Michelle,

I am truly sorry for the pain you are experiencing now. I lost my mother to cancer in 2000 and your news reminds me how terrible this disease is to all of us. The roughest part of cancer is seeing the entire circle of family and friends that also suffer. My heart goes out to you and Breanna during these most difficult times. I pray for God to comfort you and your family and to provide all that you need.

I know words can not ease the pain right now but I do want you to know that Marcy saw the face of Jesus. Your reward as her loving caregiver will be special, too! I will continue to pray for you and your family. May God Bless all of you.

Ed
