too close to home!
Something came to my attention, that i have never had to deal with personally. Something that i always heard others have or taken care of but, i thought i have finally gone through enough, then it hits. My good friend jean, has come down with breast cancer, She has to have both of them removed on friday, It has currently also gone to her lymph nodes. so the doctors don't think it is very good, and that she possibly couldn't be looking at a terminal cancer situation. all with in a week, to find out,get tests, surgery, recover, then possibly not make it! I don't think she has realized it or accepted and i know i haven't either. it is just so much. since she doesn't really have anyone, i am going to go with her on friday, and she will be in mt. vernon at their cancer center, so i will only be 10 minutes away. hopefully she can get a hole of jerei soon, so maybe he can come up and support her and keep me company. i just don't think i am ready to loose her, i have come to know her as a friend, mother, and even though we haven't really been that close in the last couple of years, i just don't know if i can handle it. i know i can but, i don't want to. this record of loosing someone close every 2 years, well, it might keep on track. i doh't like it, but they happen, it's like you can feel it, gosh that's horrible, i couldn't imagine, not having her to talk to ,yea know, and not even close to imagine how she must feel, she has alreay gone through so much in her life, she deserves, to have it good, once ya know and be relaxed. i just hope the tests come out better than she thinks and it will all be over soon and she can get on with her life. i love her like a mom and feel like being selfish, ya know. okay i will keep you updated and maybe i should just call jerei myself and have him call her!

I really hope everything goes will with her surgery and they can take care of the rest with chemo, or even better if it won't even come to that. Cancer just sucks plain and simple, and its so sneaky, you can not even know its there until its really bad. That seems to be the way it goes a lot, people who find out early enough to prevent it from spreading are very lucky. I hope you or her call jerei and let him know soon, because it sounds like they were close and i'm sure she could use the extra support.
She seems like a strong person, and support and love surrounding her is important right now, even someone to just offer a hug or a positive word. I'll wish the best. You are awesome for being there, it shows where your heart is, really. On a different note, I honestly did not know how to spell jerei's name...I always thought it was jeri....oh well...to me he is couch spoon...and nothing more...
So how did everything go friday?
