Thank you!

Well today is the big day. In just a few hours we'll be heading over to the hospital in the first step to kicking cancer's @ss!! =)

Anyway, before I go, I just want to thank you all so very much. All the lovely comments, prayers, thoughts, stories shared, hugs - all of it. I am holding it all in my heart and I know it will help me get through everything I need to get through!!

I am hoping that someone (my husband or my mom) will be able to get on in the next 24 hours to leave some sort of update for everyone.

For now, xoxoxo to all of you. And thank you ever so much!

  4. I'm visiting from Kim @ Hormone Colored Days and wanted to add my good wishes and healthy vibes. It seems odd that the strength of strangers can help us heal from afar, but I know it helped my preemie twins. I hope it helps you, too.

  19. Hi Brandie! I'm a 2+ year breast cancer survivor and mom to 4. Kelcey sent me. I'm also inventor of Pink Pockets which are designed to hold those gawdawful drains. I had 4 for 10 days after my bilateral mastectomy and they really stink. Can I send you some? If so, just send me an email at Diane@pink-pockets.com and I'll hook you up. Prayers to you and your family. Best wishes. I've been there.

  27. Hi Brandie -

    I'm here via Steph at Adv. in Babywearing. Just wanted to send you a huge hug and let you know that one of my dearest friends, (Meagan) was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer back in September of 2009. On April 1, 2010, she finished treatment and is now cancer free! She's doing beautifully - happy, healthy, and hilarious. We walked with her in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day in Chicago last August and we'll all be doing it again this year. Life goes on, and it goes on so beautifully! This was Meagan's second battle with cancer - she'd had lymphoma as a teenager. I just wanted to share that info with you: SHE KICKED CANCER'S BEHIND (x 2!), AND YOU WILL TOO. Stay strong, and know many people have you in their prayers. xo
