It bubbled up to the surface
I found out today that the skin lesion was indeed cancer. I knew that. But Carrie still didn’t have the information about the markers; she said they’d have that for sure by Thursday morning, when I go in for chemo. So, the cancer bubbled up to the surface. I wish I knew what this meant, but I’ll have to wait another couple of days.
Today I was in St Louis for a trade show. It was hard to get through. My physical strength is just not there, and I think being away from home was more difficult than I thought it would be. Also, the show was not as big a success as we’d expected, which definitely didn’t help. Right now I’m collapsed in the hotel room. Can’t wait to get home.
All the notes to the blog and the emails that were sent to me from the last post were incredibly touching and meaningful. Sharing my thoughts and fears and hopes with you all makes me feel better, makes me feel not alone, like I’m fighting this with all of you. Thank you for being a part of this fight with me.

Rachel,
I don't quite know what to say but I want to say something. I'm sorry the trade show wasn't as you had hoped. As far as the lesion, let's just take one step at a time. You'll find out Thursday then let us know. From there we'll take a united front and keep the positive prayer coming your way. Hang in there cuz. Be strong and lean on those who love you dearly.
I've never responded to a blog - or even read one for that matter until yours. I'm surprised that I feel you are a real friend of mine, not a "virtual" one. I'm so impressed that you came up with LymphaDIVAS to turn your challenge into a benefit for others. That seems so typical of you. I'm sorry your trip wasn't as satisfying as you hoped. Maybe the news program will help with publicity. For now just take care of yourself friend. So many people care.
