Do Not Be Afraid of Tomorrow

“If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up or fight like hell.”

~Lance Armstrong

Mom, you have found the faith and the strength to ignore all odds and percentages. You have hope but most of all you have faith. I know that this week has been tough and that tomorrow's first chemo treatment is yet another unknown. I also know that you are strong and you are determined and you are going to fight like hell.


You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.

~Eleanor Roosevelt

Over the last several weeks, you have looked fear in the face and made it back down many times. Each time, I know that its takes a brief toll, but I also know that it is helping you gain strength, gain courage and gain confidence. Each experience is proving to you that you can take this. You can fight this. You can do this.

Do not be afraid of tomorrow; for God is already there.

~Author Unknown

I think that this quote says it all.

We love you Mom. We are here for you no matter what you need. We are thinking about you and praying with you every moment. You are going to do great things tomorrow. Once you take that first deep breath while sitting in that chair tomorrow, you will have already conquered another challenge in your journey. You will have stared fear down yet again. That will be one more unknown crossed off of your list. You can take this. You can fight this. You can do this. We are very proud of you. We love you very much.

All of Our Love,

Your Gang

    "God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear, even if earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea." Ps. 46:1-2
