Hey everyone!

Since my Ovarian Cancer came back and I'm going through chemo again, I have a really bad "why bother" attitude. I know I need to snap out of it and quit grazing. I also have a 15 year old with a sassy mouth. I need to find other ways of  "dealing" than with food. God bless Joni

Hi Joni,, I'm so sorry that you have to do chemo again.... I don't think for a moment you are holding a pity party...just a little set back... If you remember when you were first diganosed, I responded to you...I am a twenty six year survivor of ovarian cancer...it can be done. Remember God leads you to it and will lead you through it. If I can help in any way please email me.. You're in my my prayers and thoughts
