Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...

Three more treatments. From the outside it may seem like a small number..but from my perspective..that's three too many. It's so hard to stay positive nowadays. My body is just so tired and I can feel it telling me "What the heck are you doing to me, Molly?". I realize that these last three treatments are keeping me from hopefully EVER having to go through this again. I just sometimes want to throw in the towel and say, my cancer is gone I'm not going to do this anymore! But, I've come to learn I'm alot stronger than I ever thought I could be. Just kind of tired of being strong...i'm ready for the easy life again!

Today I'm sitting in a cute little coffee shop in Garden City, KS. If you've never been to Garden City, I'll sum it up for you...stinky, dirty and lame. Theres way too many people to be living here for there to be so little to do. I mean, the nicest place to shop is an outlet JcPenney. Come onnnnnnn. But I stumbled upon this coffee shop my last time I was here. It's probably the best place to go in Garden..and nobody knows it yet.

Lately it seems like there is so much sad things happening. A friend of my sisters, Leslee, has a baby boy who has been battling sickness that just won't seem to go away. Doctors seem to have no solutions for them. I cannot look at pictures of baby Landon being hooked up to machines or hear about him getting IV's put into his little body without crying. I think I sympathize with him. I know first hand what it feels like to be poked, prodded, and stuck in a life you can't get away from. All you really want is life to be normal again. To be able to be play and laugh, knowing that it won't end tomorrow or next week when you end up back at the hospital again. You can find a link to Landon's page here. Check it out..read his story. Pray for him and his family. I promise you will be encouraged by how strong this little man is.
