    Deb,



    I can still hear your wonderful laughter and see your beautiful smile. I'm looking at the picture I took of you in front of Niagra Falls during Pinkstock 2007. The picture is with me at work.



    I will miss you.



    You did indeed make a difference in all our lives. Thank you for being our friend and sister.

    Deb I will miss you so. I always knew that a post from you could lighten my heart no matter what my worries. I keep the circle girl power songs cd you made in my car. I listen to it often. It will always be a reminder of you and how you touched all our lives.

    Rest in peace dear friend.

    Hi Friends, I went to see my Cancer Dr and he ask me why I was here, I told him the ER sent me cause I was having trouble breathing, And the test showed red count down UT.infection and more. He said you should see your regular Dr for this. Look in my month felt my throat and you need b12 shot 1 a week and left,  I ask the nurse and she said he was upset cause the hospital sent me to him and not my regular Dr, So why am I losing  weight, weak, swollen, hard to breath and nothing wrong, Felt my neck! thats how he could tell about the thyroid tumors! I told the nurse that too. Not happy, But very tired, And will fight. Debbie    PS Our angel AlaskaDeb I need a hug!

    Dear Circle Sisters. Please allow me to wade into your sisterhood.

    I just got off Facebook and saw that Pammy's neighbor had posted there: that Pam was taken back to the hospital -- for the infection. The neighbor asks, on Pam's behalf for prayers.

    This was posted yesterday, I think (??)..... so not certain how accurate the info is for today, but I know that Pam is deserving of everyone's focused prayer.

    Those of you that know how to reach her, in real life, this might be just what the doctor ordered.

    Hang in there Deb - praying the new "cocktail" works.

    I spoke with Pammy yesterday - she is much better - don't worry about her - like you, she is a fighter.

    I have been away...I am so sorry... I've been in counseling, working, trying to bring life back into perspective and I am so, so very saddened by the news that has brought me back today. CY always smiled so when she talked of Alaska Deb, telling me stories of hope and humor...and I read that in her posts as well. I can't express how deeply it saddens me to know her fight is over. I have only the hope that her and CY and all the other gals are whooping it up in heaven as I type this, joyful to be reunited in the here after.

    I am travelling to Hawaii on the 19th of february... the date of CY's passing...I can't believe it's been an entire year with her gone already... I will be going with her ashes to fulfill her last request... to go home to Hawaii, where she was born... just one more time.

     I truly hope Alaska Deb has gone home one last time too... to a place of ever lasting comfort and joy... with no more pain and suffering.

    HUGS to all of you who continue the fight... and all who support, encourage, pray for, and do the hard work of crushing this beast and sending it out of our lives forever!!!!

    Please don't mind me if I say "I HATE CANCER!!!!!!"

    Charlie

    PS Slone Deb... please remember to tell your storm how big your God is! Keep fighting girl... never give in to the beast!!! Only give in to Gods great grace and work he can do in our lives... never the beast, never the cancer. KEEP fighting girl... everyone is here to listen, hold you up, pray for you, support you, but you gotta keep fighting! Pam I am praying hard for you too... I am praying for ALL of you! There has to be a day... and a way... we can win this fight forever!

    Hello Ladies,

    I am finally getting back on my feet.  After 11 additional days in the hospital for infection and then kidney failure, I am at home and finally feel better.  Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers while I was riding out my storm.  Still on the tailwinds of it as after I got home, I was allergic to the meds they sent me home with and now have the hives.  But I am so grateful that God helped me through.  Thank you all again for your friendship and your prayers.

    Slonedeb, although I haven't been on here in awhile, not a day has gone by that you haven't been on my mind and in my heart and prayers.  You are so very sick and I am so very sorry.  We all are.  I wish I could wave a magic wand and make this horror go away.  Sweetie you asked what we think you should do.  Do what your heart tells you.  You know what that is.  Only you know what that is.  At some point we must decide whether it is life alone we seek or life with some quality we might could enjoy and appreciate.  Talk to our Father in heaven and tell him your fears and ask Him to guide you.  I know He will.  In the meantime, know we are all lifting you up and holding you near to our hearts.  Always, Pam
