It only hurts when I ______. - Karen Feist's Blog

<P>I was going to say laugh, but it doesn't.&nbsp; Then, I thought pee, and laughed myself silly.&nbsp; Anyway, this a note asking for all the soupers to remember me in their prayers, thoughts, meditations, writings, and always, laughter.&nbsp;&nbsp; Positive energy sent through all of the available mediums is what I need right now as I embark on a life-changing, life-saving therapy to rid my body of stage 4 cancer.&nbsp; After just one week of very partial adherance to the Gerson therapy diet, my body PH level is over 7.5.&nbsp;&nbsp; Fear is just a pain in the butt, and sometimes gets me with it's comfy old familiar wrap of lies and 'old tapes' that I still keep in my mind (way in the back...lol), 'just in case.'&nbsp; I found out about my cancer 2 weeks ago and the prognoses is:&nbsp;"Six months to a year, treatment or no treatment."&nbsp;&nbsp; I am way too tall to die.&nbsp; I have so many people who love me, leaving now would be just plain rude.&nbsp; If nothing else, I should at least get a good poem out of this latest attempt on my life by the big bad wolf named (by Fran Dresser) "Cancer Schmancer!"&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Leaving for 10 days intensive treatment on Sunday.&nbsp; Thanks everyone!&nbsp; God bless and keep all of us, at least for another bunch of years.</P> <P>Love, light and peace to all, especially my family, who gets to love me through the good, the bad and the broke!</P> <P>Karen Feist</P>

Janette Fisher Date: 10/22/2009 10:15:00 AM Karen - Having lived under the shadow of my husbands cancer for the past three years I know how scary a time this can be. I'm not a big believer in god so I won't say that I will pray for you but I will think of you every day and send positive thoughts your way. My best wishes go to you and your family.
