  You will do it because you are strong and persistent.  You will do it because you want to live, and even though the treatment sucks - BIG-TIME!!! you will do it because you know it will make you better.

  And if you are not strong enough to do it for yourself right now - than take my hand and we'll do it together...

  I'm thinking of you and holding you in my heart today.  I believe in you and in your strength. 

  Sending love your way - H.

  Hi sunshine,
  H. is right you know.
  Here are some reasons why you must continue...you will do it for your mom, You will do it for your brother and your dad.
   
  You must do it for your first daugther and your second one. You must do it for the promise of a son. You must live to meet the soulmate of your dreams and have the happily ever after that you once knew as a little girl...
   
  You must do it for the "I" deep down in the core of your 'me-myslef-and-I'...you will reemerge fortified. Strong. Humbled. Happy. Joyful. Tender. You will reemerge: ready. and then all your miracles with your name on them will be delivered because you have overcome and because you chose life.
  I am with you as well. We are an ARMY. wanna piece of us?
  I DON'T THINK SO!!!!!!

  Sunshine, you can do this.  I wish for you just a little more strength to hold on,  one day at a time.  For today you can do this.  I know it's so hard, but giving up is not an option.  {{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}

  I can only imagine what you must be going through, but I will say a little prayer for your strength and courage.  Please don't give in when the fight is not done.

  Maybe you just can't do it today.  I don't want you to give up, but everybody needs a break from time to time from a long fight.  Everybody needs a flop day.  I live with diabetes and although it's not as grueling or directly life-threatening as cancer, I know what it means to want to give up and lay down and forget it all.
  
  So okay.  For today, right now, throw up your hands.  Maybe that's your body's way of saying you need the physical and mental rest.
  
  But today is not every day.  Today is just ONE day.  It's not forevermore.  Instead of saying "I can't do this anymore," try saying "I can't do this today."  Then see where you are when you wake up tomorrow, or the next day. 
  
  You CAN do this, you will do it!  Right now you need to listen to your fatigue and take care of yourself, not just your body but your mind and your feelings too.

  Are you sure that's a good idea, Sunshine? Is chemo something you can put off now and again?
  Please take care of yourself.

  The wisest of words for this post have laready been typed. All I can add is that sometimes you need a moment to say, "Ah, crap, I have had enough of this BS. Screw it!" And then once that is out of your system the will to keep on fighting comes back and you will welcome that power because you will revel in the strength and see the results it brings, if not in your treatment then in the way the people around you feel and support you. Giving up makes it harder for all those who are pulling with you. So throw down something on the floor, shed a few tears of frustration, hang your head a moment and then slam your fist of determination on the table and say, "Hell with it. I am going to make that appointment!"
  
  Good luck.

  When I was 26 I was diagnosed with dysplasia of the colon, having severe sleep apnea and acid reflux along with gall stones.
  I suffered through 7 colonoscopies within one 5 day period. Followed the very next Monday with 2 major surgeries and more testing.
  After waiting 5 months and finally being able to eat mashed potatoes they did surgery on my nose/throat making me suffer through broth for another month or so. I began to hate jello and soft crud a lot.
  I vowed to never do it again and it cost me my first wife who waited through hell with me and left after I stated those words.
  I have had tests since and yes, I hated it. I have no idea what chemo feels like but, I know what almost dying does and if you want to still be here breathing and sharing with your family and friends get up and go back!
