After the first of the year...I am free most days...let me know best day of week works for you....Cindy I know how hard Christmas can be...I assume you have a grandchild forgive me if I am wrong but Elizabeth was three as Mark was in a month long coma and Christmas had to happen...it did not care that I hated the music, Santa, the tree and the subsuming memories of Mark at Christmas...but we survive...now I have lost Bobbie and I survive and live for this year with my grandchildren...sorry if this is too much...I wanted to attend your workshop because sometimes I feel that I have not grieved....good thoughts and hope to hear from you, jane
Thank you for sharing this journey, that photo, the text interchange, Hyper links to your mother-daughter published (& for humor ~ Siri heard me say “punished”; I have just edited punished to my intended word published) works about cancer as Mom/Daughter. Loving tight embrace to you and Annie AND to all who support both you AND Annie, xo, Sara
Cindy, I just sent this to my sister who is dealing with losing her daughter at 57...just diagnosed stage 4 everything...but this is my family who deals with everything with hope and humor...you could not have written a more encouraging note....sorry i missed you last week...we need a get together...jane
Humor is definitely a kind of love that can and should be spread. You have and share it, no matter what, and that matters. Thank you for that. Continuing to think about Annie and you and your whole family all the time.
You’re a freaking hero and a warrior and you’re funny as all get out! You are wise to recognize that humor is what keeps us sane. Thank you for continuing to share your spirit with us.
You are forever a humorist. What happens to you does not define you. Humor is a coping mechanism, and lord knows we need to find some way to keep getting up and battling those pesky dragons.
I feel so much sadness at what you’re both going through, and the effect it must have on your family, but my goodness, it’s so good that you’re writing about it. I think there is much healing in the sharing. Thank you.
Sometimes--many times, actually--humor is all we have and thank you for sharing yours even in the very dark times. It's the moment of relief, the small breath, the flicker of light we need to get through, over, and onward. Sending you all the good thoughts!

I agree that humor is a necessary element of the cancer journey - here is a link to my own attempt - stay strong!
