Things really rough at the moment. I am having to dig really deep to keep on going forward. Mentally I feel very strong but physically my body is starting to cry out "ENOUGH!!" Thank goodness only 4 more treatments to go.
To add to all of this we had to have our dog, Emma put down this evening. At least she is no longer in any pain after struggling with arthritis for a number of years and at the weekend her hind legs started to give way. A cortisone injection helped a bit but to no avail. Emma was like a child to us and she will be really sorely missed.
I know that there are many who have been following my blog but have difficulty in leaving a comment. Not having a teenager around to ask "How does this work?" I had to work it out for myself. Maybe this will help:-

I do feel a little emotional at the moment and my brain is like mush. Cannot think of anything else I want to say. Until next time. Take care out there!!

  4. Dear Grant and Margi,
    Oh, I am so heart sore about Emma. She was always there, and when Margi and I had a "session" together she stayed with us!! I know the pain you are going through (I have been there so many times myself) I will hold Emma in the light.
    My thoughts and prayers are with you,
    luv & light, Jane Adams xxxxxxxxxx

  5. Dearest Grant & Margi,

    I have been praying silently for you to have strength to go through those gruelling sessions at radiation. I normally attend Margi's classes when she is in Durban. I was intrigued to learn about Emma's sad passing away. It interested me because my father was seriously ill after a botched operation to remove his gall bladder - he had gangrene. They cut his liver by mistake and he had to have 6 operations to repair the damage. All his organs failed. However, a cute black kitten came into our lives and stayed with him even when no one else could, giving him company, loving him, lying in his arms, curling around him, looking into his eyes with such divine love, licking him adoringly and so on. One day, when my dad was well on his way to recovering, there was an accident and the vet recommended we put Mischief down. It was the most difficult decision, we had him cremated and our hearts were wrenched out. Later we realised that he came into our lives for a purpose - those were the 9 months when he was needed the most to look after and provide companionship to my dad. My dad has fully recovered now and I know you will too! Angels blessings to you.
