago, I was watching the Dr. Oz Show, when he was talking about Cancer. He seems to think that Cancer is found right inside of every grocery store, sitting right there on the shelf’s. He is a very smart and wise man, and I kinda think that he knows what he is talking about. Over the past year, I have become proactive in my life… Learning and taking better care of myself. I was introduced to the new NextFit Keychain Trainer, which helps me to exercise, and in doing this, I have started to learn more and more every day, different ways I can pour prevention into my body, heart and soul… If you read this,
Please say a small prayer for my Mother, and become more proactive in your own life, to fight off so many deadly disease’s that are out there. Exercise every day, and take the steps to improve your own life. Here’s counting on many prayer’s, showered with strength and courage, and smothered with FAITH…. And I will continue my Journey… Jules
Chemo
April 24, 2010 | Author JulieElder
Another week has come and gone, and my Mother has returned home once again. She spent this past week getting her body prepared for the chemo which will take place on the 26,27th, and 28th, with 21 days in between her treatments… I am so proud of her. I have been so worried about this past week. And now this part of it has been completed. I know that all the prayers that are being spoken in her behalf has given her Courage beyond belief. I am learning from this experience. I have always wondered how a person can even begin this type of journey. My heart is saddened, and so worried for her. I have learned a lot about chemo, and the affects that it will have on her body. They say that everyone reacts differently from it, but to read all of the information on it is a bit concerning, and over whelming.
My Mother through out her life, has experienced many reactions to so many drugs, that it has limited her to only take Tylenol for pain. Yes!! She recovered from her operation with only Tylenol… And due to a
lifetime of eliminating so many medications, she has also convinced herself that she shouldn’t even try anything natural. SO this is where my biggest concern and heart break begins. There are so many new clinics out there that has had promising results, and learning about the natural alternatives that can help support her body through this. She is determined to do this the medical Doctor version way, and this really does create a lot of anxiety for me. If there is a miracle to be known or seen for my family, I pray with all my heart that we will see a miracle through this Journey, and I pray that I can stand on her faith to join her in the trust she has developed with her new doctors over this past month.
This is where my Mother will receive her Chemo therapy at the Huntsman Cancer Institute Center. Huntsman Cancer Institute operates a hospital-based patient care center in association with the Health Sciences Center at the University of Utah.
May the Lord bless my family with Faith, Wisdom, Strength, Courage, and the ability to support my Mother’s choices through out this new Journey…
