About Me
- Faith G
- I began blogging when I was diagnosed in Feb. 2008 with invasive breast cancer and needed surgery and chemotherapy; the blog was then a means to keep in touch with friends and family without running my cell phone bill up every billing cycle. Despite what I may feel at the dark, lonely 2 am hour, breast cancer is not who I am (although it's pretty much what I'll be doing for the next few months). I am a devout Catholic (a revert to the faith). So those are some of the big things. Little things...Um, ok... left handed, bookworm, introvert (melancholic- phlegmatic for you RC types, INFJ for the Meyers Briggs types) special ed teacher, loves pickles (got them for Christmas a few years ago and can make a darned good Polish Pickle soup), love "Lost", don't like sushi, have no interest in jumping out of airplanes but hang gliders might be peaceful, get very carsick, love animals, often dream about sharks and Disneyland (but never in the same dream); drive a non- descript, dirty white car with a pro life bumper sticker on it, no allergies except to penicillin, drug of choice is Vicks NyQuil, like Peets hot chocolate and Starbucks iced tea, coffee is gross and so is beer.

Though I had been following their webpage fairly regularly, your post in my blog reader was the first I saw of it. Soon after I saw many mutual college friends who had posted notes and status updates in Facebook indicating their sadness and heaviness of heart, which echoes my sentiments. Though it had been probably 10 years since I had seen her, she was always in our prayers through this struggle.
Thankfully, her struggle is no more. She is in the arms of Jesus and no longer in any pain. But a sweet little boy and a very loving husband are the beginning of many people who will have a gaping hole in their earthly lives.
You have shared her story to many people who would otherwise not have known. This undoubtedly helped to comfort her and ease her suffering in her journey.
We'll continue to keep in our prayers all those she's left behind.
