So could anyone have guessed this one might be included in 31 Days? It is only because of those that have so generously supported this idea that it can happen. The 2nd Annual Think Pink event far exceeded any of my expectations and gets me super excited about where God is leading this ministry. For […]
Day 15: Buy Her Some Pink Gear
Every October 1st, I am pumped to see what UnderArmor will put out for its “Power in Pink” line. UnderArmor is certainly not the only pink gear I would wear, it just happens that it has been my favorite. Probably for reasons like “She is a Fighter” and “Go Pink or Go Home” that are […]
Day 14: Pray For Her
The importance of this idea was made real to us yet again this week as we learned of my mother-in-law being in the hospital in the Hawaii. Speaking of feeling helpless, nothing like being 5000 miles from her with nothing to offer but worry. But then I started listening to my own writing and realized I […]
Day 13: Throw Her A Hat and Scarf Party
That first meeting with the breast surgeon and my nurse navigator is a bit of a blur. This was when I was given my formal diagnosis of breast cancer even though all the other appointments earlier that week had been pointing to this fact. As I may have mentioned before, I pretty much shut down […]
Day 12: Be Her Community
At our church, we have been doing a very engaging sermon series called Built, Loaded and Launched about what we are called to be as “the church”. Today was all about the launch. Pastor Pat asked several great questions to bring up the point that the church is meant to provide us a filter based […]
Day 11: Share Your Art
I am big on visual reminders. I have always said that I would hope the memory of what we went through would not fade (okay well some of it is welcome to fade). But all the love we were shown, the way God carried us through, the fact that we can’t control everything, and the […]
Day 10: Bring Her A Smoothie
The other day, my friend, Cathy wrote a heartfelt and extremely generous Facebook status about how we met when we were both diagnosed with breast cancer within weeks of each other in the summer of 2011. She reminded me of the day that I went to visit her in the hospital the morning after her […]
Day 9: Remind Her Of God’s Promises
My mom, my daughter and I have the unique privilege to attend Bible Study Fellowship www.bsfinternational.org together every Thursday morning. Three generations studying the same thing at the same time, pretty cool huh? This year’s study is about the life of Moses. As you may or may not know, there was a pretty important calling on […]
Day 8: Make That Mammogram Appointment
It is late and I have worked a long day. To sit and write something meaningful about how I was cared for with A Hat/Scarf Party, a meal schedule that was filled for 6 months straight, or sent handwritten notes by people I had never met {SPOILER ALERT!}, would not do it proper justice. So […]
Day 7: Rub Her Back
I didn’t grow up with any sisters. I have two older brothers, and that served me well for my tomboyish, sports-loving childhood. It wasn’t like I sat pining for a sister, but there was a small part of me that always wondered what it would be like to know that kind of bond, to have […]
