Unreal



I think I know why I always put off starting to blog again. It seems every time I try to start back up, something bad happens. I have come to realize, something bad is always going to be happening, you can either continue to blog or give up.

I am so devastated. (And I know I am always dramatic, but this is for real.) My friend Sonya, I have mentioned her many times on here, have traveled with her family on vacations, etc, received just about the worst news you could today. Well, technically, she doesn't know it at the time I am typing this.

She has Glioblastoma. The worst cancer of the brain you can have. She has a husband that has had 7 (no joke) heart attacks, and is left to where much more, if any, further heart surgeries are not possible. And she has a soon to be 12 year old daughter, Liian. Thank God Liian has 2 wonderful aunts who can help her if this does not end in a gigantic miracle. The words 6 to 9 months are no where near sinking in yet.

Sonya passed out at work and was taken to the hospital this week, and boom, here they are. I was with her sister, Rena, tonight and we kept finding ourselves just quitting talking, whatever we were saying, and muttering "I can't believe we are even having to talk about this."

We had it in our minds and were prepared to hear something not well about Sonya's husband, as awful as that may sound. But not sonya. She is literally the healthiest person I know. Exercises, eats right, a total fitness and health inspiration to us all. Now this. It is almost the one year anniversary of Breezy's death, we nearly lost another young girl tonight in a wreck, and Sonya had brain surgery.

God is great, but sometimes life ain't good.
But we do it anyway.

Please remember this family in prayer and for guidance for all involved.

Good post, NeeNee. This has took the wind out of all our sails, but God is still on the throne. We must hold on to that. I love you and hope you get to feeling better. Love NanNan

That is just crazy. So much bad news lately.

That is what Mr. Daddy's mom had... glioblastoma just simply sucks. So sorry.

If you need anyone to talk to...
