Pink Sister Club

As I began to write on this blog I am not sure what direction I want to go.  My journey is almost done. I have learned so much, and grew in a lot of ways I never thought possible. 

I want to leave this for my Daughter and Granddaughters to one day read and make sure that Breast Cancer or any kind of Cancer doesn't touch there life the way it touched mine. 

My best friend Mary, who helped me so much during this journey told me it was a healing blog if just for me to be able to move on and and enjoy my life.  So here's to you girl for pushing me to write about this "Season in my Life".  

No one wakes up one day and wants to become a Pink Sister.  Its not a group that we choose to be in,  its a group that we are in. There is a sisterhood there and only until you are one of us will you totally understand.  Us Pink Sisters just get each other,  and send hugs a million times a day to other Pink Sisters hurting from so many issues it leaves us with.

Someone once told me they hated Pink.  They hated all the things associated with it.  Really,  you are saying this to a Pink Sister.  Someone that has walked down this road and its lonely at times.  It will cause financial ruins, and leave you shaking your head many days or crying out to God begging to die.

It leaves us broken, and wondering why me?  Or with depression so bad you can't get out of bed for weeks.  Our bodies will never be the same. 

The Chemo alone is enough to kill you, and if that don't the Cancer left untreated will kill. I remember my own mother getting so mad at me for deciding to take the chemo.  She went as far as not speaking for awhile.

I think someone finally sit her down and explained to her, yes Lisa can not take the Chemo.  If she does decide to do it,  it will buy her time and possibly save her life.  Yes, God can heal and we are a family of God fearing people.  We believe in healing totally.  It doesn't mean her faith is weak, or she just decided to do it because she wanted to check it out.  

My Mother is in her mid 70's and has never been sick a day in her life,  so go figure she couldn't understand or comprehend.  Thankfully she finally came around after I started treatment and needed her many days to bring me something to help with my sickness.

So if you want to read what its like to walk the lonely road,  and become a Pink Sister then keep reading.  I am not gonna sugar coat it, I am going to tell you the way it is.  Its not pretty some days,  but I managed to stand most days and cry when no, one was looking.  

I also believe that an angel came and sit beside me before I went in the day to have my Double Mastectomy.  You will have to wait and read about it,  sometime later in my blog.  I have never had such peace like that day.

I also know I was being prayed for so much that I never did get really upset or nervous like most people.  There is power in prayer.  

Thanks for stopping by remember comments are always welcome.
