Finding Light

For I am a creature of spirit and substance
These things are my heritage:
That the dawn will always follow night.
That the rain will bring forth growth.
That life is full of purpose.
And for these things I give thanks.


**********
A MOST IMPORTANT UPDATE:
I just received a phone call with the results from my second surgery last week: clear margins (meaning the area around the tumor was free of cancerous cells) and negative lymph nodes (meaning the cancer had not moved past my lymph nodes and into the rest of my body.
THIS IS THE BEST NEWS!
And I want to share it with you.
Thank you for the love and prayers, thank you from ever corner of my heart, from every inch of my body, and from every wisp of my soul.
The road to healing has TRULY begun!
