I agree with Big Sis. Your faith will see you through anything, and your friends are here for you too.
You shouldn’t have to edit yourself on your own site, this should be a safe haven for you to express yourself.
I admire your strength, faith and courage under all circumstances. You Rock Sis, and keep writing because you continuously help many people.

Tracy, I don’t know the situation but the time that I have known you, you handle your decisions with rationality and dignity. I know that a lot of times in our lives, (more than we like to) we have to let go of people, for whatever reasons. I’ve had to do that too..yes it’s painful and I’ve cried about it a lot but I know it was the right thing to do. Keep strong, vigilant but most of all, always remain YOU!
Your faith will see you through it all.
My prayers, blessings, love and respect to you always!

TL, you capture so many of the emotions of cancer so well. Thank you for sharing your story. We are both so very fortunate in our husbands: strong, loving and caring. Continuing to drink out of my mug and Thanking God for you and praying for His will to be done in our lives.

Just when I think you haved touched and taught me more than I knew before, you do it again.
Thanks so much for sharing those stages. It’s totally different, but when I had my Crohn’s diagnosis, I went through alot of the same emotions.
I spent more time than you did on the anger, self-pity and fear but I believe like you said everyone deals with things differently. The thing that brought me around was the poem “Footprints”. My mom had put it up in our house after my uncle died of pancreatic cancer, and re-reading it I felt ashamed. I wasn’t dying, I still had a future that God would be with me for. It smartened me up, that’s for sure.
But I wasted alot of time before that. I will pray that Zena will beat her cancer, and be the mighty warrior that you are. God put you and her together for a reason, and I believe that you are a gift to her to learn from. As always I will be praying for and loving you, xo

I love this so much I actually swore when I finished reading it, I don’t know what came over me, LOL!
I sure wouldn’t want to go a Heaven that wouldn’t let in all of the pets I have ever had!
I count on seeing them again. “All creatures Great and Small” xo

Thanks for posting this..it’s quite a coincidence that God sent us a couple as friends, here in our tiny rural town, when Heidi fot Stage4 in 2008 after beating Stage 2 in 2004. Their names? Lyn and Mike!

And then he gave us you two as wonderful, inspiring friends this year, Tracy Lynn and Mike!

In 2008, Lyn was having a deadly ride with lymphoma and Mike with prostate cancer. They had us over for dinner and Lyn taught us the concept you wrote above: ‘choose your team carefully’. I remember asking Mike how he dealt with stress over Lyn’s cancer; he said he’s drive his backhoe on their property, dig a hole, then fill it in..over and over. Lyn still battles on and Mike’s robotic prostate cancer surgery seems to have worked (I happen to have the same doctor as him for my bladder cancer).

What you have learned, and are willing to share, blesses the world Tracy Lynn!! – Joe

Thanks Tracy for sharing that…and once again you do it with such grace. I hope Zena can find strength from this knowing all the feelings she’s going through are part of “the process” of dealing with cancer. The anger I understand completely…I have been going through some of that…no a lot of that lately for very different reasons…I hope I can get rid of it as easily as you were able to…believe me I’m trying! I hope you will continue to kick this cancer’s butt…you’ve done it for 2 plus years now and if anyone can it’s you! It’s easy to get mad at loved ones..they say “you always hurt the ones you love” but those are the ones that will stand by you through the test of time no matter what you’re going through…that’s the real test of love. I’m glad you have Mike and David and of course Kylee,they have proven their love for you everyday of their life with you! You just keep fighting and no matter what the outcome is you know you have given it your best fight with no regrets. Love & Hugs Patty

Tracy,
Thank you for sharing your story so eloquently. Sometimes it helps to know that I am not the only one who has those kinds of feelings. You remain in my prayers, as well as Mike and “Zena” (God knows who she is, and who I am praying for.) God bless Mike, I am so glad he is there for you, and he is in my prayers also. He seems like an exceptional person and a great support for you. This is a tough road that no one should have to go through. Sending you hugs and prayers and thanks again for sharing.
