I know that every day, minute, second that goes by I miss Renee so much. I wonder and hope and know that we will see each other again one day. But, in the mean time the pain can be almost unbearable. Renee has two sisters and now three nephews who help me get though the days. Take Care! Gail

I am a student at the University of St Andrews, Scotland and I am currently doing a research project on the role of online blogs for individuals impacted by cancer. I was wondering whether I could talk to you about your opinions, I am especially interested in how bloggers can creatively express themselves(symbolically) in virtual environments and how important the blog design is in this process and why.But most importantly, how blogs can assist the individual in the healing process.
I hope that my research will promote online blogging as a critical resource and increase its awareness.

Please email me back if you would like to.
Thanks in advance :)
Laura

I don’t know how I missed the notification in my email box that this post was out…(Yes, I do..my inbox is OUT OF CONTROL.) I’m just finally reading it today. For some reason, your post is reminding me of seasons….guaranteed to change…although it does seem like the winter often lasts longer than it’s allotted time. Praying for you today.

A true proud mom. I now understand how my mom feels, thank you.

To love, success, joy and happiness.

My name is Liz and I have been following your blog for sometime now. I am happy to hear that your son is happy, finally, with a nice and charming lady. I hope she remains lovely and charming and that he will finally be happy with her.
That said, since your blog is a great resource for someone going through cancer I wanted to reach out to you to see if you were interested in a new online social support network (that I am the community manager of!) called I Had Cancer. It is a new and free social support network focused on connecting people based on experiences with cancer so that they can easily communicate with one another and share information. I would love to tell you more if you are interested, so please let me know! Because I was so struck by your writing I would love to send you an early-access pass with extra invites for others you may know going through this journey.

Either way, thank you so much for your writing. Take care and best regards.
-Liz@ihadcancer.com-If anyone would like info on I Had Cancer please email me.

It’s such an adjustment from being the mom who knows everything from when they are hungry to when a new tooth is breaking through. Where exactly did those years go anyway?

SO HAPPY for Ryan and for YOU! Thanks for sharing and putting into words what every mom of a young adult feels. Great job, Valerie!
