MyPromise Day 4 "The Book"

Might as well take advantage of feeling wide awake at 2:09 am and write out today's blog! I don't want to be in the same predicament as yesterday...typing up my blog with only moments to spare in the day...I mean I like the little added excitement and all, but...come on!!! I don't need to feel stressed out over something that I want to do!

I was wondering what to write about until I read a few posts in our Stomach Cancer Warriors and Caregiver Family group site, it inspired me to share a story that happened just a few weeks ago. I had just met a woman named Kathryn, and we were talking about the cancers in the lives of people that we love, suddenly a look came over her face and she realized that she had something for me. Earlier that morning she had put a book in her car that she no longer needed, thinking that she may run into somebody that does. Did God tell her about the Stomach Cancer Family group? He must have whispered  in her ear that she would be meeting somebody that day who could use a book like this. "Do you think you would like to have this book?" she asked, and handed me "help me live - 20 things people with cancer want you to know." by Lori Hope. Tears welled up in my eyes, they are welling up right now, actually. "Really?" I said, "This is the perfect book for me right now."  Thank you God for introducing me to Kathyrn, and for this book!

I can't wait to share the lists that Lori Hope has created, she has a list of those "20 things people with cancer want you to know", but there are more lists, like "21 more things that people with cancer want you to know" and then, "16 fabulous things people did for and said to cancer patients", and and and....but before I can share with you I have to get permission from her publisher, so I will get right on that! What a journey that will be!!

Good night, bed is calling!
