MY LITTLE HOPE BEAR

Fort Worth, TX

I got a little bear when I was diagnosed with breast cancer by one of my co-workers. That was a little over 2 years ago. I took that bear with me everywhere. Well, it is very beat up now and my cat, Zeke, basically decided he wanted it. So, some of my employees bought me this little bear with wings last week. I took it with me today to the doctor to get my testing done. These little bears always raise my spirits. I should know the results in about a week. I was told I have to still go every 6 months for these tests due to having cancer cells in my lymph nodes 2 years ago. I won't get the yearly exams until I hit the 5 year mark. Rats! Oh well, I want to stay healthy so I will do what I must do. And, this bear will be going with me everywhere I do, just like my camera!

Cindi, thanks for sharing this touching story. It's not easy but I am sure in all God will always be there to take care of you. Take everything easy and live it well. This shot of the bear is pretty. I love bears, a sucker of them and will always do even if I live till 100 years old. Keep this bear next to you. He is your guiding angel sent from God to protect and give you comfort. Be strong.:D Vote~
