We are both a bit over tired already because we haven’t been sleeping too well, especially these past few nights. The anxiety and nerves are real, different for each of us, but present none the less. The back and forth of wanting this to just be over yet not wanting to deal with it all is a real struggle. We know we’ve got some long nights ahead but are ready for the second half of this fight to start so we can declare victory as soon as possible. And we will declare victory.
As I’ve mentioned the surgery is not starting until mid-morning. I’ll be sure to update the blog throughout the day so folks have updates too. Let me just take a moment to say we are completely aware and in awe of all the love and support that has been coming to us and is headed our way tomorrow. We feel it, we love every text, email or message, and appreciate all of the support and love that we have received. This would be impossible without support and I don’t use that word loosely. Impossible. Part of the reason we are confident going into tomorrow is for that exact reason – we know this cancer isn’t just fighting one person, it’s fighting all of our friends and family -the most amazing network of friends and family - with an enormous amount of prayers, energy and love. A lot more to come tomorrow...
