My name is Laurie McCloud Bright. I am 44 years old and have been diagnosed with Breast Cancer. This is my story.... Women are Angels, and when someone breaks our wings we simply continue to fly.....on a broomstick.....we are flexible like that. ((If you want to read from the beginning, go to the first post in January and read them in chronological order (that means oldest date first :) UPDATE: I HOPE TO HAVE BEAT BREAST CANCER!!! SO FAR SO GOOD!

I use to be a Planner.....
I quit making plans. I think it started this week. For the first time in my life I quit planning what happens next in my life as well as my family's life. I am a total planner too. I use to have almost every weekend planned. Now I don't plan anything because I am too afraid of being sick, and I HATE it. I have been avoiding people too, my friends and family. I don't want to be around them when I am sick...how depressing. I feel sorry for my kids and my husband cuz I feel like such a burden on them and I know that is wrong to feel on so many levels but it's what breast cancer has made me feel like and it is depressing and you do go to dark places. I really hate chemo and am having panic attacks about having to go to my next one, even though I know it is the start of the "better" chemo and not the really bad one. So I am having a bad, feel sorry for myself day. BUT, I am going to grab a tissue, wipe my eyes, blow my nose and pick out a bigger pair of underwear......cuz it's time I put my BIG GIRL PANTIES on and get better.

Laurie, I worked with your mom one day before Christmas and she shared your upcoming journey. I have been praying for you and your family since. I haven't walked in your shoes, and don't have the words, but I am sending hugs, prayers, and encouragement! ~Tamma P.
