Inspire


  My cancer journey is in day 210, 6 months 27 days or 302,400 minutes.  During this journey I have been told I am an inspiration. I am humbled to think. Inspire 1. To exert a stimulating or beneficial effect upon (a person); animate or invigorate. What I want to share with you is who has inspired me on this journey and what I did or will do about it. Kim Hudson who called and told me she would be cleaning our pool until I was done with treatment. I will not ask a friend what I can do? I will just do what needs to be done.  My first chemo friend Ann, she inspire me with her running club, I then went back to hiking. I am inspired with those patients who are very sick and continue to fight. I am not sure what effect this will have on me. I hope I could be as courageous as they, their will alone is inspirational.

I aspire to be an inspiration. What I have been through so far has really just happened to me. I believe if you are a positive happy person in health, you can be one in sickness. So there was not much effort on my part.

 I had my last chemotherapy treatment today. I will let that poison work its magic. Then it is on to a healthy eating, juicing and a 70% raw foods and fish. I will start back to being an early morning gym rat. I quit that life several years ago after an injury. My mother used to say “If you drop your pack it is hard to pick it back up” Oh so true!

I thank you if you were one who said I was an inspiration. It is that, that will give me the will to do something  I think is worthy of your inspiration. What a lesson!, a few kind words you might say could make a huge difference in someone's life. Which then will have a ripple effect on everyone in their life. Thank you!
